We discuss the problem of classifying polynomials $p : \mathbb R^2_+ \rightarrow (0, \infty)$ for which $\frac{1}{p}=\{\frac{1}{p(m, n)}\}_{m, n \geq 0}$ is joint completely monotone, where $p$ is a linear polynomial in $y.$ We show that if…

A set $A$ in a finite dimensional Euclidean space is \emph{monovex} if for every two points $x,y \in A$ there is a continuous path within the set that connects $x$ and $y$ and is monotone (nonincreasing or nondecreasing) in each coordinate.…

If $\mathcal{C}$ is a cocomplete monoidal category in which tensoring from both sides preserves coequalizers, then the category of monoids over $\mathcal{C}$ is cocomplete. The same holds if $\mathcal{C}$ has regular factorizations and…

A well-known theorem of Quillen says that if $r(z,\bar{z})$ is a bihomogeneous polynomial on ${\mathbb{C}}^n$ positive on the sphere, then there exists $d$ such that $r(z,\bar{z}){\lVert z \rVert}^{2d}$ is a squared norm. We obtain…

Polynomials whose zeros are symmetric either to the real line or to the unit circle are very important in mathematics and physics. We can classify them into three main classes: the self-conjugate polynomials, whose zeros are symmetric to…

An irreducible polynomial over $\Bbb F_q$ is said to be normal over $\Bbb F_q$ if its roots are linearly independent over $\Bbb F_q$. We show that there is a polynomial $h_n(X_1,\dots,X_n)\in\Bbb Z[X_1,\dots,X_n]$, independent of $q$, such…

Given an odd prime $q$, a natural number $l$ and non-zero $q$-free integers $a_{1}, a_{2}, \ldots, a_{l}$, none of which are equal to $1$ or $-1$, we give necessary and sufficient conditions for the polynomial $\prod_{j=1}^{l} (x^{q} -…

Let E be a compact set of C of positive logarithmic capacity. Let us suppose that for every polynomial $P\not=id$ we have $P^{-1}(E)\not=E$. Then for all no constant polynomials f and g such that $f^{-1}(E)=g^{-1}(E)$ we have f=g.

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…

We investigate the quantitative relationship between nonnegative polynomials and sums of squares of polynomials. We show that if the degree is fixed and the number of variables grows then there are significantly more nonnegative polynomials…

For an arbitrary quiver Q and dimension vector d we prove that the dimension of the space of cuspidal functions on the moduli stack of representations of Q of dimension d over a finite field F_q is given by a polynomial in q with rational…

We show in this paper that the roots $x_1$ and $x_2$ of a scalar quadratic polynomial $ax^2+bx+c=0$ with real or complex coefficients $a$, $b$ $c$ can be computed in a element-wise mixed stable manner, measured in a relative sense. We also…

We call a polynomial monogenic if a root $\theta$ has the property that $\mathbb{Z}[\theta]$ is the full ring of integers in $\mathbb{Q}(\theta)$. Consider the two families of trinomials $x^n + ax + b$ and $x^n + cx^{n-1} + d$. For any…

Let $R$ be a commutative ring, $f \in R[X_1,\ldots,X_k]$ a multivariate polynomial, and $G$ a finite subgroup of the group of units of $R$ satisfying a certain constraint, which always holds if $R$ is a field. Then, we evaluate $\sum…

Let $f \in { \mathbb R} ( t) [x]$ be given by $ f(t, x) = x^n + t \cdot g(x) $ and $\beta_1 < \dots < \beta_m$ the distinct real roots of the discriminant $\Delta_{(f, x)} (t)$ of $f(t, x)$ with respect to $x$. Let $\gamma$ be the number of…

The well-known Hermite-Biehler theorem claims that a univariate monic polynomial s of degree k has all roots in the open upper half-plane if and only if s=p+iq where p and q are real polynomials of degree k and k-1 resp. with all real,…

It is well known that a random cosine polynomial $ V_n(x) = \sum_ {j=0} ^{n} a_j \cos (j x) , \ x \in (0,2 \pi) $, with the coefficients being independent and identically distributed (i.i.d.) real-valued standard Gaussian random variables…

A polynomial $A(q)=\sum_{i=0}^n a_iq^i$ is said to be unimodal if $a_0\le a_1\le \cdots \le a_k\ge a_{k+1} \ge \cdots \ge a_n$. We investigate the unimodality of rational $q$-Catalan polynomials, which is defined to be $C_{m,n}(q)=…

Let $\Psi_n(x)$ be the monic polynomial having precisely all non-primitive $n$th roots of unity as its simple zeros. One has $\Psi_n(x)=(x^n-1)/\Phi_n(x)$, with $\Phi_n(x)$ the $n$th cyclotomic polynomial. The coefficients of $\Psi_n(x)$…

A polynomial is called self-reciprocal (or palindromic) if the sequence of its coefficients is palindromic. In this paper we enumerate self-reciprocal irreducible monic polynomials over a finite field with prescribed leading coefficients.…
