Half graphs and their variants, such as ladders, semi-ladders and co-matchings, are combinatorial objects that encode total orders in graphs. Works by Adler and Adler (Eur. J. Comb.; 2014) and Fabia\'nski et al. (STACS; 2019) prove that in…

The alliance polynomial of a graph $\Gamma$ with order $n$ and maximum degree $\delta_1$ is the polynomial $A(\Gamma; x) = \sum_{k=-\delta_1}^{\delta_1} A_{k}(\Gamma) \, x^{n+k}$, where $A_{k}(\Gamma)$ is the number of exact defensive…

The article [14] gives a list of 51 symplectic hypergeometric monodromy groups corresponding to primitive pairs of degree four polynomials, which are products of cyclotomic polynomials, and for which, the absolute value of the leading…

Let $f(x,y)$ be a real polynomial of degree $d$ with isolated critical points, and let $i$ be the index of $grad f$ around a large circle containing the critical points. An elementary argument shows that $|i| \leq d-1$. In this paper we…

Let $\Delta$ be an $n$-dimensional lattice polytope. The smallest non-negative integer $i$ such that $k \Delta$ contains no interior lattice points for $1 \leq k \leq n - i$ we call the degree of $\Delta$. We consider lattice polytopes of…

In each of the 10 cases with propagators of unit or zero mass, the finite part of the scalar 3-loop tetrahedral vacuum diagram is reduced to 4-letter words in the 7-letter alphabet of the 1-forms $\Omega:=dz/z$ and $\omega_p:=dz/…

Let $\mathbb K$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero, $A = \mathbb K[x_1,\dots,x_n]$ the polynomial ring, and let $W_n(\mathbb K)$ denote the Lie algebra of all $\mathbb K$-derivations on $A$. The Lie algebra $W_n :=…

A converse method to the Construction of Salem (1945) of convergent families of Salem numbers is investigated in terms of an association between Salem polynomials and Hurwitz quotients via expansive polynomials of small Mahler measure. This…

Let $r, \,m$ be positive integers. Let $x$ be a rational number with $0 \le x <1$. Consider $\Phi_s(x,z) =\displaystyle\sum_{k=0}^{\infty}\frac{z^{k+1}}{{(k+x+1)}^s}$ the $s$-th Lerch function with $s=1, 2, \cdots, r$. When $x=0$, this is a…

Let $K$ be an infinite field of characteristic different from two and let $U_1$ be the Lie algebra of the derivations of the algebra of Laurent polynomials $K[t,t^{-1}]$. The algebra $U_1$ admits a natural $\mathbb{Z}$-grading. We provide a…

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…

In his Ph.D. thesis, Cadegan-Schlieper constructs an invariant of the embedded topology of a line arrangement which generalizes the $\mathcal{I}$-invariant introduced by Artal, Florens and the author. This new invariant is called the loop…

The Mahler measure of a polynomial is a measure of complexity formed by taking the modulus of the leading coefficient times the modulus of the product of its roots outside the unit circle. The roots of a real degree $N$ polynomial chosen…

Let $P_1,\dots,P_k \colon {\bf Z} \to {\bf Z}$ be polynomials of degree at most $d$ for some $d \geq 1$, with the degree $d$ coefficients all distinct, and admissible in the sense that for every prime $p$, there exists integers $n,m$ such…

In two earlier papers, two of the present authors (A.G. and U.S.) extended Lai's [Ann. Probab. 2 (1974) 432--440] law of the single logarithm for delayed sums to a multiindex setting in which the edges of the $\mathbf{n}$th window grow like…

We study logarithmic integrals of the form $\int_0^1 x^i\ln^n(x)\ln^m(1-x)dx$. They are expressed as a rational linear combination of certain rational numbers $(n,m)_i$, which we call tiered binomial coefficients, and products of the zeta…

In the classical linear degeneracy testing problem, we are given $n$ real numbers and a $k$-variate linear polynomial $F$, for some constant $k$, and have to determine whether there exist $k$ numbers $a_1,\ldots,a_k$ from the set such that…

A proof for a conjecture by Shadrin and Zvonkine, relating the entries of a matrix arising in the study of Hurwitz numbers to a certain sequence of rational numbers, is given. The main tools used are iteration matrices of formal power…

Let the integers $1,\ldots,n$ be assigned colors. Szemer\'edi's theorem implies that if there is a dense color class then there is an arithmetic progression of length three in that color. We study the conditions on the color classes forcing…

Let $K_n$ be a tamely ramified cyclic quintic field generated by a root of Emma Lehmer's parametric polynomial. We give all normal integral bases for $K_n$ only by the roots of the polynomial, which is a generalization of the work of Lehmer…
