We report extensive computational evidence that Gauss period equations are minimal discriminant polynomials for primitive elements representing Abelian (cyclic) polynomials of prime degrees $p$. By computing 200 period equations up to…
We obtain divisibility conditions on the multiplicative orders of elements of the form $\zeta + \zeta^{-1}$ in a finite field by exploiting a link to the arithmetic of real quadratic fields.
We continue to investigate which polynomials can possibly occur as factors in the denominators of rational solutions of a given partial linear difference equation. In an earlier article we had introduced the distinction between periodic and…
We present an elementary derivation of the period-three cycles for the real quadratic map $x\mapsto x^2+c$, a fundamental model in one-dimensional discrete dynamics. Using symmetric polynomials, we obtain a complete algebraic…
Iteration of the quadratic map produces sequences of polynomials whose degrees {\sl explode} as the orbital period grows more and more. The polynomial mixing all 335 period-12 orbits has degree $4020$, while for the $52,377$ period-20…
Arithmetic differential equations are analogues of algebraic differential equations in which derivative operators acting on functions are replaced by Fermat quotient operators acting on numbers. Now, various remarkable transcendental…
Bounding the number of preperiodic points of quadratic polynomials with rational coefficients is one case of the Uniform Boundedness Conjecture in arithmetic dynamics. Here, we provide a general framework that may reduce finding periodic…
The entropic discriminant is a non-negative polynomial associated to a matrix. It arises in contexts ranging from statistics and linear programming to singularity theory and algebraic geometry. It describes the complex branch locus of the…
We give a new combinatorial explanation for well-known relations between determinants and traces of matrix powers. Such relations can be used to obtain polynomial-time and poly-logarithmic space algorithms for the determinant. Our new…
We study period integrals of CY hypersurfaces in a partial flag variety. We construct a holonomic system of differential equations which govern the period integrals. By means of representation theory, a set of generators of the system can…
In this paper we propose a conseptual framework for the observed properties of discriminants of polylinear forms. The connection with classical problems of linear algebra is shown. A new class of algebraic varieties (hypergrassmanians) is…
Polynomial algebra offers a standard approach to handle several problems in geometric modeling. A key tool is the discriminant of a univariate polynomial, or of a well-constrained system of polynomial equations, which expresses the…
For a binary quadratic form $Q$, we consider the action of $\mathrm{SO}_Q$ on a two-dimensional vector space. This representation yields perhaps the simplest nontrivial example of a prehomogeneous vector space that is not irreducible, and…
While iterating the quadratic polynomial f_{c}(x)=x^{2}+c the degree of the iterates grows very rapidly, and therefore solving the equations corresponding to periodic orbits becomes very difficult even for periodic orbits with a low period.…
In an analogy with the Galois homothety property for torsion points of abelian varieties that was used in the proof of the Mordell-Lang conjecture, we describe a correspondence between the action of a Galois group and the dynamical action…
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…
We explicitly determine the values of reduced cyclotomic periods of order $2^m$, $m\ge 4$, for finite fields of characteristic $p\equiv 3$ or $5\pmod{8}$. These evaluations are applied to obtain explicit factorizations of the corresponding…
Given a sequence of complex numbers {\rho}_n, we study the asymptotic distribution of the sets of parameters c {\epsilon} C such that the quadratic maps z^2 +c has a cycle of period n and multiplier {\rho}_n. Assume 1/n.log|{\rho}_n| tends…
In the paper we partially solved the problem of the distribution of the discriminants of integral polynomials in the cubic case. We proved the asymptotic formula for the number of integral cubic polynomials having bounded height and bounded…
A general description of the Vi\`ete coefficients of the gaussian period polynomials is given, in terms of certain symmetric representations of the subgroups and the corresponding quotient groups of the multiplicative group…
