Multivariate polynomial representations of the infinite dihedral group
The presentation given in Wikipedia for the infinite dihedral group is
$$\langle r,s\mid s^2 =1, srs = r^{-1}\rangle.$$
Let $[R]$ denote the infinite set of reciprocal partition polynomials $R_n(u_1,...

Determining when quotient of a polynomial ring is a Gorenstein ring
I would like to be able to look at the ring $R=\mathbb{Z}[x_1,x_2,\ldots,x_n]/\mathcal{I},$ where $\mathcal{I}$ is generated by a finite number of monomials and say whether $R$ is a Gorenstein ring. ...

A theory of refined h- and f-polynomials for the permutahedra, associahedra, noncrossing partitions, and tropical Grassmannians (references)
Looking for references (insights) on a theory encompassing a notion of refined face polynomials and their associated refined h-polynomials that are generalizations of the relation between ordinary f-...

Outlier absences of monomials in a group of inversion partition polynomials
Revamped and updated on Sep 12, 2022:
Given the complex coefficients $a_n$ of some generic formal power, Taylor, Laurent or other series, say the ordinary generating functions (o.g.f.) $f(z) = z +a_1 ...

Are there three non-commutative polynomials in three variables with finite dimensional quotient?
$\newcommand\la{\langle}\newcommand\ra{\rangle}$Let $K$ be a field and $K\la x,y,z\ra$ the non-commutative polynomial ring in 3 variables.
Question 1: Are there three (fewer is probably not possible?!...

Finding non-commutative finite-dimensional "hypersurface" algebras
Fix a field $K$.
Call a non-commutative polynomial $f(x_i)$ whose monomial terms are all of degree at least 2 in the variables $x_i$ magic if the finite dimensional $K$-algebra $A_{f,n}:=K<x_i>/(...

A congruence involving roots of unity
Let $f(x) \in \mathbb{Z}[x]$ and suppose $f(\omega^j) \in \mathbb{Z}$ for all $j= 1, \dots, n$ where $\omega = e^{2 \pi i/n}$ is a primitive $n^{\text{th}}$ root of unity.

Dickson/determinant type polynomial (updated)
For $2\leq \ell \leq k$, consider the polynomial \begin{equation} P_{k,\ell} = \prod_{1\leq a_1+\ldots+a_k\leq \ell} (a_1x_1+\ldots + a_kx_k)\in \mathbb{F}_2[x_1,\ldots, x_k] \end{equation}

Can Schwartz-Zippel be formulated for commutative rings instead of fields?
The polynomials which occur in the Schwartz-Zippel lemma could be defined for any commutative ring, yet the lemma is restricted to fields. This makes it inapplicable for $(1+x^n)=1+x^n(\operatorname{...

Operator connected with Hermite polynomials
For $n \geq 1$, define the following operator $M_n$ on the ring of all polynomials with real coefficients.
$$M_n P(x) = nP(x)^2 - x \int_0^x (P'(t))^2 \, \mathrm{d}t$$
Monomials $x^k$ are mapped to $n ...

Showing that a family of polynomials has positive and real roots.
Hi everybody, for my research I am dealing with the following function:
$$\alpha_n(x):=\left.\frac{\partial^{2n+1}}{\partial z^{2n+1}}\frac{\sinh(z)}{\cosh(z)-1+x}\right|_{z=0},\quad n\in \mathbb{N},...
