We present an exact formula for the Mahler measure of an infinite family of polynomials with arbitrarily many variables. The formula is obtained by manipulating the integral defining the Mahler measure using certain transformations,…
Recently the problem of constructing a perfect Euler cuboid was related with three conjectures asserting the irreducibility of some certain three polynomials depending on integer parameters. In this paper a partial result toward proving the…
Let $f=a_0+ a_{1}x+\cdots+a_m x^m\in \Bbb{Z}[x]$ be a primitive polynomial. Suppose that there exists a positive real number $\alpha$ such that $|a_m| \alpha^m>|a_0|+|a_1|\alpha+\cdots+|a_{m-1}|\alpha^{m-1}$. We prove that if there exist…
Let $f$ be sampled uniformly at random from the set of degree $n$ polynomials whose coefficients lie in $\{ \pm 1\}$. A folklore conjecture, known to hold under GRH, states that the probability that $f$ is irreducible tends to $1$ as $n$…
C. F. Gauss discovered a beautiful formula for the number of irreducible polynomials of a given degree over a finite field. Assuming just a few elementary facts in field theory and the exclusion-inclusion formula, we show how one see the…
Let $E_k$ be the normalized Eisenstein series of weight $k$ on $\mathrm{SL}_{2}(\mathbb{Z})$. Let $\varphi_k$ be the polynomial that encodes the $j$-invariants of non-elliptic zeros of $E_k$. In 2001, Gekeler observed that the polynomials…
A celebrated result of Morse and Hedlund, stated in 1938, asserts that a sequence $x$ over a finite alphabet is ultimately periodic if and only if, for some $n$, the number of different factors of length $n$ appearing in $x$ is less than…
We prove that the Cayley-Menger determinant of an $n$-dimensional simplex is an absolutely irreducible polynomial for $n\geq3.$ We also study the irreducibility of polynomials associated to related geometric constructions.
We present a structure theorem for the multiple non-cyclotomic irreducible factors appearing in the family of all univariate polynomials with a given set of coefficients and varying exponents. Roughly speaking, this result shows that the…
For a given graph whose edges are labeled with general real numbers, we consider the set of functions from the vertex set into the Euclidean plane such that the distance between the images of neighbouring vertices is equal to the…
For a rational $q=u+\frac{\alpha}{d}$ with $u, \alpha, d\in \ACOBZ$ with $u\ge 0, 1\le \alpha<d$, $\gcd(\alpha, d)=1$, the \emph{generalized Hermite-Laguerre polynomials $G_q(x)$} are defined by \begin{align*} G_q(x)&=a_nx^n+a_{n-1}(\alpha…
We prove an irreducibility criterion for polynomials with power series coefficients generalizing previous known results concerning quasi-ordinary polynomials.
A polynomial is called self-reciprocal (or palindromic) if the sequence of its coefficients is palindromic. In this paper we obtain improved error bounds for the number of irreducible polynomials and self-reciprocal irreducible monic…
Let $n>1$ be an integer, $\alpha\in{\mathbb C}^n$, $b\in{\mathbb C}$, and $V$ a $\mathfrak{gl}_n$-module. We define a class of weight modules $F^\alpha_{b}(V)$ over $\sl_{n+1}$ using the restriction of modules of tensor fields over the Lie…
Let $d>m>1$ be integers, let $c_1,\dots, c_{m+1}$ be distinct complex numbers, and let $\mathbf{f}(z):=z^d+t_1z^{m-1}+t_2z^{m-2}+\cdots + t_{m-1}z+t_m$ be an $m$-parameter family of polynomials. We prove that the set of $m$-tuples of…
In a recent paper, Bary-Soroker, Koukoulopoulos and Kozma proved that when $A$ is a random monic polynomial of $\mathbb{Z}[X]$ of deterministic degree $n$ with coefficients $a_j$ drawn independently according to measures $\mu_j,$ then $A$…
Let (K, v) be a henselian valued field of arbitrary rank. In this paper, we give an irreducibility criterion for multivariate polynomials over K using valuation theory.
We show that the degree of the Alexander polynomial of an irreducible plane algebraic curve with nodes and cusps as the only singularities does not exceed ${5 \over 3}d-2$ where $d$ is the degree of the curve. We also show that the…
In this paper, we introduce a new family of symmetric polynomials which depends on a parameter r. They are defined by specifying certain of their zeros. For the parameter values 1/2, 1, and 2 they have an interpretation in terms of Capelli…
Hooley proved that if $f\in \Bbb Z [X]$ is irreducible of degree $\ge 2$, then the fractions $\{ r/n\}$, $0<r<n$ with $f(r)\equiv 0\pmod n$, are uniformly distributed in $(0,1)$. In this paper we study such problems for reducible…
