We consider properties of polynomials with coefficients in division rings. A theorem on the decomposition of a polynomial with coefficients in an arbitrary division ring is obtained. It is shown that if a non-central element is not a root…

Free resolutions of ideals in commutative rings provide valuable insights into the complexity of these ideals. In 1966, Taylor constructed a free resolution for monomial ideals in polynomial rings, which Gemeda later showed admits a…

Our overall goal is to unify and extend some results in the literature related to the approximation of generating functions of finite and infinite sequences over a field by rational functions. In our approach, numerators play a significant…

In this technical report we describe a general class of monoids for which (sub)sequential rational can be characterised in terms of a congruence relation in the flavour of Myhill-Nerode relation. The class of monoids that we consider can be…

Fix an odd prime $p$. If $r$ is a positive integer and $f$ a polynomial with coefficients in $\mathbb{F}_{p^r}$, let $P_{p,r}(f)$ be the proportion of $\mathbb{P}^1(\mathbb{F}_{p^r})$ that is periodic with respect to $f$. We show that as…

We prove some new instances of a conjecture of Bachoc, Couvreur and Z\'emor that generalizes Freiman's $3k-4$ Theorem to a multiplicative version in a function field setting. As a consequence we find that if $F$ is a rational function field…

Let $(K,\nu)$ be an arbitrary valued field with valuation ring $R_{\nu}$ and $L=K(\alpha)$, where $\alpha$ is a root of a monic irreducible polynomial $f\in R_{\nu}[x]$. In this paper, we characterize the integral closedness of…

We prove a number of conjectures due to Dinesh Thakur concerning sums of the form $\sum_P h(P)$ where the sum is over monic irreducible polynomials $P$ in $\mathbb{F}_q[T]$, the function $h$ is a rational function and the sum is considered…

Given a polynomial matrix P(x) of grade g and a rational function $x(y) = n(y)/d(y)$, where $n(y)$ and $d(y)$ are coprime nonzero scalar polynomials, the polynomial matrix $Q(y) :=[d(y)]^gP(x(y))$ is defined. The complete eigenstructures of…

We extend some classical results - such as Quillen's Theorem A, the Grothendieck construction, Thomason's Theorem and the characterisation of homotopically cofinal functors - from the homotopy theory of small categories to polynomial monads…

We consider the Chow ring with rational coefficients of the Jacobian of a curve. Assume D is a divisor in a base point free g^r_d of the curve such that the canonical divisor K is a multiple of the divisor D. We find relations between…

Weyl group multiple Dirichlet series are Dirichlet series in $r$ complex variables, with analytic continuation to $\mathbb{C}^r$ and a group of functional equations isomorphic to the Weyl group of a reduced root system of rank $r$. Such…

We develop the theory of minimal realizations and factorizations of rational functions where the coefficient space is a ring of the type introduced in our previous work, the scaled quaternions, which includes as special cases the…

Let $k$ be a field and $x,y$ indeterminates over $k$. Let $R=k[x^a,x^{p_1}y^{s_1},\ldots,x^{p_t}y^{s_t},y^b] \subseteq k[x,y]$. We calculate the Hilbert polynomial of $(x^a,y^b)$. The multiplicity of this ideal provides part of a criterion…

Let $G$ be a finite 2-group and $K$ be a field satisfying that (i) $\fn{char}K\ne 2$, and (ii) $\sqrt{a}\in K$ for any $a\in K$. If $G$ acts on the rational function field $K(x,y,z)$ by monomial $K$-automorphisms, then the fixed field…

We prove Dirichlet's theorem for polynomial rings: Let F be a pseudo algebraically closed field. Then for all relatively prime polynomials a(X), b(X)\in F[X] and for every sufficiently large positive integer n there exist infinitely many…

Let $\mathbb{K}$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero and let $\mathbb{K}_{C}[[x_{1},...,x_{e}]]$ be the ring of formal power series in several variables with exponents in a line free cone $C$. We consider irreducible…

We strengthen the classical approximation theorems of Weierstrass, Runge and Mergelyan by showing the polynomial and rational approximants can be taken to have a simple geometric structure. In particular, when approximating a function $f$…

The notion of symmetry in polynomial rings with several indeterminates is generalized to polynomial rings over finite fields. Families of extensions of the projective line over a finite field of constants possessing this property are…

Concrete two-set (module-like and algebra-like) algebraic structures are investigated from the viewpoint that the initial arities of all operations are arbitrary. Relations between operations arising from the structure definitions, however,…
