We classify the pairs of polynomials $f,g \in \mathbb{C}[X]$ having orbits satisfying infinitely many multiplicative dependence relations, extending a result of Ghioca, Tucker and Zieve. Moreover, we show that given $f_1,\ldots, f_n$ from a…
The ring of dual numbers over a ring $R$ is $R[\alpha] = R[x]/(x^2)$, where $\alpha$ denotes $x+(x^2)$. For any finite commutative ring $R$, we characterize null polynomials and permutation polynomials on $R[\alpha]$ in terms of the…
We give a characterization of common zeros of a sequence of univariate polynomials $W_n(z)$ defined by a recurrence of order two with polynomial coefficients, and with $W_0(z)=1$. Real common zeros for such polynomials with real…
We present a Suffridge-like extension of the Grace-Szeg\"o convolution theorem for polynomials and entire functions with only real zeros. Our results can also be seen as a $q$-extension of P\'olya's and Schur's characterization of…
The behaviour of real zeroes of the Hurwitz zeta function $$\zeta (s,a)=\sum_{r=0}^{\infty}(a+r)^{-s}\qquad\qquad a > 0$$ is investigated. It is shown that $\zeta (s,a)$ has no real zeroes $(s=\sigma,a)$ in the region $a…
Given a sequence of orthogonal polynomials $(p_n)_n$ with respect to a positive measure in the real line, we study the real zeros of finite combinations of $K+1$ consecutive orthogonal polynomials of the form $$…
Let $f(x)=x^{n}+ax^{3}+bx+c$ be the minimal polynomial of an algebraic integer $\theta$ over the rationals with certain conditions on $a,~b,~c,$ and $n.$ Let $K=\mathbb{Q}(\theta)$ be a number field and $\mathcal{O}_{K}$ be the ring of…
We show that a real homogeneous polynomial f(x,y) with distinct roots and degree d greater or equal than 3 has d real roots if and only if for any (a,b) not equal to (0,0) the polynomial af_x+bf_y has d-1 real roots. This answers to a…
Analogous to the use of sums of squares of certain real-valued special functions to prove the reality of the zeros of the Bessel functions J_\alpha(z) when \alpha \ge -1, confluent hypergeometric functions {}_0F_1(c; z) when c > 0 or 0 > c…
Two polynomials $f, g \in \mathbb{F}[x_1, \ldots, x_n]$ are called shift-equivalent if there exists a vector $(a_1, \ldots, a_n) \in \mathbb{F}^n$ such that the polynomial identity $f(x_1+a_1, \ldots, x_n+a_n) \equiv g(x_1,\ldots,x_n)$…
We consider the polynomials $\displaystyle f(x)=x^d+c$, where $d\ge 2$ and $c\in\mathbb Q$. It is conjectured that if $d=2$, then $f$ has no rational periodic point of exact period $N\ge 4$. In this note, fixing some integer $d\ge 2$, we…
The divisibility and congruence of usual and generalized central trinomial coefficients have been extensively investigated. The present paper is devoted to analytic properties of these numbers. We show that usual central trinomial…
We study linear transformations $T \colon \mathbb{R}[x] \to \mathbb{R}[x]$ of the form $T[x^n]=P_n(x)$ where $\{P_n(x)\}$ is a real orthogonal polynomial system. Such transformations that preserve or shrink the location of the complex zeros…
Let $f(x_1,...,x_k)$ be a polynomial over a field $K$. This paper considers such questions as the enumeration of the number of nonzero coefficients of $f$ or of the number of coefficients equal to $\alpha\in K^*$. For instance, if $K=\ff_q$…
In this paper we answer a question posed by C. A. Athanasiadis. Namely, we prove that the local $h$-polynomial of the $r$th edgewise subdivision of the $(n-1)$-dimensional simplex $2^V$ has only real zeros. In doing so we find a tool, using…
We use Grothendieck's dessins d'enfant to show that if $P$ and $Q$ are two real polynomials, any real function of the form $x^\alpha(1-x)^{\beta} P - Q$, has at most $\deg P +\deg Q + 2$ roots in the interval $]0,~1[$. As a consequence, we…
We consider a class of real random polynomials, indexed by an integer d, of large degree n and focus on the number of real roots of such random polynomials. The probability that such polynomials have no real root in the interval [0,1]…
Let $\mathcal{F}_{n}^*$ be the set of Boolean functions depending on all $n$ variables. We prove that for any $f\in \mathcal{F}_{n}^*$, $f|_{x_i=0}$ or $f|_{x_i=1}$ depends on the remaining $n-1$ variables, for some variable $x_i$. This…
The classical version of P\'olya's theorem provides a simple method for certifying that a homogeneous polynomial of degree d is strictly copositive, that is, it takes only positive values on the nonnegative real orthant. However, this…
Let f and g be nonconstant polynomials over an arbitrary field K. In this paper we study the intersection of the polynomial rings K[f] and K[g], and in particular we ask whether this intersection is larger than K. We completely resolve this…
