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…
A conjecture of Odoni stated over Hilbertian fields $K$ of characteristic zero asserts that for every positive integer $d$, there exists a polynomial $f\in K[x]$ of degree $d$ such that for every positive integer $n$, each iterate $f^{\circ…
Given a field $K$ and $n > 1$, we say that a polynomial $f \in K[x]$ has newly reducible $n$th iterate over $K$ if $f^{n-1}$ is irreducible over $K$, but $f^n$ is not (here $f^i$ denotes the $i$th iterate of $f$). We pose the problem of…
We give a method of constructing polynomials of arbitrarily large degree irreducible over a global field F but reducible modulo every prime of F. The method consists of finding quadratic f in F[x] whose iterates have the desired property,…
Let~$E$ be a Hilbertian field of characteristic~$0$. R.W.K. Odoni conjectured that for every positive integer~$n$ there exists a polynomial~$f\in E[X]$ of degree~$n$ such that each iterate~$f^{\circ{k}}$ of~$f$ is irreducible and the Galois…
Let $f(x)$ be a monic polynomial in $\dZ[x]$ with no rational roots but with roots in $\dQ_p$ for all $p$, or equivalently, with roots mod $n$ for all $n$. It is known that $f(x)$ cannot be irreducible but can be a product of two or more…
Let K be a number field, and let lambda(x,t)\in K[x, t] be irreducible over K(t). Using algebraic geometry and group theory, we study the set of alpha\in K for which the specialized polynomial lambda(x,alpha) is K-reducible. We apply this…
Let $q\geqslant 2$ be a fixed prime power. We prove an asymptotic formula for counting the number of monic polynomials that are of degree $n$ and have exactly $k$ irreducible factors over the finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$. We also compare our…
Let $f$ be an irreducible polynomial of prime degree $p\geq 5$ over $\QQ$, with precisely $k$ pairs of complex roots. Using a result of Jens H\"{o}chsmann (1999), we show that if $p\geq 4k+1$ then $\Gal(f/\QQ)$ is isomorphic to $A_{p}$ or…
A method for generating irreducible polynomials of degree n over the finite field GF(2) is proposed. The irreducible polynomials are found by solving a system of equations that brings the information on the internal properties of the…
In this paper we present and analyse a construction of irreducible polynomials over odd prime fields via the transforms which take any polynomial $f \in \mathbf{F}_p[x]$ of positive degree $n$ to $\left(\frac{x}{k} \right)^n \cdot…
Let $\mathbb F_q$ be the finite field with $q$ elements, where $q$ is a power of a prime. We discuss recursive methods for constructing irreducible polynomials over $\mathbb F_q$ of high degree using rational transformations. In particular,…
We compute the Galois group of the splitting field $F$ of any irreducible and separable polynomial $f(x)=x^6+ax^3+b$ with $a,b\in K$, a field with characteristic different from two. The proofs require to distinguish between two cases:…
A number field $K$ is called \emph{monogenic} if its ring of integers $\mathbb{Z}_K$ can be expressed as a simple ring extension $\mathbb{Z}[\alpha]$ for some $\alpha \in \mathbb{Z}_K$. A monic irreducible polynomial $f(x)\in\mathbb{Z}[x]$…
Let K be a field of characteristic p>0, and let q be a power of p. We determine all polynomials f in K[t]\K[t^p] of degree q(q-1)/2 such that the Galois group of f(t)-u over K(u) has a transitive normal subgroup isomorphic to PSL_2(q),…
This article is studying the roots of the reliability polynomials of linear consecutive-\textit{k}-out-of-\textit{n}:\textit{F} systems. We are able to prove that these roots are unbounded in the complex plane, for any fixed $k\ge2$. In the…
Given a global field $K$ and a positive integer $n$, we present a diophantine criterion for a polynomial in one variable of degree $n$ over $K$ not to have any root in $K$. This strengthens the known result that the set of non-$n$-th-powers…
We count the number of irreducible polynomials in several variables of a given degree over a finite field. The results are expressed in terms of a generating series, an exact formula and an asymptotic approximation. We also consider the…
We prove an effective form of Hilbert's irreducibility theorem for polynomials over a global field $K$. More precisely, we give effective bounds for the number of specializations $t\in \mathcal{O}_K$ that do not preserve the irreducibility…
Let $F$ be a field of prime characteristic $p$ and let $q$ be a power of $p$. We assume that $F$ contains the finite field of order $q$. A $q$-polynomial $L$ over $F$ is an element of the polynomial ring $F[x]$ with the property that those…
