An $n$-independent set in two dimensions is a set of nodes admitting (not necessarily unique) bivariate interpolation with polynomials of total degree at most $n.$ For an arbitrary $n$-independent node set $\mathcal X$ we are interested…

Let $\mathcal{F}_n$ be the set of unitary polynomials of degree $n \ge 2$ that have their roots in $\mathbb{Z}^*$. We note $$ Q(x) := x^n+a_{1}x^{n-1}+\dots+a_{n}. $$ We show that any two fixed consecutive coefficients $(a_{j},a_{j+1})$ ($j…

The existence of linear differential resolvents for z^alpha for any root z of an ordinary polynomial with coefficients in a given ordinary differential field has been established, where alpha is an indeterminate constant with respect to the…

We first show the existence of an effective determinantal representation for any univariate polynomial with real coefficients. Then, we more precisely establish that any univariate polynomial with real coefficients has an effective…

We give an explicit formula for the discriminant $\Delta_f (x)$ of the quadrinomials of the form $f (x)=x^n+ t (x^2+ax+b)$. The proof uses Bezoutians of polynomials.

We consider univariate real polynomials with all roots real and with two sign changes in the sequence of their coefficients which are all non-vanishing. One of the changes is between the linear and the constant term. By Descartes' rule of…

If $f$ is a polynomial with all of its roots on the real line, then the roots of the derivative $f'$ are more evenly spaced than the roots of $f$. The same holds for a real entire function of order~1 with all its zeros on a line. In…

The question of defining unique, generally applicable constrained second, and higher-order, derivatives is investigated. It is shown that second-order constrained derivatives obtained via two successive constrained differentiations provide…

We study a unitary analog to Redheffer's matrix. It is first proved that the determinant of this matrix is the unitary analogue to that of Redheffer's matrix. We also show that the coefficients of the characteristic polynomial may be…

For a commutative ring $R$, a polynomial $f\in R[x]$ is called separable if $R[x]/f$ is a separable $R$-algebra. We derive formulae for the number of separable polynomials when $R = \mathbb{Z}/n$, extending a result of L. Carlitz. For…

Up to linear transformations, we obtain a classification of permutation polynomials (PPs) of degree $8$ over $\mathbb{F}_{2^r}$ with $r>3$. By [J. Number Theory 176 (2017) 466-66], a polynomial $f$ of degree $8$ over $\mathbb{F}_{2^r}$ is…

We improve Mahler's lower bound for the Mahler measure in terms of the discriminant and degree for a specific class of polynomials: complex monic polynomials of degree $d\geq 2$ such that all roots with modulus greater than some fixed value…

We study a relation between distinction and special values of local invariants for representations of the general linear group over a quadratic extension of $p$-adic fields. We show that the local Rankin-Selberg root number of any pair of…

We investigate which polynomials can possibly occur as factors in the denominators of rational solutions of a given partial linear difference equation (PLDE). Two kinds of polynomials are to be distinguished, we call them /periodic/ and…

In this paper, we give sharp upper and lower bounds for the number of degenerate monic (and arbitrary, not necessarily monic) polynomials with integer coefficients of fixed degree $n \ge 2$ and height bounded by $H \ge 2$. The polynomial is…

This paper exhibits a very simple formula for a particular solution of a linear ordinary differential equation with constant real coefficients, P(d/dt)x = f, f a function given by a linear combination of polynomials, trigonometrical and…

In this paper, the result of applying iterative univariate resultant constructions to multivariate polynomials is analyzed. We consider the input polynomials as generic polynomials of a given degree and exhibit explicit decompositions into…

We give a product expansion for the Drinfeld discriminant function in arbitrary rank $r$, which generalizes the formula obtained by Gekeler for the rank 2 Drinfeld discriminant function. This enables one to compute the Fourier expansion of…

We derive raising and lowering operators for orthogonal polynomials on the unit circle and find second order differential and $q$-difference equations for these polynomials. A general functional equation is found which allows one to relate…

Most integers are composite and most univariate polynomials over a finite field are reducible. The Prime Number Theorem and a classical result of Gau{\ss} count the remaining ones, approximately and exactly. For polynomials in two or more…
