Let F 2 C[x; y; z] be a constant-degree polynomial, and let A; B; C subset of C be finite sets of size n. We show that F vanishes on at most O(n(11/6))points of the Cartesian product A X B X C, unless F has a special group-related form. This improves a the ...

Isometries of quadratic spaces

Eva Bayer Fluckiger

Let k be a global field of characteristic not 2, and let f is an element of k[X] be an irreducible polynomial. We show that a non-degenerate quadratic space has an isometry with minimal polynomial f if and only if such an isometry exists over all the compl ...

Multivariate Markov-type and Nikolskii-type inequalities for polynomials associated with downward closed multi-index sets

Giovanni Migliorati

We present novel Markov-type and Nikolskii-type inequalities for multivariate polynomials associated with arbitrary downward closed multi-index sets in any dimension. Moreover, we show how the constant of these inequalities changes, when the polynomial is ...

Polynomiality of Hurwitz numbers, Bouchard-Marino conjecture, and a new proof of the ELSV formula

Nicolas Gerson Orantin

In this paper we give a new proof of the ELSV formula. First, we refine an argument of Okounkov and Pandharipande in order to prove (quasi-)polynomiality of Hurwitz numbers without using the ELSV formula (the only way to do that before used the ELSV formul ...

Discrete least squares polynomial approximation with random evaluations − application to parametric and stochastic elliptic PDEs

Fabio Nobile, Giovanni Migliorati

Motivated by the numerical treatment of parametric and stochastic PDEs, we analyze the least-squares method for polynomial approximation of multivariate functions based on random sampling according to a given probability measure. Recent work has shown that ...

On the discrete logarithm problem in finite fields of fixed characteristic

Robert Granger, Thorsten Kleinjung, Jens Markus Zumbrägel

For~

q

a prime power, the discrete logarithm problem (DLP) in~

\F_{q}

consists in finding, for any

g \in \mathbb{F}_{q}^{\times}

and

h \in \langle g \rangle

, an integer~

x

such that

g^x = h

. We present an algorithm for computing discrete logarithm ...
