Let $f_{c,d}(x)=x^d+c\in \mathbb{C}[x]$. The $c_0$ values for which $f_{c_0,d}$ has a strictly pre-periodic finite critical orbit are called Misiurewicz points. Any Misiurewicz point lies in $\bar{\mathbb{Q}}$. Suppose that the Misiurewicz points $c_0,c_1\in \bar{\mathbb{Q}}$ are such that the polynomials $f_{c_0,d}$ and $f_{c_1,d}$ have the same orbit type. One classical question is whether $c_0$ and $c_1$ need to be Galois conjugates or not. Recently there has been a partial progress on this question by several authors. In this note, we prove some new results when $d$ is a prime. All the results known so far were in the cases of period size at most $3$. In particular, our work is the first to say something provable in the cases of period size greater than $3$.
This paper continues discussions in the author's previous paper about the Misiurewicz polynomials defined for a family of degree $d \ge 2$ rational maps with an automorphism group containing the cyclic group of order $d$. In particular, we extend the sufficient conditions that the Misiurewicz polynomials are irreducible over $\mathbb{Q}$. We also prove that the Misiurewicz polynomials always have an irreducible factor of large degree.
We study the dynamics of the unicritical polynomial family $f_{d,c}(z)=z^d+c\in \mathbb{C}[z]$. The $c$-values for which $f_{d,c}$ has a strictly preperiodic postcritical orbit are called Misiurewicz parameters, and they are the roots of Misiurewicz polynomials. The arithmetic properties of these special parameters have found applications in both arithmetic and complex dynamics. In this paper, we investigate some new such properties. In particular, when $d$ is a prime power and $c$ is a Misiurewicz parameter, we prove certain arithmetic relations between the points in the postcritical orbit of…
In this paper, we consider a one-parameter family of degree $d\ge 2$ rational maps with an automorphism group containing the cyclic group of order $d$. We construct a polynomial whose roots correspond to parameter values for which the corresponding map is post-critically finite with a certain dynamical portrait. Then we prove that the polynomial is irreducible in certain cases.
Fix an integer $d\geq 2$. The parameters $c_0\in \bar{\mathbb{Q}}$ for which the unicritical polynomial $f_{d,c}(z)=z^d+c\in \mathbb{C}[z]$ has finite postcritical orbit, also known as Misiurewicz parameters, play a significant role in complex dynamics. Recent work of Buff, Epstein, and Koch proved the first known cases of a long-standing dynamical conjecture of Milnor using their arithmetic properties, about which relatively little is otherwise known. Continuing our work in a companion paper, we address further arithmetic properties of Misiurewicz parameters, especially the nature of the alge…
In this paper, we consider linear differential equations satisfied by the generating function for Hermite polynomials and derive some new identities involving those polynomials.
Let $q=4$ and $k$ a positive integer. In this short note, we present a class of permutation polynomials over $\Bbb F_{q^{3k}}$. We also present a generalization.
In this paper, by the generalized Bell umbra and Rolle's theorem, we give some results on the real rootedness of polynomials. Some applications on partition polynomials and the sigma polynomials of graphs are given.
In this paper, we study the degenerate version of the new type Euler polynomials, namely degenerate cosine-Euler polynomials and sime-Euler polynomials and also corresponding ones for Bernoulli polynomials, namely degenerate cosine Bernoulli polynomials and degenerate sine-Bernoulli polynomials by considering the degenerate Euler polynomials of complex variable and the degenerate Bernoulli polynomials of complex variable.
In this paper, we consider the Carlitz's type q-analogue of Changhee numbers and polynomials and we give some explicit formulae for these numbers and polynomials.
In this note, we give a shorter proof of the result of Zheng, Yu, and Pei on the explicit formula of inverses of generalized cyclotomic permutation polynomials over finite fields. Moreover, we characterize all these cyclotomic permutation polynomials that are involutions. Our results provide a fast algorithm (only modular operations are involved) to generate many classes of generalized cyclotomic permutation polynomials, their inverses, and involutions.
In this paper, we consider the degenerate Stirling polynomials of the second kind which are derived from the generating function. In addition, we give some new identities for these polynomials.
In this paper, we consider the degenerate multi-poly-Bernoulli numbers and polynomials which are defined by means of the multiple polylogarithms and degenerate versions of the multi-poly-Bernoulli numbers and polynomials. We investigate some properties for those numbers and polynomials. In addition, we give some identities and relations for the degenerate multi-poly-Bernoulli numbers and polynomials.
In this paper, we introduce the degenerate multiple polyexponential functions which are multiple versions of the degenerate modified polyexponential functions. Then we consider the degenerate multi-poly-Genocchi polynomials which are defined by using those functions and investigate explicit expressions and some properties for those polynomials.
In recent years, many authors have studied Changhee and Dae- hee polynomials in connection with many special numbers and polynomials. In this paper, we investigate type 2 Changhee and Daehee numbers and polynomials and give some identities for these numbers and polynomials in relation to type 2 Euler and Bernoulli numbers and polynomials. In addition, we express the central factorial numbers of the second kind in terms of type 2 Bernoulli, type 2 Changhee and type 2 Daehee numbers of negative integral orders.
