Let R be a commutative ring with 1. For every homogeneous polynomial f(X_0,X_1,X_2) in R[X_0,X_1,X_2] of degree d <= 25, we find a explicit linear Pfaffian R-representation of f. We describe an empirical method that leads us to find such…
We construct bivariate orthogonal polynomials (OPs) on algebraic curves of the form $y^m = \phi(x)$ in $\mathbb{R}^2$ where $m = 1, 2$ and $\phi$ is a polynomial of arbitrary degree $d$, in terms of univariate semiclassical OPs. We compute…

The degree polynomial of a multigraph $G$ is given by $\sum _{v \in V(G)} x^{\mbox{deg}(v)}$. We investigate here properties of the roots of such polynomials. In addition to examining the roots for some families of graphs with few and many…

Given two general rational curves of the same degree in two projective spaces, one can ask whether there exists a third rational curve of the same degree that projects to both of them. We show that, under suitable assumptions on the degree…

The linear optimization degree gives an algebraic measure of complexity of optimizing a linear objective function over an algebraic model. Geometrically, it can be interpreted as the degree of a projection map on the {affine} conormal…
The aim of this paper is to show the possible Milnor numbers of deformations of semi-quasi-homogeneous isolated plane curve singularities. Main result states that if $f$ is irreducible and nondegenerate, by deforming $f$ one can attain all…
We compute log canonical thresholds of reduced plane curves of degree $d$ at points of multiplicity $d-1$. As a consequence, we describe all possible values of log canonical threshold that are less than $2/(d-1)$ for reduced plane curves of…

We derive inversion formulas involving orthogonal polynomials which can be used to find coefficients of differential equations satisfied by certain generalizations of the classical orthogonal polynomials. As an example we consider special…
In this note we provide an algorithm for computing the fractional integrals of orthogonal polynomials, which is more stable than that using the expression of the polynomials w.r.t. the canonical basis. This algorithm is aimed at solving…
A $\mathit{\text{moving frame}}$ at a rational curve is a basis of vectors moving along the curve. When the rational curve is given parametrically by a row vector $\mathbf{a}$ of univariate polynomials, a moving frame with important…
