We construct explicit (i.e., non-random) examples of Salem sets in $\mathbb{R}^2$ of dimension $s$ for every $0 \leq s \leq 2$. In particular, we give the first explicit examples of Salem sets in $\mathbb{R}^2$ of dimension $0 < s < 1$.…

We prove that there exist Salem numbers with trace $-3$ and every even degree $\geq 34$. Our proof combines a theoretical approach, which allows us to treat all sufficiently large degrees, with a numerical search for small degrees. Since it…

This article precisely defines huge proofs within the system of Natural Deduction for the Minimal implicational propositional logic \mil. This is what we call an unlimited family of super-polynomial proofs. We consider huge families of…

For a set $S$ of quadratic polynomials over a finite field, let $C$ be the (infinite) set of arbitrary compositions of elements in $S$. In this paper we show that there are examples with arbitrarily large $S$ such that every polynomial in…

We determine all graphs whose matching polynomials have at most five distinct zeros. As a consequence, we find new families of graphs which are determined by their matching polynomial.

H. Lenstra has pointed out that a cubic polynomial of the form (x-a)(x-b)(x-c) + r(x-d)(x-e), where {a,b,c,d,e} is some permutation of {0,1,2,3,4}, is irreducible modulo 5 because every possible linear factor divides one summand but not the…

We study the Coxeter polynomials associated with certain star-like trees. In particular, we exhibit large Salem factors of these polynomials and give convergence properties of their dominant roots.

Consider the $n$th degree polynomial equation, $X^n+A_{n-1}X^{n-1}+...+A_1X+A_0=0$ over the ring of 2 by 2 complex matrices. If this equation has more than ${2n \choose 2}$ solutions, then it has infinitely many solutions. We show here that…

Let $\epsilon\in \{-1,1\}$. A sequence of prime numbers $p_1, p_2, p_3, ...$, such that $p_i=2p_{i-1}+\epsilon$ for all $i$, is called a {\it Cunningham chain} of the first or second kind, depending on whether $\epsilon =1$ or -1…

A certain number of lists of small Salem numbers, some of which are certified as complete, are available online. Notably, the website of M. J. Mossinghoff features a list of 47 Salem numbers smaller than 1.3, as well as complete lists of…

We give a bound for the number of real solutions to systems of n polynomials in n variables, where the monomials appearing in different polynomials are distinct. This bound is smaller than the fewnomial bound if this structure of the…

We study linear divisibility sequences of order 4, providing a characterization by means of their characteristic polynomials and finding their factorization as a product of linear divisibility sequences of order 2. Moreover, we show a new…

We generalize the polynomial Szemer\'{e}di theorem to intersective polynomials over the ring of integers of an algebraic number field, by which we mean polynomials having a common root modulo every ideal. This leads to the existence of new…

This paper describes infinite sets of polynomial equations in infinitely many variables with the property that the existence of a solution or even an approximate solution for every finite subset of the equations implies the existence of a…

In this paper we prove a characterization of continuity for polynomials on a normed space. Namely, we prove that a polynomial is continuous if and only if it maps compact sets into compact sets. We also provide a partial answer to the…

It is demonstrated that each nearly neighbourly family of standard boxes in $\mathbb{R}^3$ has at most 12 elements. A combinatorial classification of all such families that have exactly 12 elements is given. All families satisfying an extra…

A polynomial whose coeffcients are equal to its roots is called a Ulam polynomial. In this paper we show that for a given degree n there exists a finite number of Ulam polynomials of degree n.

We show how to construct sparse polynomial systems that have non-trivial lower bounds on their numbers of real solutions. These are unmixed systems associated to certain polytopes. For the order polytope of a poset P this lower bound is the…

We identify a family of numbers for which the Bernoulli convolution is singular. Within this family we find two countable collections of Salem numbers in the interval $(1,2)$, and another Salem number and an algebraic integer that is…

By extending a construction due to Gross and McMullen [2], we show that for any odd integer n and for any even integer d>n+2 there are infinitely many Salem numbers $\alpha$ of degree d such that $\alpha^n-1$ is a unit. A similar result is…
