On realizability of sign patterns by real polynomials

Vladimir Kostov (2018)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Similarity:

The classical Descartes’ rule of signs limits the number of positive roots of a real polynomial in one variable by the number of sign changes in the sequence of its coefficients. One can ask the question which pairs of nonnegative integers ( p , n ) , chosen in accordance with this rule and with some other natural conditions, can be the pairs of numbers of positive and negative roots of a real polynomial with prescribed signs of the coefficients. The paper solves this problem for degree 8 polynomials. ...

Root location for the characteristic polynomial of a Fibonacci type sequence

Zhibin Du, Carlos Martins da Fonseca (2023)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Similarity:

We analyse the roots of the polynomial x n - p x n - 1 - q x - 1 for p q 1 . This is the characteristic polynomial of the recurrence relation F k , p , q ( n ) = p F k , p , q ( n - 1 ) + q F k , p , q ( n - k + 1 ) + F k , p , q ( n - k ) for n k , which includes the relations of several particular sequences recently defined. In the end, a matricial representation for such a recurrence relation is provided.

Sum of squares and the Łojasiewicz exponent at infinity

Krzysztof Kurdyka, Beata Osińska-Ulrych, Grzegorz Skalski, Stanisław Spodzieja (2014)

Annales Polonici Mathematici

Similarity:

Let V ⊂ ℝⁿ, n ≥ 2, be an unbounded algebraic set defined by a system of polynomial equations h ( x ) = = h r ( x ) = 0 and let f: ℝⁿ→ ℝ be a polynomial. It is known that if f is positive on V then f | V extends to a positive polynomial on the ambient space ℝⁿ, provided V is a variety. We give a constructive proof of this fact for an arbitrary algebraic set V. Precisely, if f is positive on V then there exists a polynomial h ( x ) = i = 1 r h ² i ( x ) σ i ( x ) , where σ i are sums of squares of polynomials of degree at most p, such that f(x) + h(x) >...

Cycles on algebraic models of smooth manifolds

Wojciech Kucharz (2009)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

Every compact smooth manifold M is diffeomorphic to a nonsingular real algebraic set, called an algebraic model of M . We study modulo 2 homology classes represented by algebraic subsets of X , as X runs through the class of all algebraic models of M . Our main result concerns the case where M is a spin manifold.

On the distribution of the roots of polynomial z k - z k - 1 - - 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 - - z - 1 for k 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.

The R₂ measure for totally positive algebraic integers

V. Flammang (2016)

Colloquium Mathematicae

Similarity:

Let α be a totally positive algebraic integer of degree d, i.e., all of its conjugates α = α , . . . , α d are positive real numbers. We study the set ₂ of the quantities ( i = 1 d ( 1 + α ² i ) 1 / 2 ) 1 / d . We first show that √2 is the smallest point of ₂. Then, we prove that there exists a number l such that ₂ is dense in (l,∞). Finally, using the method of auxiliary functions, we find the six smallest points of ₂ in (√2,l). The polynomials involved in the auxiliary function are found by a recursive algorithm.

Polynomial relations amongst algebraic units of low measure

Acta Arithmetica

Similarity:

For an algebraic number field and a subset α 1 , . . . , α r , we establish a lower bound for the average of the logarithmic heights that depends on the ideal of polynomials in [ x 1 , . . . , x r ] vanishing at the point ( α 1 , . . . , α r ) .

Rational solutions of certain Diophantine equations involving norms

Maciej Ulas (2014)

Acta Arithmetica

Similarity:

We present some results concerning the unirationality of the algebraic variety f given by the equation N K / k ( X + α X + α ² X ) = f ( t ) , where k is a number field, K=k(α), α is a root of an irreducible polynomial h(x) = x³ + ax + b ∈ k[x] and f ∈ k[t]. We are mainly interested in the case of pure cubic extensions, i.e. a = 0 and b ∈ k∖k³. We prove that if deg f = 4 and f contains a k-rational point (x₀,y₀,z₀,t₀) with f(t₀)≠0, then f is k-unirational. A similar result is proved for a broad family of quintic polynomials...

An alternative polynomial Daugavet property

Elisa R. Santos (2014)

Studia Mathematica

Similarity:

We introduce a weaker version of the polynomial Daugavet property: a Banach space X has the alternative polynomial Daugavet property (APDP) if every weakly compact polynomial P: X → X satisfies m a x ω | | I d + ω P | | = 1 + | | P | | . We study the stability of the APDP by c₀-, - and ℓ₁-sums of Banach spaces. As a consequence, we obtain examples of Banach spaces with the APDP, namely L ( μ , X ) and C(K,X), where X has the APDP.

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 ) δ * ( Λ p - 1 ) H p , where d* (resp. δ*) denotes the adjoint operator to d (resp. δ) with respect to that inner product.

Symmetric identity for polynomial sequences satisfying A n + 1 ' ( x ) = ( n + 1 ) A n ( x )

Farid Bencherif, Rachid Boumahdi, Tarek Garici (2021)

Communications in Mathematics

Similarity:

Using umbral calculus, we establish a symmetric identity for any sequence of polynomials satisfying A n + 1 ' ( x ) = ( n + 1 ) A n ( x ) with A 0 ( x ) a constant polynomial. This identity allows us to obtain in a simple way some known relations involving Apostol-Bernoulli polynomials, ApostolEuler polynomials and generalized Bernoulli polynomials attached to a primitive Dirichlet character.

Diagonalization and rationalization of algebraic Laurent series

Boris Adamczewski, Jason P. Bell (2013)

Annales scientifiques de l'École Normale Supérieure

Similarity:

We prove a quantitative version of a result of Furstenberg [20] and Deligne [14] stating that the diagonal of a multivariate algebraic power series with coefficients in a field of positive characteristic is algebraic. As a consequence, we obtain that for every prime p the reduction modulo p of the diagonal of a multivariate algebraic power series f with integer coefficients is an algebraic power series of degree at most p A and height at most A p A , where A is an effective constant that only...

Some properties complementary to Brualdi-Li matrices

Chuanlong Wang, Xuerong Yong (2015)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Similarity:

In this paper we derive new properties complementary to an 2 n × 2 n Brualdi-Li tournament matrix B 2 n . We show that B 2 n has exactly one positive real eigenvalue and one negative real eigenvalue and, as a by-product, reprove that every Brualdi-Li matrix has distinct eigenvalues. We then bound the partial sums of the real parts and the imaginary parts of its eigenvalues. The inverse of B 2 n is also determined. Related results obtained in previous articles are proven to be corollaries.
