Algorithms (or packages) to find recurrence relations for given sequence of q-polynomials?
Assume we have sequence of polynomials : $P_i(q)$ - each term is polynomial in $q$. (With integer coefficients, but hopefully it is not important).
We expect that there exists recurrence relation a ...

Primitive element theorem for algebraic functions
Given a function $f(x) : \mathbb{R}^n \to \mathbb{R}$, we call it algebraic if it satisfies a polynomial equality $g(y, x) = 0$.
This is analogous to an algebraic number being the root of a univariate ...

GCD in $\mathbb{F}_3[T]$ with powers of linear polynomials
This is a continuation of my previous question on $\gcd$s of polynomials of type $f^n - f$.
Let us call $n > 1$ simple at a prime $p$ when $p-1 \mid n-1$ but $p^k - 1 \not\mid n-1$ for all $k > ...

How can you find an integer coefficient polynomial knowing its values only at a few points (but requiring the coefficients be small)?
Example: How can you guess a polynomial $p$ if you know that $p(2) = 11$? It is simple: just write 11 in binary format: 1011 and it gives the coefficients: $p(x) = x^3+x+1$. Well, of course, this ...
