Journal de Théorie des Nombres de Bordeaux

Similarity:

In this note, we give simple examples of sets $𝒮$ of quadratic forms that have minimal $𝒮$ -universality criteria of multiple cardinalities. This answers a question of Kim, Kim, and Oh [KKO05] in the negative.

The factorization of $f (x) x^{n} + g (x)$ with $f (x)$ monic and of degree $\leq 2$ .

Joshua Harrington, Andrew Vincent, Daniel White (2013)

Journal de Théorie des Nombres de Bordeaux

Similarity:

In this paper we investigate the factorization of the polynomials $f (x) x^{n} + g (x) \in ℤ [x]$ in the special case where $f (x)$ is a monic quadratic polynomial with negative discriminant. We also mention similar results in the case that $f (x)$ is monic and linear.

Extending piecewise polynomial functions in two variables

Andreas Fischer, Murray Marshall (2013)

Annales de la faculté des sciences de Toulouse Mathématiques

Similarity:

We study the extensibility of piecewise polynomial functions defined on closed subsets of $ℝ^{2}$ to all of $ℝ^{2}$ . The compact subsets of $ℝ^{2}$ on which every piecewise polynomial function is extensible to $ℝ^{2}$ can be characterized in terms of local quasi-convexity if they are definable in an o-minimal expansion of $ℝ$ . Even the noncompact closed definable subsets can be characterized if semialgebraic function germs at infinity are dense in the Hardy field of definable germs. We also present a piecewise...

Zero points of quadratic matrix polynomials

Opfer, Gerhard, Janovská, Drahoslava

Similarity:

Our aim is to classify and compute zeros of the quadratic two sided matrix polynomials, i.e. quadratic polynomials whose matrix coefficients are located at both sides of the powers of the matrix variable. We suppose that there are no multiple terms of the same degree in the polynomial $𝐩$ , i.e., the terms have the form $𝐀_{j} 𝐗^{j} 𝐁_{j}$ , where all quantities $𝐗, 𝐀_{j}, 𝐁_{j}, j = 0, 1, ..., N,$ are square matrices of the same size. Both for classification and computation, the essential tool is the description of the polynomial $𝐩$ by a matrix...

Weighted Erdős-Kac type theorem over quadratic field in short intervals

Xiaoli Liu, Zhishan Yang (2022)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Similarity:

Let $𝕂$ be a quadratic field over the rational field and $a_{𝕂} (n)$ be the number of nonzero integral ideals with norm $n$ . We establish Erdős-Kac type theorems weighted by $a_{𝕂} {(n)}^{l}$ and $a_{𝕂} {(n^{2})}^{l}$ of quadratic field in short intervals with $l \in ℤ^{+}$ . We also get asymptotic formulae for the average behavior of $a_{𝕂} {(n)}^{l}$ and $a_{𝕂} {(n^{2})}^{l}$ in short intervals.

On nonsingular polynomial maps of ℝ²

Nguyen Van Chau, Carlos Gutierrez (2006)

Annales Polonici Mathematici

Similarity:

We consider nonsingular polynomial maps F = (P,Q): ℝ² → ℝ² under the following regularity condition at infinity $(J_{\infty})$ : There does not exist a sequence $(p_{k}, q_{k}) \subset ℂ ²$ of complex singular points of F such that the imaginary parts $(ℑ (p_{k}), ℑ (q_{k}))$ tend to (0,0), the real parts $(ℜ (p_{k}), ℜ (q_{k}))$ tend to ∞ and $F (ℜ (p_{k}), ℜ (q_{k}))) \to a \in ℝ ²$ . It is shown that F is a global diffeomorphism of ℝ² if it satisfies Condition $(J_{\infty})$ and if, in addition, the restriction of F to every real level set $P^{- 1} (c)$ is proper for values of |c| large enough.

Polynomials with values which are powers of integers

Rachid Boumahdi, Jesse Larone (2018)

Archivum Mathematicum

Similarity:

Let $P$ be a polynomial with integral coefficients. Shapiro showed that if the values of $P$ at infinitely many blocks of consecutive integers are of the form $Q (m)$ , where $Q$ is a polynomial with integral coefficients, then $P (x) = Q (R (x))$ for some polynomial $R$ . In this paper, we show that if the values of $P$ at finitely many blocks of consecutive integers, each greater than a provided bound, are of the form $m^{q}$ where $q$ is an integer greater than 1, then $P (x) = {(R (x))}^{q}$ for some polynomial $R (x)$ .

Heights of squares of Littlewood polynomials and infinite series

Artūras Dubickas (2012)

Annales Polonici Mathematici

Similarity:

Let P be a unimodular polynomial of degree d-1. Then the height H(P²) of its square is at least √(d/2) and the product L(P²)H(P²), where L denotes the length of a polynomial, is at least d². We show that for any ε > 0 and any d ≥ d(ε) there exists a polynomial P with ±1 coefficients of degree d-1 such that H(P²) < (2+ε)√(dlogd) and L(P²)H(P²)< (16/3+ε)d²log d. A similar result is obtained for the series with ±1 coefficients. Let $A_{m}$ be the mth coefficient of the square f(x)² of...

