  • "The Newton Polygon of a Planar Singular Curve and Its Subdivision"
    THE NEWTON POLYGON OF A PLANAR SINGULAR CURVE AND ITS SUBDIVISION NIKITA KALININ Abstract. Let a planar algebraic curve C be defined over a valuation field by an equation F (x,y)= 0. Valuations of the coefficients of F define a subdivision of the Newton polygon ∆ of the curve C. If a given point p is of multiplicity m on C, then the coefficients of F are subject to certain linear constraints. These constraints can be visualized in the above subdivision of ∆. Namely, we find a 3 2 distinguished collection of faces of the above subdivision, with total area at least 8 m . The union of these faces can be considered to be the “region of influence” of the singular point p in the subdivision of ∆. We also discuss three different definitions of a tropical point of multiplicity m. 0. Introduction Fix a non-empty finite subset Z2 and any valuation field K. We consider a curve C given by an equation F (x,y) = 0, where A⊂ i j ∗ (1) F (x,y)= aijx y , aij K . ∈ (i,jX)∈A Suppose that we know only the valuations of the coefficients of the polynomial F (x,y). Is it possible to extract any meaningful information from this knowledge? Unexpectedly, many geometric properties of C are visible from such a viewpoint. The Newton polygon ∆=∆( ) of the curve C is the convex hull of in R2. The extended Newton A A2 polyhedron of the curve C is the convex hull of the set ((i, j),s) R R (i, j) ,s val(aij) .

  • A Survey on Recent Advances and Future Challenges in the Computation of Asymptotes
    A Survey on Recent Advances and Future Challenges in the Computation of Asymptotes Angel Blasco and Sonia P´erez-D´ıaz Dpto. de F´ısica y Matem´aticas Universidad de Alcal´a E-28871 Madrid, Spain [email protected], [email protected] Abstract In this paper, we summarize two algorithms for computing all the gener- alized asymptotes of a plane algebraic curve implicitly or parametrically de- fined. The approach is based on the notion of perfect curve introduced from the concepts and results presented in [Blasco and P´erez-D´ıaz(2014)], [Blasco and P´erez-D´ıaz(2014-b)] and [Blasco and P´erez-D´ıaz(2015)]. From these results, we derive a new method that allow to easily compute horizontal and vertical asymptotes. Keywords: Implicit Algebraic Plane Curve; Parametric Plane Curve; Infinity Branches; Asymptotes; Perfect Curves; Approaching Curves. 1 Introduction In this paper, we deal with the problem of computing the asymptotes of the infinity branches of a plane algebraic curve. This question is very important in the study of real plane algebraic curves because asymptotes contain much of the information about the behavior of the curves in the large. For instance, determining the asymptotes of a curve is an important step in sketching its graph. Intuitively speaking, the asymptotes of some branch, B, of a real plane algebraic curve, C, reflect the status of B at the points with sufficiently large coordinates. In analytic geometry, an asymptote of a curve is a line such that the distance between the curve and the line approaches zero as they tend to infinity.

    A Package on Formal Power Series Wolfram Koepf Konrad-Zuse-Zentrum f¨ur Informationstechnik Heilbronner Str. 10 D-10711 Berlin [email protected] Mathematica Journal 4, to appear in May, 1994 Abstract: Formal Laurent-Puiseux series are important in many branches of mathemat- ics. This paper presents a Mathematica implementation of algorithms devel- oped by the author for converting between certain classes of functions and their equivalent representing series. The package PowerSeries handles func- tions of rational, exponential, and hypergeometric type, and enables the user to reproduce most of the results of Hansen’s extensive table of series. Subal- gorithms of independent significance generate differential equations satisfied by a given function and recurrence equations satisfied by a given sequence. Scope of the Algorithms A common problem in mathematics is to convert an expression involving el- ementary or special functions into its corresponding formal Laurent-Puiseux series of the form ∞ k/n f(x)= akx .

  • Kepler's Area Law in the Principia: Filling in Some Details in Newton's
    Historia Mathematica 30 (2003) 441–456 www.elsevier.com/locate/hm Kepler’s area law in the Principia: filling in some details in Newton’s proof of Proposition 1 Michael Nauenberg Department of Physics, University of California, Santa Cruz, CA 95064, USA Abstract During the past 30 years there has been controversy regarding the adequacy of Newton’s proof of Prop. 1 in Book 1 of the Principia. This proposition is of central importance because its proof of Kepler’s area law allowed Newton to introduce a geometric measure for time to solve problems in orbital dynamics in the Principia.Itis shown here that the critics of Prop. 1 have misunderstood Newton’s continuum limit argument by neglecting to consider the justification for this limit which he gave in Lemma 3. We clarify the proof of Prop. 1 by filling in some details left out by Newton which show that his proof of this proposition was adequate and well-grounded. 2003 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved. Résumé Au cours des 30 dernières années, il y a eu une controverse au sujet de la preuve de la Proposition 1 telle qu’elle est formulée par Newton dans le premier livre de ses Principia. Cette proposition est d’une importance majeure puisque la preuve qu’elle donne de la loi des aires de Kepler permit à Newton d’introduire une expression géometrique du temps, lui permettant ainsi de résoudre des problèmes dans la domaine de la dynamique orbitale. Nous démontrons ici que les critiques de la Proposition 1 ont mal compris l’argument de Newton relatif aux limites continues et qu’ils ont négligé de considérer la justification pour ces limites donnée par Newton dans son Lemme 3.

