We give an expression for the {\L}ojasiewicz exponent of a wide class of n-tuples of ideals $(I_1,..., I_n)$ in $\O_n$ using the information given by a fixed Newton filtration. In order to obtain this expression we consider a reformulation…

For a local singular plane curve germ $f(X,Y)=0$ we characterize all nonsingular $\lambda\in\bbC\{X,Y\}$ such that the {\L}ojasiewicz exponent of $\grad\,f$ is not attained on the polar curve $\bJ(\lambda,f)=0$. When $f$ is not Morse we…

A polynomial f (multivariate over a field) is decomposable if f = g(h) with g univariate of degree at least 2. We determine the dimension (over an algebraically closed field) of the set of decomposables, and an approximation to their number…

We develop a unified algebraic and valuative theory of Lojasiewicz exponents for pairs of graded families and filtrations of ideals. Within this framework, local Lojasiewicz exponents, gradient exponents, and exponents at infinity are all…

We present a new effective Nullstellensatz with bounds for the degrees which depend not only on the number of variables and on the degrees of the input polynomials but also on an additional parameter called the {\it geometric degree of the…

The representation of positive polynomials on a semi-algebraic set in terms of sums of squares is a central question in real algebraic geometry, which the Positivstellensatz answers. In this paper, we study the effective Putinar's…

We lift upper and lower estimates from linear functionals to $n$-homogeneous polynomials and using this result show that $l_\infty$ is finitely represented in the space of $n$-homogeneous polynomials, $n\ge2$, for any infinite dimensional…

Let $\Gamma$ be a finitely generated subgroup of the multiplicative group $\G_m^2(\bar{Q})$. Let $p(X,Y),q(X,Y)\in\bat{Q}$ be two coprime polynomials not both vanishing at $(0,0)$; let $\epsilon>0$. We prove that, for all $(u,v)\in\Gamma$…

We consider absolutely irreducible polynomials $f \in Z[x,y]$ with $\deg_x(f)=m$, $\deg_y(f)=n$ and height $H$. We show that for any prime $p$ with $p>c_{mn} H^{2mn+n-1}$ the reduction $f \bmod p$ is also absolutely irreducible. Furthermore…

Let $g(x)$ be a fixed non-constant complex polynomial. It was conjectured by Schinzel that if $g(h(x))$ has boundedly many terms, then $h(x)\in \C[x]$ must also have boundedly many terms. Solving an older conjecture raised by R\'enyi and by…

A univariate polynomial f over a field is decomposable if it is the composition f = g(h) of two polynomials g and h whose degree is at least 2. We determine the dimension (over an algebraically closed field) of the set of decomposables, and…