Sumsets in quadratic residues

I. D. Shkredov (2014)

Acta Arithmetica

Similarity:

We describe all sets $A \subseteq_{p}$ which represent the quadratic residues $R \subseteq_{p}$ in the sense that R = A + A or R = A ⨣ A. Also, we consider the case of an approximate equality R ≈ A + A and R ≈ A ⨣ A and prove that A is then close to a perfect difference set.

A set on which the Łojasiewicz exponent at infinity is attained

Jacek Chądzyński, Tadeusz Krasiński (1997)

Annales Polonici Mathematici

We show that for a polynomial mapping $F = (f ₁, . . ., f ₘ) : ℂ^{n} \to ℂ^{m}$ the Łojasiewicz exponent $_{\infty} (F)$ of F is attained on the set $z \in ℂ^{n} : f ₁ (z) \cdot . . . \cdot f ₘ (z) = 0$ .

Explicit bounds for the Łojasiewicz exponent in the gradient inequality for polynomials

Didier D&#039;Acunto, Krzysztof Kurdyka (2005)

Annales Polonici Mathematici

Similarity:

Let f: ℝⁿ → ℝ be a polynomial function of degree d with f(0) = 0 and ∇f(0) = 0. Łojasiewicz’s gradient inequality states that there exist C > 0 and ϱ ∈ (0,1) such that ${| \nabla f | \geq C | f |}^{ϱ}$ in a neighbourhood of the origin. We prove that the smallest such exponent ϱ is not greater than $1 - R {(n, d)}^{- 1}$ with $R (n, d) = d {(3 d - 3)}^{n - 1}$ .

Hodge type decomposition

Wojciech Kozłowski (2007)

Annales Polonici Mathematici

Similarity:

In the space $Λ^{p}$ of polynomial p-forms in ℝⁿ we introduce some special inner product. Let $H^{p}$ be the space of polynomial p-forms which are both closed and co-closed. We prove in a purely algebraic way that $Λ^{p}$ splits as the direct sum $d * (Λ^{p + 1}) \oplus δ * (Λ^{p - 1}) \oplus H^{p}$ , where d* (resp. δ*) denotes the adjoint operator to d (resp. δ) with respect to that inner product.

On the distribution of the roots of polynomial $z^{k} - z^{k - 1} - \dots - z - 1$

Carlos A. Gómez, Florian Luca (2021)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

Similarity:

We consider the polynomial $f_{k} (z) = z^{k} - z^{k - 1} - \dots - z - 1$ for $k \geq 2$ which arises as the characteristic polynomial of the $k$ -generalized Fibonacci sequence. In this short paper, we give estimates for the absolute values of the roots of $f_{k} (z)$ which lie inside the unit disk.

Unique decomposition for a polynomial of low rank

Edoardo Ballico, Alessandra Bernardi (2013)

Annales Polonici Mathematici

Similarity:

Let F be a homogeneous polynomial of degree d in m + 1 variables defined over an algebraically closed field of characteristic 0 and suppose that F belongs to the sth secant variety of the d-uple Veronese embedding of $ℙ^{m}$ into $ℙ^{\binom{m + d}{d} - 1}$ but that its minimal decomposition as a sum of dth powers of linear forms requires more than s summands. We show that if s ≤ d then F can be uniquely written as $F = M ₁^{d} + \dots + M_{t}^{d} + Q$ , where $M ₁, . . ., M_{t}$ are linear forms with t ≤ (d-1)/2, and Q is a binary form such that $Q = \sum_{i = 1}^{q} l_{i}^{d - d_{i}} m_{i}$ with $l_{i}$ ’s linear forms...

Acta Arithmetica

Similarity:

We prove that for every ε > 0 and every nonnegative integer w there exist primes $p_{1}, . . ., p_{w}$ such that for $n = p_{1} . . . p_{w}$ the height of the cyclotomic polynomial $Φ_{n}$ is at least $(1 - ε) c_{w} M_{n}$ , where $M_{n} = \prod_{i = 1}^{w - 2} p_{i}^{2^{w - 1 - i} - 1}$ and $c_{w}$ is a constant depending only on w; furthermore $l i m_{w \to \infty} c_{w}^{2^{- w}} \approx 0.71$ . In our construction we can have $p_{i} > h (p_{1} . . . p_{i - 1})$ for all i = 1,...,w and any function h: ℝ₊ → ℝ₊.

Lower bound for class numbers of certain real quadratic fields

Mohit Mishra (2023)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Similarity:

Let $d$ be a square-free positive integer and $h (d)$ be the class number of the real quadratic field $ℚ (\sqrt{d}) .$ We give an explicit lower bound for $h (n^{2} + r)$ , where $r = 1, 4$ . Ankeny and Chowla proved that if $g > 1$ is a natural number and $d = n^{2 g} + 1$ is a square-free integer, then $g ∣ h (d)$ whenever $n > 4$ . Applying our lower bounds, we show that there does not exist any natural number $n > 1$ such that $h (n^{2 g} + 1) = g$ . We also obtain a similar result for the family $ℚ (\sqrt{n^{2 g} + 4})$ . As another application, we deduce some criteria for a class group of prime power order to be...