Recently, introduced are the generalized Euler-Genocchi and generalized degenerate Euler-Genocchi polynomials. The aim of this note is to study the multi-Euler-Genocchi and degenerate multi-Euler-Genocchi polynomials which are defined by means of the multiple logarithm and generalize respectively the generalized Euler-Genocchi and generalized degenerate Euler-Genocchi polynomials. Especially, we express the former by the generalized Euler-Genocchi polynomials, the multi-Stirling numbers of the first kind and Stirling numbers of the second kind, and the latter by the generalized degenerate Eule…
The invariant theory of finite groups can connect the coding theory to the number theory. In this paper, under this conformity, we obtain the minimal generators of the rings of E-polynomials constructed from the groups related to $\mathbb{Z}_4$-codes. In addition, we determine the generators of the invariant rings appearing by E-Polynomials and complete weight enumerators of Type II $\mathbb{Z}_4$-codes.
In this paper, we study the degenerate derangement polynomials and numbers, investigate some properties of those polynomials and numbers and explore their connections with the degenerate gamma distributions. In more detail, we derive their explicit expressions, recurrence relations and some identities involving the degenerate derangement polynomials and numbers and other special polynomials and numbers, which include the fully degenerate Bell polynomials, the degenerate Fubini polynomials and the degenerate Stirling numbers of both kinds. We also show that those polynomials and numbers are con…
In this note, we prove an irreducibility criterion for the polynomial of the form $f(x) = a_{n}x^{n} + a_{n-1}x^{n-1} + \cdots + a_{m}x^{m} + p^{u} \in \mathbb{Z}[x]$, where $p$ is a prime number, $u \geqslant 1$, $\gcd(u, m) = 1$, $p \nmid a_{m}$ and $p^{u} > |a_{n}| + |a_{n-1}| + \cdots + |a_{m}|$. In particular, we show that the conjecture of Koley and Reddy is true.
The polynomial Pell equation is \[P^2 - D Q^2 = 1\] where $D$ is a given integer polynomial and the solutions $P, Q$ must be integer polynomials. A classical paper of Nathanson \cite{Nat} solved it when $D(x) = x^2 + d$. We show that the Rédei polynomials can be used in a very simple and direct way for providing these solutions. Moreover, this approach allows to find all the integer polynomial solutions when $D(x) = f^2(x) + d$, for any $f \in \mathbb Z[X]$ and $d \in \mathbb Z$, generalizing the result of Nathanson. We are also able to find solutions of some generalized polynomial Pell equati…
We give a new proof of the Brawley-Carlitz theorem on irreducibility of the composed products of irreducible polynomials. Our proof shows that associativity of the binary operation for the composed product is not necessary. We then investigate binary operations defined by polynomial functions, and give a sufficient condition in terms of degrees for the requirement in the Brawley-Carlitz theorem.
The aim of this paper is to introduce truncated degenerate Bell polynomials and numbers and to investigate some of their properties. In more detail, we obtain explicit expressions, identities involving other special polynomials, integral representations, Dobinski-like formula and expressions of the generating function in terms of differential operators and linear incomplete gamma function. In addition, we introduce truncated degenerate modified Bell polynomials and numbers and get similar results for those polynomials. As an application of our results, we show that the truncated degenerate Bel…
Linear Feedback Shift Registers (LFRS) are tools commonly used in cryptography in many different context, for example as pseudo-random numbers generators. In this paper we characterize LFRS with certain symmetry properties. Related to this question we also classify polynomials f of degree n satisfying the property that if a is a root of f then $f(a^n)=0$. The classification heavily depends on the choice of the fields of coefficients of the polynomial; we consider the cases $K=\mathbb{F}_p$ and $K=\mathbb{Q}$.
We study the uniform distribution of the polynomial sequence $λ(P)=(\lfloor P(k) \rfloor )_{k\geq 1}$ modulo integers, where $P(x)$ is a polynomial with real coefficients. In the nonlinear case, we show that $λ(P)$ is uniformly distributed in $\mathbb{Z}$ if and only if $P(x)$ has at least one irrational coefficient other than the constant term. In the case of even degree, we prove a stronger result: $λ(P)$ intersects every congruence class modulo every integer if and only if $P(x)$ has at least one irrational coefficient other than the constant term.
There are 3 examples in these notes. The first one is the standard example of the cubic resolvent of a quartic. The second example is exactly from Adelmann \cite{Adelmann} and gives a defining polynomial corresponding to the unique $S_4$-quotient of $\mathrm{GL}_2(\mathbb{Z}/4\mathbb{Z})$. The splitting field of the Adelmann polynomial over $\mathbb{Q}$ is a subfield of the 4-division field of an elliptic curve, that contains the 2-division field of the elliptic curve. The third example is new and needed in the study of the field theory of quaternion origami. Associated to an elliptic curve de…
In different areas of discrete mathematics, a certain type of polynomials, having coefficients in a field K of finite characteristic, has been considered. The form and the degree of these polynomials, here called projective, are simply linked to the characteristic p of K. Roots of these projective polynomials are particular algebraic elements over K, called hyperquadratic. For a general algebraic element of degree d over K, we discuss the possibility of being hyperquadratic. Using a method of differential algebra, we obtain, for particular fields K = Fp, projective polynomials only having poly…
