We study the Mahler measures of certain families of Laurent polynomials in two and three variables. Each of the known Mahler measure formulas for these families involves $L$-values of at most one newform and/or at most one quadratic…
The Mahler measure of a polynomial $P$ in $n$ variables is defined as the mean of $\log|P|$ over the $n$-dimensional torus. For certain polynomials with integer coefficients in two variables the Mahler measure is known to be related to…
We present an upper bound for the height of the mixed sparse resultant, defined as the logarithm of the maximum modulus of its coefficients. We obtain a similar estimate for its Mahler measure.
Sparse (or toric) elimination exploits the structure of polynomials by measuring their complexity in terms of Newton polytopes instead of total degree. The sparse, or Newton, resultant generalizes the classical homogeneous resultant and its…
We refine and extend a result by Tuitman on the supports of a Bezout identity satisfied by a finite sequence of sparse Laurent polynomials without common zeroes in the toric variety associated to their supports. When the number of these…
In this work, we are dealing with some properties relating the zeros of a polynomial and its Mahler measure. We provide estimates on the number of real zeros of a polynomial, lower bounds on the distance between the zeros of a polynomial…
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,…
In this survey, we give an overview of advances in the theory and computation of sparse resultants. First, we examine the construction and proof of the Canny-Emiris formula, which gives a rational determinantal formula. Second, we discuss…
We present formulas for computing the resultant of sparse polynomials as a quotient of two determinants, the denominator being a minor of the numerator. These formulas extend the original formulation given by Macaulay for homogeneous…
In this paper we prove that the Mahler measures of the Laurent polynomials $(x+x^{-1})(y+y^{-1})(z+z^{-1})+k$, $(x+x^{-1})^2(y+y^{-1})^2(1+z)^3z^{-2}-k$, and $x^4+y^4+z^4+1+k^{1/4}xyz$, for various values of $k$, are of the form $r_1…
This article investigates the Mahler measure of a family of 2-variate polynomials, denoted by $P_d, d\geq 1$, unbounded in both degree and genus. By using a closed formula for the Mahler measure introduced in "Volume function and Mahler…
The Mahler measures of certain polynomials of up to five variables are given in terms of multiple polylogarithms. Each formula is homogeneous and its weight coincides with the number of variables of the corresponding polynomial.
We study Laurent polynomials in any number of variables that are sums of at most $k$ monomials. We first show that the Mahler measure of such a polynomial is at least $h/2^{k-2}$, where $h$ is the height of the polynomial. Next, restricting…
We study a class of 2-variable polynomials called exact polynomials which contains $A$-polynomials of knot complements. The Mahler measure of these polynomials can be computed in terms of a volume function defined on the vanishing set of…
We consider the Mahler measure of the polynomial 1+x_1+x_2+x_3+x_4, which is the first case not yet evaluated explicitly. A conjecture due to F. Rodriguez-Villegas represents this Mahler measure as a special value at the point 4 of the…
We discuss several aspects of the dynamical Mahler measure for multivariate polynomials. We prove a weak dynamical version of Boyd--Lawton formula and we characterize the polynomials with integer coefficients having dynamical Mahler measure…
Littlewood polynomials are polynomials with each of their coefficients in {-1,1}. A sequence of Littlewood polynomials that satisfies a remarkable flatness property on the unit circle of the complex plane is given by the Rudin-Shapiro…
We prove that under certain explicit conditions, the Mahler measure of a three-variable polynomial can be expressed in terms of elliptic curve $L$-values and Bloch-Wigner dilogarithmmic values, conditionally on Beilinson's conjecture. In…
The Mahler measures of some n-variable polynomial families are given in terms of special values of the Riemann zeta function and a Dirichlet L-series, generalizing the results of \cite{L}. The technique introduced in this work also…
The Mahler measure of the polynomials $t(x^m-1) y - (x^n-1) \in \dC[x,y]$ is essentially the sum of volumes of a certain collection of ideal hyperbolic polyhedra in $\HH^3$, which can be determined a priori as a function on the parameter…
