Let $f_1,\dots,f_k \in \mathbb{R}[X]$ be polynomials of degree at most $d$ with $f_1(0)=\dots=f_k(0)=0$. We show that there is an $n<x$ such that $\|f_i(n)\|\ll x^{-1/10.5kd(d-1)+o(1)}$ for all $1\le i\le k$. This improves on an earlier…
It is well known that for every $f\in C^m$ there exists a polynomial $p_n$ such that $p^{(k)}_n\rightarrow f^{(k)}$, $k=0,\ldots,m$. Here we prove such a result for fractional (non-integer) derivatives. Moreover, a numerical method is…
In a recent paper, Madritsch and Tichy established Diophantine inequalities for the fractional parts of polynomial-like functions. In particular, for $f(x)=x^k+x^c$ where $k$ is a positive integer and $c>1$ is a non-integer, and any fixed…
We provide an alternative exposition of a result due to Schinzel. Fix an integer $k \ge 2$. For almost all choices of positive integers $n_{1} < \cdots < n_{k}$, we show that the polynomial $F(x) = 1 + x^{n_{1}} + \cdots + x^{n_{k}}$,…
Let $k_i\ (i=1,2,\ldots,t)$ be natural numbers with $k_1>k_2>\cdots>k_t>0$, $k_1\geq 2$ and $t<k_1.$ Given real numbers $\alpha_{ji}\ (1\leq j\leq t,\ 1\leq i\leq s)$, we consider polynomials of the shape…
We study explicit continued fraction expansions for certain series. Some of these expansions have symmetry that generalizes some remarkable examples discovered independently by Kmosek and Shallit. Furthermore, we prove the following…
Questions concerning small fractional parts of polynomials and pseudo-polynomials have a long history in analytic number theory. In this paper, we improve on earlier work by Madritsch and Tichy. In particular, let $f=P+\phi$ where $P$ is a…
We consider the distance to the nearest integer of f(p), where f is a quadratic polynomial with irrational leading coefficient. This distance is very small as a function of p, for infinitely many primes p. We give a 14% improvement in the…
Let $D$ be a subset of a finite commutative ring $R$ with identity. Let $f(x)\in R[x]$ be a polynomial of positive degree $d$. For integer $0\leq k \leq |D|$, we study the number $N_f(D,k,b)$ of $k$-subsets $S\subseteq D$ such that…
In this article, we prove some factorization results for several classes of polynomials having integer coefficients, which in particular yield several classes of irreducible polynomials. Such classes of polynomials are devised by imposing…
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…
New and old results on closed polynomials, i.e., such polynomials f in K[x_1,...,x_n] that the subalgebra K[f] is integrally closed in K[x_1,...,x_n], are collected. Using some properties of closed polynomials we prove the following…
Let $f$ be a polynomial of degree $d>6$, with integer coefficients. Then the paucity of non-trivial positive integer solutions to the equation $f(a)+f(b)=f(c)+f(d)$ is established. The corresponding situation for equal sums of three like…
We study a new kind of symmetric polynomials P_n(x_1,...,x_m) of degree n in m real variables, which have arisen in the theory of numerical semigroups. We establish their basic properties and find their representation through the power sums…
Let ${\mathcal P}_k$ denote the set of all algebraic polynomials of degree at most $k$ with real coefficients. Let ${\mathcal P}_{n,k}$ be the set of all algebraic polynomials of degree at most $n+k$ having exactly $n+1$ zeros at $0$. Let…
We study the polynomial functions on tensor states in $(C^n)^{\otimes k}$ which are invariant under $SU(n)^k$. We describe the space of invariant polynomials in terms of symmetric group representations. For $k$ even, the smallest degree for…
We give an overview of combinatoric properties of the number of ordered $k$-factorizations $f_k(n,l)$ of an integer, where every factor is greater or equal to $l$. We show that for a large number $k$ of factors, the value of the cumulative…
Let K be F_q((T)), or more generally any field of characteristic p equipped with a valuation having a finite residue field of q elements. Then a polynomial f(x) in K[x] having k+1 nonzero coefficients has at most q^k distinct zeros in K. We…
The Kac polynomial $$f_n(x) = \sum_{i=0}^{n} \xi_i x^i$$ with independent coefficients of variance 1 is one of the most studied models of random polynomials. It is well-known that the empirical measure of the roots converges to the uniform…
In this note we aim to give a new, elementary proof of a statement that was first proved by Timofte. It says that a symmetric real polynomial $F$ of degree $d$ in $n$ variables is positive on $\R^n$ (on $\R^{n}_{\geq 0}$) if and only if it…
