The zeros of generalized Krawtchouk polynomials are studied. Some interlacing theorems for the zeros are given. A new infinite family of integral zeros is given, and it is conjectured that these comprise most of the non-trivial zeros. The integral zeros for two families of q-Krawtchouk polynomials are classified.

i was using had a chatty, helpful compiler that told me where the bug was and what was wrong—sort of. the trouble was that even when i printed the code and stared at the recalcitrant line, the bug remained hidden. in the end, i finally saw my error: i’d spelled “goto” with two zeros instead of two os. the characters are next to each other on the keyboard, and when printed, they looked almost id...

‎In this paper‎, ‎we consider a new study about fractional $Delta$-difference equations‎. ‎We consider two special classes of Sturm-Liouville problems equipped with fractional $Delta$-difference operators‎. ‎In couple of steps‎, ‎the Lyapunov type inequalities for both classes will be obtained‎. ‎As application‎, ‎some qualitative behaviour of mentioned fractional problems such as stability‎, ‎...

We obtain exact analytical expressions for correlations between real zeros of the Kac random polynomial. We show that the zeros in the interval (−1, 1) are asymptotically independent of the zeros outside of this interval, and that the straightened zeros have the same limit translation invariant correlations. Then we calculate the correlations between the straightened zeros of the SO(2) random p...

For many L-functions of arithmetic interest, the values on or close to the edge of the region of absolute convergence are of great importance, as shown for instance by the proof of the Prime Number Theorem (equivalent to non-vanishing of ζ(s) for Re(s) = 1). Other examples are the Dirichlet L-functions (e.g., because of the Dirichlet class-number formula) and the symmetric square L-functions of...

Recently, the weight distributions of the duals of the cyclic codes with two zeros have been obtained for several cases in [14, 15, 16]. In this paper we provide a slightly different approach toward the general problem and use it to solve one more special case. We make extensive use of standard tools in number theory such as characters of finite fields, the Gauss sums and the Jacobi sums to tra...

The notions separability and normality are related to this characterisation. In the case of skew fields polynomials often have infinitely many zeros, so a different way of counting zeros as distinct is needed. The well-known theorem of Gordon and Motzkin [Z] states that a polynomial of degree n has zeros in at most n conjugacy classes. This suggests one should count zeros of a polynomial by the...

Abstract. The complex zeros of the Riemannn zeta-function are identical to the zeros of the Riemann xi-function, ξ(s). Thus, if the Riemann Hypothesis is true for the zetafunction, it is true for ξ(s). Since ξ(s) is entire, the zeros of ξ(s), its derivative, would then also satisfy a Riemann Hypothesis. We investigate the pair correlation function of the zeros of ξ(s) under the assumption that ...
