For the family of polynomials in one variable $P:=x^n+a_1x^{n-1}+\cdots +a_n$, $n\geq 4$, we consider its higher-order discriminant sets $\{ \tilde{D}_m=0\}$, where $\tilde{D}_m:=$Res$(P,P^{(m)})$, $m=2$, $\ldots$, $n-2$, and their…

In this paper we investigate the following related problems: (A) the separation of $p$-adic roots of integer polynomials of a fixed degree and bounded height; and (B) counting integer polynomials of a fixed degree and bounded height with…

For the family of polynomials in one variable $P:=x^n+a_1x^{n-1}+\cdots +a_n$ we ask the questions at which points its discriminant set can be considered as the graph of a function of all coefficients $a_j$ but one and how its subset of…

Let $p$ be a prime. Suppose that integers $r$, $e$, $d$ such that $r \ge 2$, $e \ge 0$, $0 \le d \le p$ are given. Let $f(x)=s_0 x^r + s_1 x^{r-1} + \cdots + s_r$ be a generic polynomial of degree $r$ in characteristic $p$. We put…

Let $\mathcal D_{d,k}$ denote the discriminant variety of degree $d$ polynomials in one variable with at least one of its roots being of multiplicity $\geq k$. We prove that the tangent cones to $\mathcal D_{d,k}$ span $\mathcal D_{d,k-1}$…

In this paper, the discriminant of homogeneous polynomials is studied in two particular cases: a single homogeneous polynomial and a collection of n-1 homogeneous polynomials in n variables. In these two cases, the discriminant is defined…

Let $F(X,Y)=Y^d+a_1(X)Y^{d-1}+...+a_d(X)$ be a polynomial in $n+1$ variables $(X,Y)=(X_1,...,X_n,Y)$ with coefficients in an algebraically closed field K. Assuming that the discriminant $D(X)=\disc_Y F(X,Y)$ is nonzero we investigate the…

A class of self-inversive polynomials includes all the self-reciprocal polynomials. Let A denote the set of all self-reciprocal polynomials with n+1 coefficients. Let B denote the set of certain self-inversive and non self-reciprocal…

We consider the problem of complex root classification, i.e., finding the conditions on the coefficients of a univariate polynomial for all possible multiplicity structures on its complex roots. It is well known that such conditions can be…

We classify the discriminantly separable polynomials of degree two in each of three variables, defined by a property that all the discriminants as polynomials of two variables are factorized as products of two polynomials of one variable…

Let $K$ be a field. In this article, we derive a formula for the discriminant of a sequence $\{r_{A,n}+c r_{A,n-1}\}$ of polynomials. Here, $c \in K$ and $\{r_{A,n} \}$ is a sequence of polynomials satisfying a certain recurrence relation…

Let K be a field and let M_n(K) denote the space of n x n matrices with entries in K. Let M be a subspace of M_n(K) of dimension d with the property that there are elements in M with non-zero determinant. Given a basis of M, we define the…

In the paper we study the distribution of the discriminant $D(P)$ of polynomials $P$ from the class $\mathcal{P}_{n}(Q)$ of all integer polynomials of degree $n$ and height at most $Q$. We evaluate the asymptotic number of polynomials $P\in…

Let $p$ be a polynomial in non-commutative variables $x_1,x_2,\ldots,x_n$ with constant term zero over an algebraically closed field $K$. The object of study in this paper is the image of this kind of polynomial over the algebra of upper…

The characteristic polynomial of an $r$-tuple $(A_1,..., A_r)$ of $n \times n$ matrices is the determinant $\det(x_0 I + x_1 A_1 + ... + x_r A_r)$. We show that if $r$ is at least 3 and $A = (A_1,..., A_r)$ is an $r$-tuple of matrices in…

Consider a random polynomial $$ G_Q(x)=\xi_{Q,n}x^n+\xi_{Q,n-1}x^{n-1}+...+\xi_{Q,0} $$ with independent coefficients uniformly distributed on $2Q+1$ integer points $\{-Q, ..., Q\}$. Denote by $D(G_Q)$ the discriminant of $G_Q$. We show…

We exhibit explicit expressions, in terms of components, of discriminants, determinants, characteristic polynomials and polynomial identities for matrices of higher rank. We define permutation tensors and in term of them we construct…

Let $(x_n)_{n\geq0}$ be a linear recurrence sequence of order $k\geq2$ satisfying $$x_n=a_1x_{n-1}+a_2x_{n-2}+\dots+a_kx_{n-k}$$ for all integers $n\geq k$, where $a_1,\dots,a_k,x_0,\dots, x_{k-1}\in \mathbb{Z},$ with $a_k\neq0$. In 2017,…

We define the second discriminant $D_2$ of a univariate polynomial $f$ of degree greater than $2$ as the product of the linear forms $2\,r_k-r_i-r_j$ for all triples of roots $r_i, r_k, r_j$ of $f$ with $i<j$ and $j\neq k, k\neq i$. $D_2$…

For a semialgebraic set K in R^n, let P_d(K) be the cone of polynomials in R^n of degrees at most d that are nonnegative on K. This paper studies the geometry of its boundary. When K=R^n and d is even, we show that its boundary lies on the…