  • A Proof of Saari's Conjecture for the Three-Body
    A PROOF OF SAARI’S CONJECTURE FOR THE THREE-BODY PROBLEM IN Rd RICHARD MOECKEL Abstract. The well-known central configurations of the three-body problem give rise to periodic solutions where the bodies rotate rigidly around their center of mass. For these solutions, the moment of inertia of the bodies with respect to the center of mass is clearly constant. Saari conjectured that such rigid motions, called relative equilibrium solutions, are the only solutions with constant moment of inertia. This result will be proved here for the Newtonian three-body problem in Rd with three positive masses. The proof makes use of some computational algebra and geometry. When d ≤ 3, the rigid motions are the planar, periodic solutions arising from the five central configurations, but for d ≥ 4 there are other possibilities. 1. Introduction It is a well-known property of the Newtonian n-body problem that the center of mass of the bodies moves along a line with constant velocity. Making a change of coordinates, one may assume that the center of mass is actually constant and remains at the origin. Once this is done, the moment of inertia with respect to the origin provides a natural measure of the size of the configuration. The familiar rigidly rotating periodic solutions of Lagrange provide examples of solutions with constant moment of inertia. Saari conjectured that these are in fact the only such solutions [11]. The goal of this paper is to provide a proof for the three-body problem in Rd. This corresponding result for the planar problem was presented in [9].

  • Coefficients of Algebraic Functions: Formulae and Asymptotics
    COEFFICIENTS OF ALGEBRAIC FUNCTIONS: FORMULAE AND ASYMPTOTICS CYRIL BANDERIER AND MICHAEL DRMOTA Abstract. This paper studies the coefficients of algebraic functions. First, we recall the too-less-known fact that these coefficients fn always a closed form. Then, we study their asymptotics, known to be of the type n α fn ∼ CA n . When the function is a power series associated to a context-free grammar, we solve a folklore conjecture: the appearing critical exponents α belong to a subset of dyadic numbers, and we initiate the study the set of possible values for A. We extend what Philippe Flajolet called the Drmota{Lalley{Woods theorem (which is assuring α = −3=2 as soon as a "dependency graph" associated to the algebraic system defining the function is strongly connected): We fully characterize the possible singular behaviors in the non-strongly connected case. As a corollary, it shows that certain lattice paths and planar maps can not be generated by a context-free grammar (i.e., their generating function is not N-algebraic). We give examples of Gaussian limit laws (beyond the case of the Drmota{Lalley{Woods theorem), and examples of non Gaussian limit laws. We then extend our work to systems involving non-polynomial entire functions (non-strongly connected systems, fixed points of entire function with positive coefficients). We end by discussing few algorithmic aspects.

    FPS A Package for the Automatic Calculation of Formal Power Series Wolfram Koepf ZIB Berlin Email: [email protected] Present REDUCE form by Winfried Neun ZIB Berlin Email: [email protected] 1 Introduction This package can expand functions of certain type into their corresponding Laurent-Puiseux series as a sum of terms of the form X1 mk=n+s ak(x − x0) k=0 where m is the ‘symmetry number’, s is the ‘shift number’, n is the ‘Puiseux number’, and x0 is the ‘point of development’. The following types are supported: • functions of ‘rational type’, which are either rational or have a rational derivative of some order; • functions of ‘hypergeometric type’ where a(k + m)=a(k) is a ra- tional function for some integer m; • functions of ‘explike type’ which satisfy a linear homogeneous dif- ferential equation with constant coefficients. 1 2 REDUCE OPERATOR FPS 2 The FPS package is an implementation of the method presented in [2]. The implementations of this package for Maple (by D. Gruntz) and Mathe- matica (by W. Koepf) served as guidelines for this one.

  • Absolute Irreducibility of Polynomials Via Newton Polytopes
    ABSOLUTE IRREDUCIBILITY OF POLYNOMIALS VIA NEWTON POLYTOPES SHUHONG GAO DEPARTMENT OF MATHEMATICAL SCIENCES CLEMSON UNIVERSITY CLEMSON, SC 29634 USA [email protected] Abstract. A multivariable polynomial is associated with a polytope, called its Newton polytope. A polynomial is absolutely irreducible if its Newton polytope is indecomposable in the sense of Minkowski sum of polytopes. Two general constructions of indecomposable polytopes are given, and they give many simple irreducibility criteria including the well-known Eisenstein’s crite- rion. Polynomials from these criteria are over any field and have the property of remaining absolutely irreducible when their coefficients are modified arbi- trarily in the field, but keeping certain collection of them nonzero. 1. Introduction It is well-known that Eisenstein’s criterion gives a simple condition for a polyno- mial to be irreducible. Over the years this criterion has witnessed many variations and generalizations using Newton polygons, prime ideals and valuations; see for examples [3, 25, 28, 38]. We examine the Newton polygon method and general- ize it through Newton polytopes associated with multivariable polynomials. This leads us to a more general geometric criterion for absolute irreducibility of multi- variable polynomials. Since the Newton polygon of a polynomial is only a small fraction of its Newton polytope, our method is much more powerful. Absolute irre- ducibility of polynomials is crucial in many applications including but not limited to finite geometry [14], combinatorics [47], algebraic geometric codes [45], permuta- tion polynomials [23] and function field sieve [1]. We present many infinite families of absolutely irreducible polynomials over an arbitrary field. These polynomials remain absolutely irreducible even if their coefficients are modified arbitrarily but with certain collection of them nonzero.
