Univariate polynomials are called stable with respect to a domain $D$ if all of their roots lie in $D$. We study linear slices of the space of stable univariate polynomials with respect to a half-plane. We show that a linear slice always…
We give an explicit characterization of all minimal value set polynomials in $\F_q[x]$ whose set of values is a subfield $\F_{q'}$ of $\F_{q}$. We show that the set of such polynomials, together with the constants of $\F_{q'}$, is an…
We study the minimization of fixed-degree polynomials over the simplex. This problem is well-known to be NP-hard, as it contains the maximum stable set problem in graph theory as a special case. In this paper, we consider a rational…
A polynomial family $\{p_n(x)\}$ is Appell if it is given by $\frac{e^{xt}}{g(t)} = \sum_{n=0}^\infty p_n(x)t^n$ or, equivalently, $p_n'(x) = p_{n-1}(x)$. If $g(t)$ is an entire function, $g(0)\neq 0$, with at least one zero, the…
Asymptotic properties of solutions of difference equation of the form \[ \Delta^m(x_n+u_nx_{n+k})=a_nf(n,x_{\sigma(n)})+b_n \] are studied. We give sufficient conditions under which all solutions, or all solutions with polynomial growth, or…
We present a new positive lower bound for the minimum value taken by a polynomial P with integer coefficients in k variables over the standard simplex of R^k, assuming that P is positive on the simplex. This bound depends only on the number…
Recall that a $P$-set is a closed set $X$ such that the intersection of countably many neighborhoods of $X$ is again a neighborhood of $X$. We show that if $\mathfrak{t} = \mathfrak{c}$ then there is a minimal right ideal of $(\beta \mathbb…
We strengthen the Weierstrass approximation theorem by proving that any real-valued continuous function on an interval $I \subset \mathbb{R}$ can be uniformly approximated by a real-valued polynomial whose only (possibly complex) critical…
Let $\{X_{\mathbf{n}} : \mathbf{n}\in\mathbb{Z}^d\}$ be a weakly dependent stationary field with maxima $M_{A} := \sup\{X_{\mathbf{i}} : \mathbf{i}\in A\}$ for finite $A\subset\mathbb{Z}^d$ and $M_{\mathbf{n}} := \sup\{X_{\mathbf{i}} :…
An equicritical stratum is the locus of univariate monic squarefree complex polynomials where the critical points have prescribed multiplicities. Tracking the positions of both roots and critical points, there is a natural ``monodromy map''…
Let a and x denote tuples of (jointly) freely noncommuting variables. A square matrix valued polynomial p in these variables is naturally evaluated at a tuple (A,X) of symmetric matrices with the result p(A,X) a square matrix. The…
For a product of i.i.d. random maps or a memoryless stochastic flow on a compact space $X$, we find conditions under which the presence of locally asymptotically stable trajectories (e.g. as given by negative Lyapunov exponents) implies…
First we give here a simple proof of a remarkable result of Videnskii and Shirokov: let $B$ be a Blaschke product with $n$ zeros, then there exists an outer function $\phi, \phi(0)=1$, such that $\|(B\phi)'\| \leq C n$, where $C$ is an…
A noncommutative polynomial is stable if it is nonsingular on all tuples of matrices whose imaginary parts are positive definite. In this paper a characterization of stable polynomials is given in terms of strongly stable linear matrix…
A polynomial is called self-reciprocal (or palindromic) if the sequence of its coefficients is palindromic. In this paper we enumerate self-reciprocal irreducible monic polynomials over a finite field with prescribed leading coefficients.…
Let X be a homogeneous polynomial vector field of degree 2 on S^2. We show that if X has at least a non--hyperbolic singularity, then it has no limit cycles. We give necessary and sufficient conditions for determining if a singularity of X…
The best uniform polynomial approximation of the checkmark function $f(x)=|x-\alpha |$ is considered, as $\alpha$ varies in $(-1,1)$. For each fixed degree $n$, the minimax error $E_n (\alpha)$ is shown to be piecewise analytic in $\alpha$.…
We study asymptotic behavior of orthogonal polynomials on the unit circle with varying Verblunsky coefficients $\alpha_{n,N}$ when the ratio $n/N$ converges as $n,N\to\infty$. First, we give a streamlined proof of ratio asymptotics for…
Let $\xi$ be an analytic vector field in $\mathbb{R}^3$ with an isolated singularity at the origin and having only hyperbolic singular points after a reduction of singularities $\pi:M\to\mathbb{R}^3$. The union of the images by $\pi$ of the…
We show that, if a sequence of non-zero polynomials in $\mathbb{Z}[X_1,X_2]$ take small values at translates of a fixed point $(\xi,\eta)$ by multiples of a fixed rational point within the group $\mathbb{C}\times\mathbb{C}^*$, then $\xi$…
