For each prime number $p$ one can associate a Fekete polynomial with coefficients $-1$ or $1$ except the constant term, which is 0. These are classical polynomials that have been studied extensively in the framework of analytic number…
Fekete polynomials associate with each prime number $p$ a polynomial with coefficients $-1$ or $1$ except the constant term, which is 0. These coefficients reflect the distribution of quadratic residues modulo $p$. These polynomials were…
We study sums of Dirichlet characters over polynomials in $\mathbb{F}_q[t]$ with a prescribed number of irreducible factors. Our main results are explicit formulae for these sums in terms of zeros of Dirichlet L-functions. We also exhibit…
In this article, we consider the polynomials of the form $f(x)=a_0+a_1x+a_2x^2+\cdots+a_nx^n\in \mathbb{Z}[x],$ where $|a_0|=|a_1|+\dots+|a_n|$ and $|a_0|$ is a prime. We show that these polynomials have a cyclotomic factor whenever…
The notion of block divisibility naturally leads one to introduce unitary cyclotomic polynomials $\Phi_n^*(x)$. They can be written as certain products of cyclotomic poynomials. We study the case where $n$ has two or three distinct prime…
We discuss a general approach producing quantitative bounds on the number of sign changes of the weighted sums $$\sum_{n\le x}f(n)w_n$$ where $f:\mathbb{N}\to \mathbb{R}$ is a family of multiplicative functions and $w_n\in\mathbb{R}$ are…
The $n^{th}$ cyclotomic polynomial $\Phi_n(x)$ is the minimal polynomial of an $n^{th}$ primitive root of unity. Its coefficients are the subject of intensive study and some formulas are known for them. Here we are interested in formulas…
In this article, we consider polynomials of the form $f(x)=a_0+a_{n_1}x^{n_1}+a_{n_2}x^{n_2}+\dots+a_{n_r}x^{n_r}\in \mathbb{Z}[x],$ where $|a_0|\ge |a_{n_1}|+\dots+|a_{n_r}|,$ $|a_0|$ is a prime power and $|a_0|\nmid |a_{n_1}a_{n_r}|$. We…
Let $f$ be a holomorphic or Maass cusp forms for $ \rm SL_2(\mathbb{Z})$ with normalized Fourier coefficients $\lambda_f(n)$ and \bna r_{\ell}(n)=\#\left\{(n_1,\cdots,n_{\ell})\in \mathbb{Z}^2:n_1^2+\cdots+n_{\ell}^2=n\right\}. \ena Let…
For a suitable irreducible \textit{base} polynomial $f(x)\in \mathbf{Z}[x]$ of degree $k$, a family of polynomials $F_m(x)$ depending on $f(x)$ is constructed with the properties: (i) there is exactly one irreducible factor $\Phi_{d,f}(x)$…
Let $D_n(x;a)$ and $E_n(x;a)\in\mathbb F_q[x]$ be Dickson polynomials of first and second kind respectively, where $\mathbb F_q$ is a finite field with $q$ elements. In this article we show explicitly the irreducible factors these…
We study how well Fekete polynomials $$ F_p(X) = \sum_{n=0}^{p-1} \left(\frac{n}{p}\right) X^n \in {\mathbb Z}[X] $$ with the coefficients given by Legendre symbols modulo a prime $p$, can be approximated by power series representing…
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 $F(x) = 1 + x^{n_{1}} + \cdots + x^{n_{k}}$,…
Define the $n$-th fibotomic polynomial to be the product of the monic irredicible factors of the $n$-th Fibonacci polynomial which are not factors of any Fibonacci polynomial of smaller degree. In this paper, we prove a number of properties…
We consider a certain class of multiplicative functions $f: \mathbb N \rightarrow \mathbb C$ and study the distribution of zeros of Dirichlet polynomials $F_N(s)= \sum_{n\le N} f(n)n^{-s}$ corresponding to these functions. We prove that the…
Using the cyclotomic identity we compute sums over d-tuples of monic polynomials in F_q[x] weighted by the multiplicity of their irreducible factors. As consequences we determine explicit expressions for the number of d-tuples of…
The authors study the distribution of zeros of the Fekete polynomial f_p(t) (defined for p prime) as p -> infinity. They show that asymptotically a constant fraction of the zeros lie on the unit circle, and they investigate the constant of…
We study some divisibility properties related to the factors of the discriminant of the characteristic polynomial of generalized Fibonacci sequences $(G_n)_{n\ge0}$ defined by $G_0=0$, $G_1=1$ and $G_n=pG_{n-1}+qG_{n-2}$ for $n\ge2$, where…
To study a Dirichlet polynomial $f(s)=\frac{a_{m}}{m^{s}}+\cdots +\frac{a_{n}}{n^{s}}$ by regarding it as a multivariate polynomial via the canonical map $\phi$ sending $p_i^{-s}$ to an indeterminate $X_i$, with $p_i$ the $i$th prime…
We explore some interesting features of the characteristic polynomial of the Cartan matrix of a simple Lie algebra. The characteristic polynomial is closely related with the Chebyshev polynomials of first and second kind. In addition, we…
