Let $f$ and $g$ be two monic polynomials with integer coefficients and nonzero resultant $r$. Assume that $v_p(f(n))\ge s_1$ and $v_p(g(n))\ge s_2$ hold for all integers $n$ for some $s_1, s_2$ fixed non-negative integers. Let $S$ denote…
We show that if two monic polynomials with integer coefficients have square-free resultant, then all positive divisors of the resultant arise as the greatest common divisor of the values of the two polynomials at a suitable integer.
We define $g(n)$ to be the maximal order of an element of the symmetric group on $n$ elements. Results about the prime factorization of $g(n)$ allow a reduction of the upper bound on the largest prime divisor of $g(n)$ to $1.328\sqrt{n\log…
We describe how to compute for two polynomials $f(X), g(X) \in \mathbb{Z}[X]$ with integer coefficients the greatest common divisors of $f(z)$ and $g(z)$ for all integers $z \in \mathbb{Z}$. As an application we determine the structures…
Let $N$ be a positive integer and let $S_N$ be the set of polynomials with integer coefficients, degree less than $N$, and minimal positive integral over $[0,1]$. D. Bazzanella initiated the study of $S_N$ because of its relation to the…
Let $f(x)=x^n+a_{n-1}x^{n-1}+\dots+a_0$ be an irreducible polynomial with integer coefficients. For a prime $p$ for which $f(x)$ is fully splitting modulo $ p$, we consider $n$ roots $r_i$ of $f(x)\equiv 0\bmod p$ with $0 \le r_1\le\dots\le…
Motivated by a question of Venkataramana, we consider the greatest common divisor of $\phi(f(n))$ where $f$ is a primitive polynomial with integer coefficients, and $n$ ranges over all natural numbers. Assuming Schinzel's hypothesis, we…
The prime divisors of a polynomial $P$ with integer coefficients are those primes $p$ for which $P(x) \equiv 0 \pmod{p}$ is solvable. Our main result is that the common prime divisors of any several polynomials are exactly the prime…
Let $S=\{p_1,\dots,p_s\}$ be a finite non-empty set of distinct prime numbers, let $f\in \mathbb{Z}[X]$ be a polynomial of degree $n\ge 1$, and let $S'\subseteq S$ be the subset of all $p\in S$ such that $f$ has a root in $\mathbb{Z}_p$.…
Given an integer $n \ge 2$, its prime factorization is expressed as $n= \prod_{i=1}^s p_i^{a_i}$. We define the function $f(n)$ as the smallest positive integer such that $f(n)!$ is divisible by $n$. The main objective of this paper is to…
A polynomial $p\in\mathbb{R}[x]$ is a divisor of some polynomial $0\neq f\in\mathbb{R}[x]$ with non-negative coefficients if and only if $p$ does not have a positive real root. The lowest possible degree of such $f$ for a given $p$ is known…
Every binomial coefficient aficionado knows that the greatest common divisor of the binomial coefficients $\binom n1,\binom n2,\dots,\binom n{n-1}$ equals $p$ if $n=p^i$ for some $i>0$ and equals 1 otherwise. It is less well known that the…
For a function field $K$ and fixed polynomial $F\in K[x]$ and varying $f\in F$ (under certain restrictions) we give a lower bound for the degree of the greatest prime divisor of $F(f)$ in terms of the height of $f$, establishing a strong…
Let $F(x)$ be an irreducible polynomial with integer coefficients and degree at least 2. For $x\ge z\ge y\ge 2$, denote by $H_F(x, y, z)$ the number of integers $n\le x$ such that $F(n)$ has at least one divisor $d$ with $y<d\le z$. We…
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…
In this paper, we obtain several new factorization results for certain classes of polynomials having integer coefficients. In doing so, we use the information about prime factorization of the value taken up by such polynomials and their…
We denote $\mathcal{P}$ = $\{P(x)|$ $P(n) \mid n!$ for infinitely many $n\}$. This article identifies some polynomials that belong to $\mathcal{P}$. Additionally, we also denote $P^+(m)$ as the largest prime factor of $m$. Then, a…
Let $\mathbb{F}_p$ be the finite field of prime order $p$. For any function $f \colon \mathbb{F}_p{}^n \to \mathbb{F}_p$, there exists a unique polynomial over $\mathbb{F}_p$ having degree at most $p-1$ with respect to each variable which…
Define B(n) to be the largest height of a polynomial in $\mathbb{Z}[x]$ dividing $x^n-1$. We formulate a number of conjectures related to the value of B(n) when $n$ is of a prescribed form. Additionally, we prove a lower bound for…
An intersective polynomial is a monic polynomial in one variable with rational integer coefficients, with no rational root and having a root modulo $m$ for all positive integers $m$. Let $G$ be a finite noncyclic group and let $r(G)$ be the…
