Let $f$ be a homogeneous polynomial with rational coefficients in $d$ variables. We prove several results concerning uniform simultaneous approximation to points on the graph of $f$, as well as on the hypersurface $\{f(x_1,\dots,x_d) =…

We use functions of a bicomplex variable to unify the existing constructions of harmonic morphisms from a 3-dimensional Euclidean or pseudo-Euclidean space to a Riemannian or Lorentzian surface. This is done by using the notion of…

Hilbert's 17th problem asks that whether every nonnegative polynomial can be a sum of squares of rational functions. It has been answered affirmatively by Artin. However, the question as to whether a given nonnegative polynomial is a sum of…

We introduce W-spin structures on a Riemann surface and give a precise definition to the corresponding W-spin equations for any quasi-homogeneous polynomial W. Then, we construct examples of nonzero solutions of spin equations in the…

We consider degree-d forms on the Euclidean unit sphere. We specialize to our setting a genericity result by Nie obtained in a more general framework. We exhibit an homogeneous polynomial Res in the coefficients of f , such that if Res(f) =…

We investigate projection constants for spaces of bihomogeneous harmonic and bihomogeneous polynomials on the unit sphere in finite-dimensional complex Hilbert spaces. Using averaging techniques, we demonstrate that the minimal norm…

The Schm\"udgen's Positivstellensatz gives a certificate to verify positivity of a strictly positive polynomial $f$ on a compact, basic, semi-algebraic set $\mathbf{K} \subset \mathbb{R}^n$. A Positivstellensatz of this type is called…

In Ehrhart theory, the well-known sign pattern problem asks: given a positive integer $d\geq 3$ and integers $1 \leq i_1 < \cdots < i_k \leq d-2$, does there exist a $d$-dimensional integral polytope $\mathcal{P}$ such that in its Ehrhart…

We link the study of positive quantum maps, block positive operators, and entanglement witnesses with problems related to multivariate polynomials. For instance, we show how indecomposable block positive operators relate to biquadratic…

This article discusses the existence problem of a compact quotient of a symmetric space by a properly discontinuous group with emphasis on the non-Riemannian case. Discontinuous groups are not always abundant in a homogeneous space $G/H$ if…

Let $S \subseteq \mathbb{R}^n$ be a compact semialgebraic set and let $f$ be a polynomial nonnegative on $S$. Schm\"udgen's Positivstellensatz then states that for any $\eta > 0$, the nonnegativity of $f + \eta$ on $S$ can be certified by…

We show that existence of a global polynomial Lyapunov function for a homogeneous polynomial vector field or a planar polynomial vector field (under a mild condition) implies existence of a polynomial Lyapunov function that is a sum of…

For a bounded domain $D$ and a real number $p>0$, we denote by $A^p(D)$ the space of $L^p$ integrable holomorphic functions on $D$, equipped with the $L^p$- pseudonorm. We prove that two bounded hyperconvex domains $D_1\subset \mc^n$ and…

We prove several results on homogeneous plurisubharmonic polynomials on $\mathbb{C}^n$, $n\in\mathbb{Z}_{\geq 2}$. Said results are relevant to the problem of constructing local bumpings at boundary points of pseudoconvex domains of finite…

Let $(X,d,\mu )$ be a space of homogeneous type in the sense of Coifman and Weiss, i.e. $d$ is a quasi metric on $X$ and $\mu $ is a positive measure satisfying the doubling condition. Suppose that $u$ and $v$ are two locally finite…

Let $f$ be a semi-weighted-homogeneous polynomial having an isolated singularity at 0. Let $\alpha_{f,k}$ be the spectral numbers of $f$ at 0. By Malgrange and Varchenko there are non-negative integers $r_k$ such that the $\alpha_{f,k}-r_k$…

Existing guarantees for algorithms sampling from nonlogconcave measures on $\mathbb{R}^d$ are generally inexplicit or unscalable. Even for the class of measures with logdensities that have bounded Hessians and are strongly concave outside a…

A univariate trace polynomial is a polynomial in a variable x and formal trace symbols Tr(x^j). Such an expression can be naturally evaluated on matrices, where the trace symbols are evaluated as normalized traces. This paper addresses…

A multivariate polynomial $p(x)=p(x_1,...,x_n)$ is sos-convex if its Hessian $H(x)$ can be factored as $H(x)= M^T(x) M(x)$ with a possibly nonsquare polynomial matrix $M(x)$. It is easy to see that sos-convexity is a sufficient condition…
