We present various constructions of sequences of polynomials satisfying the Binomial Theorem in finite characteristic based on the theory of additive polynomials. Various actions on these constructions are also presented. It is an open…

We prove a function field analogue of a conjecture of Schinzel on the factorization of univariate polynomials over the rationals. We derive from it a finiteness theorem for the irreducible factorizations of the bivariate Laurent polynomials…

Starting from Ritt's classical theorems, we give a survey of results in functional decomposition of polynomials and of applications in Diophantine equations. This includes sufficient conditions for the indecomposability of polynomials, the…

We give criteria for finite dimensionality or infinite dimensionality of the polynomial centralizer of the Lie algebra of a linear Lie group, in terms of invariants and relative invariants of the group. In the finite dimensional scenario…

Though algebraic geometry over $\mathbb C$ is often used to describe the closure of the tensors of a given size and complex rank, this variety includes tensors of both smaller and larger rank. Here we focus on the $n\times n\times n$…

In this work we derive important properties regarding matrix invariants which occur in the theory of differential equations with reflection.

We provide a multidimensional extension of previous results on the existence of polynomial progressions in dense subsets of the primes. Let $A$ be a subset of the prime lattice - the d-fold direct product of the primes - of positive…

Here we develop a technique of computing the invariants of $n-$ary forms and systems of forms using the discriminants of corresponding multilinear forms built of their partial derivatives, which should be cosidered as analogues of classical…

The construction of quantum knot invariants from solutions of the Yang--Baxter equation (R-matrices) is reviewed with the emphasis on a class of R-matrices admitting an interpretation in intrinsically three-dimensional terms.

In this paper we present theorems and applications of Wallis theorem related to trigonometric integrals.

We prove relative versions of many earlier results about almost invariant sets and splittings of groups. In particular, we prove a relative version of the algebraic torus theorem, and we prove the existence and uniqueness of relative…

Closely following recent ideas of J. Borcea, we discuss various modifications and relaxations of Sendov's conjecture about the location of critical points of a polynomial with complex coefficients. The resulting open problems are formulated…

We prove two "master" convolution theorems for multivariate determinantal polynomials. The methods used include basic properties of what we call a "minor-orthogonal" ensemble as well as properties of the mixed discriminant of matrices. We…

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 a coarse algebraic invariant for coarse groups and use it to differentiate various coarsifications of the group of integers. This lets us answer two questions posed by Leitner and the second author. The invariant is obtained by…

We discuss two simple but useful observations that allow the construction of modular forms from given ones using invariant theory. The first one deals with elliptic modular forms and their derivatives, and generalizes the Rankin-Cohen…

We survey the construction and properties of the Yamada polynomial of spatial graphs and present the Yamada polynomial formulae for some classes of graphs. Then we construct an infinite family of spatial graphs for which roots of Yamada…

We define a two-variable polynomial invariant of finite quandles. In many cases this invariant completely determines the algebraic structure of the quandle up to isomorphism. We use this polynomial to define a family of link invariants…

We develop a method to construct algebraic invariants for hypermatrices. We then construct hyperdeterminants and exhibit a generalization of the Cayley-Hamilton theorem for hypermatrices.

We develop a method for determining the density of squarefree values taken by certain multivariate integer polynomials that are invariants for the action of an algebraic group on a vector space. The method is shown to apply to the…
