This paper studies automorphisms and monomorphisms of direct products $\Gamma=\Gamma_1\times\cdots\times\Gamma_r$ of finitely generated virtually solvable minimax groups, a class containing all virtually polycyclic groups. Under an…
Let $R$ be a commutative ring, $f \in R[X_1,\ldots,X_k]$ a multivariate polynomial, and $G$ a finite subgroup of the group of units of $R$ satisfying a certain constraint, which always holds if $R$ is a field. Then, we evaluate $\sum…
A decomposition of a multigraph $G$ is a partition of its edges into subgraphs $G(1), \ldots , G(k)$. It is called an $r$-factorization if every $G(i)$ is $r$-regular and spanning. If $G$ is a subgraph of $H$, a decomposition of $G$ is said…
For any polynomial $P \in \mathbb{C}[X_1,X_2,...,X_n]$, we describe a $\mathbb{C}$-vector space $F(P)$ of solutions of a linear system of equations coming from some algebraic partial differential equations such that the dimension of $F(P)$…

A necessary condition for uniqueness of factorizations of elements of a finite group $G$ with factors belonging to a union of some conjugacy classes of $G$ is given. This condition is sufficient if the number of factors belonging to each…
We address two interrelated problems concerning the permutation of roots of univariate polynomials whose coefficients depend on parameters. First, we compute the Galois group of polynomials $\varphi(x)\in\mathbb{C}[y_1,\cdots,y_k][x]$ over…
Let $R=\oplus_{\Gamma\in\Gamma}R_{\gamma}$ be a $\Gamma$-graded $K$-algebra over a field $K$, where $\Gamma$ is a totally ordered semigroup, and let $I$ be an ideal of $R$. Considering the $\Gamma$-grading filtration $FR$ of $R$ and the…
Lascoux stated that the type A Kostka-Foulkes polynomials K_{lambda,mu}(t) expand positively in terms of so-called atomic polynomials. For any semisimple Lie algebra, the former polynomial is a t-analogue of the multiplicity of the dominant…
We present an algorithm to determine the Galois group of an irreducible monic polynomial $f(x) \in \mathbb{Z}[x]$ of degree at most five. Following work of Conrad, Dummit, and Stauduhar this comes down to answering two questions: Is a given…
Rational transformations of polynomials are extensively studied in the context of finite fields, especially for the construction of irreducible polynomials. In this paper, we consider the factorization of rational transformations with…
Let K<X> be a free associative algebra over a field K of characteristic 0 and let each of the noncommuting polynomials f,g generate its centralizer in K<X>. Assume that the leading homogeneous components of f and g are algebraically…
Let $D$ be a commutative domain with field of fractions $K$, let $A$ be a torsion-free $D$-algebra, and let $B$ be the extension of $A$ to a $K$-algebra. The set of integer-valued polynomials on $A$ is ${\rm Int}(A) = \{f \in B[X] \mid f(A)…
We introduce and investigate the category of factorization of a multiplicative, commutative, cancellative, pre-ordered monoid $A$, which we denote $\mathcal{F}(A)$. The objects of $\mathcal{F}(A)$ are factorizations of elements of $A$, and…
Let $K$ be an algebrically closed field and let $n\geq 1$. If $P\in K[X]=K[X_1,\ldots,X_n]$, $P\neq 0$, we denote by $I(P)$ the support of $P$, which is the finite subset of $\mathbb N^n$ such that $P=\sum_{i\in I(P)}a_iX^i$ with $a_i\in…

We say that a monic polynomial $f(x)\in {\mathbb Z}[x]$ of degree $N$ is monogenic if $f(x)$ is irreducible over ${\mathbb Q}$ and $\{1,\theta,\theta^2,\ldots ,\theta^{N-1}\}$ is a basis for ${\mathbb Z}_K$, the ring of integers of…
Let $F$ be a homogeneous form of degree $d$ in $n$ variables. A Waring decomposition of $F$ is a way to express $F$ as a sum of $d^{th}$ powers of linear forms. In this paper we consider the decompositions of a form as a sum of expressions,…
