For univariate polynomials over arbitrary field the degree gives an upper bound on the number of roots (factor theorem) and as a related result for any finite point-set one can construct a polynomial of degree equal to the cardinality…
Orthogonal polynomials on quadratic curves in the plane are studied. These include orthogonal polynomials on ellipses, parabolas, hyperbolas, and two lines. For an integral with respect to an appropriate weight function defined on any…
We introduce certain polynomials, so-called H.Weyl and H.Minkowski polynomials, which have a geometric origin. The location of roots of these polynomials is studied.
We raise a question on the existence of continuous roots of families of monic polynomials (by the root of a family of polynomials we mean a function of the coefficients of polynomials of a given family that maps each tuple of coefficients…
Lucas polynomials are polynomials in $s_1$ and $s_2$ defined recursively by $\{0\}=0$, $\{1\}=1$, and $\{m\}=s_1\{m-1\}+s_2\{m-2\}$ for $m \geq 2$. We generalize Lucas polynomials from 2-variable polynomials to multivariable polynomials.…
In this paper we consider linear combinations of two trivariate homogeneous polynomials of second degree. We formulate and solve two problems: i) Characterization of polynomials for which all linear combinations are factorizable. ii) How…
Interpolation theory for complex polynomials is well understood. In the non-commutative quaternionic setting, the polynomials can be evaluated "on the left" and "on the right". If the interpolation problem involves interpolation conditions…
We give formulas for the number of polynomials over a finite field with given root multiplicities, in particular in cases when the formula is surprisingly simple (a power of q). Besides this concrete interpretation, we also prove an…
The present paper is a continuation of [5], where Lie bialgebra structures on g[u] were studied. These structures fall into different classes labelled by the vertices of the extended Dynkin diagram of g. In [5] the Lie bialgebras…
We show how to construct linearizations of matrix polynomials $z\mathbf{a}(z)\mathbf{d}_0 + \mathbf{c}_0$, $\mathbf{a}(z)\mathbf{b}(z)$, $\mathbf{a}(z) + \mathbf{b}(z)$ (when $\mathrm{deg}\left(\mathbf{b}(z)\right) <…
In this paper we present an explicit formula for the number of permutations with a given number of alternating descents. Moreover, we study the interlacing property of the real parts of the zeros of the generating polynomials of these…
The binomial Eulerian polynomials, introduced by Postnikov, Reiner, and Williams, are $\gamma$-positive polynomials and can be interpreted as $h$-polynomials of certain flag simplicial polytopes. Recently, Athanasiadis studied analogs of…
We combine the known methods for univariate polynomial root-finding and for computations in the Frobenius matrix algebra with our novel techniques to advance numerical solution of a univariate polynomial equation, and in particular…
We show that if a real trigonometric polynomial has few real roots, then the trigonometric polynomial obtained by writing the coefficients in reverse order must have many real roots. This is used to show that a class of random trigonometric…
The polynomials with quaternion coefficients have two kind of roots: isolated and spherical. A spherical root generates a class of roots which contains only one complex number $z$ and its conjugate $\bar{z}$, and this class can be…
We consider each of the three classes of representations of cyclic groups that arise in the study of rational sphere maps. We study the possible number of terms for invariant polynomials with non-negative coefficients that are constant on…
We introduce G{\aa}rding polynomials, a class of real multivariate polynomials characterized by positivity regions that are invariant under translation by positive vectors and closed under strictly positive affine transformations. We prove…
Derivative polynomials in two variables are defined by repeated differentiation of the tangent and secant functions. We establish the connections between the coefficients of these derivative polynomials and the numbers of interior and left…
A hierarchy of matrix-valued polynomials which generalize the Jacobi polynomials is found. Defined by a Rodrigues formula, they are also products of a sequence of differential operators. Each class of polynomials is complete, satisfies a…
Theorem 1 is a formula expressing the mean number of real roots of a random multihomogeneous system of polynomial equations as a multiple of the mean absolute value of the determinant of a random matrix. Theorem 2 derives closed form…
