Disconnected groups of Lie type as Galois groups.
∗ Research partially supported by INTAS grant 97-1644A real polynomial of one real variable is hyperbolic (resp. strictly hyperbolic) if it has only real roots (resp. if its roots are real and distinct). We prove that there are 116 possible non-degenerate configurations between the roots of a degree 5 strictly hyperbolic polynomial and of its derivatives (i.e. configurations without equalities between roots). The standard Rolle theorem allows 286 such configurations. To obtain the result we study...
We give explicit formulas for reducing the problem of determining whether a given 2-cocycle is a coboundary and if so finding a lifting 1-cochain to a system of norm equations.
Let be polynomials in variables without a common zero. Hilbert’s Nullstellensatz says that there are polynomials such that . The effective versions of this result bound the degrees of the in terms of the degrees of the . The aim of this paper is to generalize this to the case when the are replaced by arbitrary ideals. Applications to the Bézout theorem, to Łojasiewicz–type inequalities and to deformation theory are also discussed.
