Questions in which polynomials (single or several variables) play a key role. It is typically important that this tag is combined with other tags; polynomials appear in very different contexts. Please, use at least one of the top-level tags, such as nt.number-theory, co.combinatorics, ac.commutative-algebra, in addition to it. Also, note the more specific tags for some special types of polynomials, e.g., orthogonal-polynomials, symmetric-polynomials.

Using higher-order Bring radicals to solve arbitrary polynomials

For a family of polynomials $p_t$ depending polynomially on a complex parameter, as in the polynomials satisfied by your $B_r(t)$, define its Galois group to be the group of permutations of the roots you … Then there are families of polynomials exhibiting an arbitrary finite group as its Galois group. …

If the series Σ pᵃ⁽ʷ⁾·xᴵʷᴵ is rational, is Σ a(w)·xᴵʷᴵ also rational (summation over words ...

If there are only finitely many values for the $a_i$, then I believe the answer to both questions is affirmative for somewhat silly reasons. If you have any rational power series $f(x)$ with only fi …
