In this paper I prove a conjecture which gives a lower bound for the largest absolute value of the coefficients of the n-th cyclotomic polynomial for some n. Moreover this estimate is essentially sharp.

A number of the form $x(x+1)/2$ where $x$ is an integer is called a triangular number. Suppose, $N(a_1,\cdots,a_k;n)$ and $T(a_1,\cdots,a_k;n)$ denote the number of ways $n$ can be expressed as $\sum_{i=1}^k a_ix_i^2$ and $\sum_{i=1}^k…

Many upper bounds for the moduli of polynomial roots have been proposed but reportedly assessed on selected examples or restricted classes only. Regarding quality measured in terms of worst-case relative overestimation of the maximum…

We prove a new bound on the average sensitivity of polynomial threshold functions. In particular we show that a polynomial threshold function of degree $d$ in at most $n$ variables has average sensitivity at most…

We introduce different notions of polynomial convexity with bounds on degrees of polynomials in $\mathbb C^n$. We provide some examples in higher dimensions and show necessary and sufficient conditions for polynomial convexity with degree…

We have known that most sequences in $\mathcal{M}=\{1,2,\dots, M\}$ with length $n$ will miss $Me^{-\lambda}$ of the total numbers of $\{1,2,\dots,M\}$ as the ratio $n/M$ tends to $\lambda$. Now we consider a more general case where the…

One can associate to any bivariate polynomial P(X,Y) its Newton polygon. This is the convex hull of the points (i,j) such that the monomial X^i Y^j appears in P with a nonzero coefficient. We conjecture that when P is expressed as a sum of…

We combine transcendental methods and the modular approaches to the $ABC$ conjecture to show that the largest prime factor of $n^2+1$ is at least of size $(\log_2 n)^2/\log_3n$ where $\log_k$ is the $k$-th iterate of the logarithm. This…

For integers $m \geq 2$, we study divergent continued fractions whose numerators and denominators in each of the $m$ arithmetic progressions modulo $m$ converge. Special cases give, among other things, an infinite sequence of divergence…

We obtain general criteria for giving a lower bound on the degree of numbers of the form $\prod_{n=1}^\infty \left(1+\frac{b_n}{\alpha_n}\right)$ or of the form $\prod_{m=1}^\infty \left(1+ \sum_{n=1}^\infty…

We obtain improved Fourier restriction estimate for the truncated cone using the method of polynomial partitioning in dimension $n\geq 3$, which in particular solves the cone restriction conjecture for $n=5$, and recovers the sharp range…

In this paper, we show that the treewidth of the $n \times n$ toroidal grid is $2n-1$ for all $n \ge 5$. This closes the gap between the previously known upper bound of $2n-1$ (Ellis and Warren, DAM 2008) and the lower bound of $2n-2$…

There exist well-known tight bounds on the error between a function $f \in C^{\,n + 1}([-1, 1])$ and its best polynomial approximation of degree $n$. We show that the error meets these bounds when and only when $f$ is a polynomial of degree…

The Slope Conjecture relates the degree of the colored Jones polynomial to the boundary slopes of a knot. We verify the Slope Conjecture and the Strong Slope Conjecture for Montesinos knots $M(\frac{1}{r},\frac{1}{s-\frac{1}{u}},\frac{1}{t}…

Let $f\in\Bbb F_q[X_1,\dots,X_n]$ with $\deg f=d>0$ and let $Z(f)=\{(x_1,\dots,x_n)\in \Bbb F_q^n: f(x_1,\dots,x_n)=0\}$. Ax's theorem states that $|Z(f)|\equiv 0\pmod {q^{\lceil n/d\rceil-1}}$, that is, $\nu_p(|Z(f)|)\ge m(\lceil…

For $k\mid n$ let $Comb_{n,k}$ denote the tree consisting of an $(n/k)$-vertex path with disjoint $k$-vertex paths beginning at each of its vertices. An old conjecture says that for any $k=k(n)$ the threshold for the random graph $G(n,p)$…

We study the distributions of the splitting primes in certain families of number fields. The first and main example is the family Pn,N of integer polynomials monic of degree n with height less or equal then N, and then let N go to infinity.…

We classify the polynomials $f(x,y) \in \mathbb R[x,y]$ such that given any finite set $A \subset \mathbb R$ if $|A+A|$ is small, then $|f(A,A)|$ is large. In particular, the following bound holds : $|A+A||f(A,A)| \gtrsim |A|^{5/2}.$ The…

Let $\mathbf{A}$ be a finite nilpotent algebra in a congruence modular variety with finitely many fundamental operations. If $\mathbf{A}$ is of prime power order, then it is known that there is a polynomial $p$ such that for every $n \in…

We established the rate of convergence in the central limit theorem for stopped sums of a class of martingale difference sequences.
