We investigate algebraic and arithmetic properties of a class of sequences of sparse polynomials that have binomial coefficients both as exponents and as coefficients. In addition to divisibility and irreducibility results we also consider…
We improve and simplify the result of the part 4 of "Counting curves and their projections" (Joachim von zur Gathen, Marek Karpinski, Igor Shparlinski) by showing that counting roots of a sparse polynomial over $\mathbb{F}_{2^n}$ is #P- and…
Let $p_{\min}$ denote the minimum of a polynomial $p$ over a (general) compact semialgebraic set $S \subseteq \mathbb{R}^n$. A standard way to approximate $p_{\min}$ is via hierarchies built from Positivstellens\"atze, which certify…
We propose the spectral degree exponent as a novel graph metric. Although Hofmeister \cite{HofmeisterThesis} has studied the same metric, we generalise Hofmeister's work to weighted graphs. We provide efficient iterative formulas and bounds…
The notion of the weighted degree of a polynomial is a basic tool in Affine Algebraic Geometry. In this paper, we study the properties of the weighted multidegrees of polynomial automorphisms by a new approach which focuses on stable…
We classify Artin-Schreier extensions of valued fields with non-trivial defect according to whether they are connected with purely inseparable extensions with non-trivial defect, or not. We use this classification to show that in positive…
Given two rational univariate polynomials, the Wasserstein distance of their associated measures is an algebraic number. We determine the algebraic degree of the squared Wasserstein distance, serving as a measure of algebraic complexity of…
A classical result states that if $f(z)$ is a polynomial of degree at most $n$ with nonnegative coefficients, then $f(z)$ has no zeros in the sector $|\arg(z)| < \frac{\pi}{n}$ of the complex plane, and the bound $\frac{\pi}{n}$ is tight.…
We discuss here some computational aspects of the Combinatorial Nullstellensatz argument. Our main result shows that the order of magnitude of the symmetry group associated with permutations of the variables in algebraic constraints,…
The height of an algebraic number $\alpha$ is a measure of how arithmetically complicated $\alpha$ is. We say $\alpha$ is totally $p$-adic if the minimal polynomial of $\alpha$ splits completely over the field $\mathbb{Q}_p$ of $p$-adic…
This paper investigates a category of constrained fractional optimization problems that emerge in various practical applications. The objective function for this category is characterized by the ratio of a numerator and denominator, both…
The number of square-free integers in $x$ consecutive values of any polynomial $f$ is conjectured to be $c_fx$, where the constant $c_f$ depends only on the polynomial $f$. This has been proven for degrees less or equal to 3. Granville was…
In this expository paper, we present simple proofs of the Classical, Real, Projective and Combinatorial Nullstellens\"atze. Several applications are also presented such as a classical theorem of Stickelberger for solutions of polynomial…
Let $X$ be a quasi-projective variety over a number field, admitting (after passage to $\mathbb{C}$) a geometric variation of Hodge structure whose period mapping has zero-dimensional fibers. Then the integral points of $X$ are sparse: the…
Let Pd,n denote the space of all real polynomials of degree at most d on R^n. We prove a new estimate for the logarithmic measure of the sublevel set of a polynomial P in Pd,1. Using this estimate, we prove a sharp estimate for a singular…
We introduce a new form of the polynomial method based on what we call "shift operators," which we use to give efficient and intuitive new proofs of results previously shown using a wide range of polynomial methods, including Alon's…
We consider a quasi-homogeneous polynomial $f \in \mathbb{Z}[x_0, \ldots, x_N]$ of degree $w$ equal to the degree of $x_0 \cdots x_N$ and show that the $F$-pure threshold of the reduction $f_p \in \mathbb{F}_p[x_0, \ldots, x_N]$ is equal to…
Previously Heyman and Shparlinski gave an asymptotic formula with error term for the number of Eisenstein polynomials of fixed degree and bounded height. Let $\psi(f)$ denote the number of primes for which a polynomial $f$ is Eisenstein. We…
Multi-degree splines are piecewise polynomial functions having sections of different degrees. They offer significant advantages over the classical uniform-degree framework, as they allow for modeling complex geometries with fewer degrees of…
For a class of sparse operators including majorants of singular integral, square function, and fractional integral operators in a uniform manner, we prove off-diagonal two-weight estimates of mixed type in the two-weight and…
