This is a corrigendum to the authors paper [A reconstruction theorem for complex polynomials, Int. J. Math. 26(9) (2015) 1550073]. Here we present a completely rewritten and self-contained Sec. 4 of the aforementioned paper and provide the reader with the corrected proof of the main result that briefly states: "Given a generic polynomial P of degree at least 2 , there exist positive integers N , M such that Re (P k (z)) = Re (P k (w)) for all 0 ≤ k ≤ N implies P M (z) = P M (w) ".

In this paper, the discovery of the Jones polynomial will be discussed, emphasizing the way in which it illustrated the remarkable unity between distinct parts of mathematics, each with its own language, but initially without a dictionary. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Let K be a number field. The Pólya field concept is used to know when the module of integer-valued polynomials over the ring of integers K of K has a regular basis. In [C. W.-W. Tougma, Some questions on biquadratic Pólya fields, J. Number Theory  229 (2021) 386–398], the author used cohomological results from [C. B. Setzer, Units over totally real C 2 × C 2 fields, J. Number Theory  12 (1980) 160–175] to answer questions raised in [A. Leriche, Pólya fields, Pólya groups and Pólya extensions: a question of capitulation, J. Théor. Nr. Bordx. 23 (2011) 235–249; A. Leriche, Cubic, quartic and sextic Pólya fields, J. Number Theory  133 (2013) 59–71] on biquadratic Pólya fields. Here we first prove that number fields were omitted from the list of exceptional fields cited in [A. Leriche, Pólya fields, Pólya groups and Pólya extensions: a question of capitulation, J. Théor. Nr. Bordx. 23 (2011) 235–249; A. Leriche, Cubic, quartic and sextic Pólya fields, J. Number Theory  133 (2013) 59–71]. We therefore identify new biquadratic Pólya fields, where the prime number 2 is totally ramified. This result corrects and completes some others on the literature. On the other hand, we show that the main results of [C. W.-W. Tougma, Some questions on biquadratic Pólya fields, J. Number Theory  229 (2021) 386–398] and this paper can be proved with a single method using Kuroda/Kubota's unit formula without cohomological results of [C. B. Setzer, Units over totally real C 2 × C 2 fields, J. Number Theory  12 (1980) 160–175].

This paper defines the Euler–Poincaré characteristic of joint reductions of ideals which concerns the maximal terms in the Hilbert polynomial; characterizes the positivity of mixed multiplicities in terms of minimal joint reductions; proves the additivity and other elementary properties for mixed multiplicities. The results of the paper together with the results of [Thanh and Viet, Mixed multiplicities of maximal degrees, J. Korean Math. Soc.55(3) (2018) 605–622] seem to show a natural and nice picture of mixed multiplicities of maximal degrees. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Champanerkar and Kofman [Twisting quasi-alternating links, Proc. Amer. Math. Soc.137(7) (2009) 2451–2458] introduced an interesting way to construct new examples of quasi-alternating links from existing ones. Actually, they proved that replacing a quasi-alternating crossing c in a quasi-alternating link by a rational tangle of same type yields a new quasi-alternating link. This construction has been extended to alternating algebraic tangles and applied to characterize all quasi-alternating Montesinos links. In this paper, we extend this technique to any alternating tangle of same type as c. As an application, we give new examples of quasi-alternating knots of 13 and 14 crossings. Moreover, we prove that the Jones polynomial of a quasi-alternating link that is obtained in this way has no gap if the original link has no gap in its Jones polynomial. This supports a conjecture introduced in [N. Chbili and K. Qazaqzeh, On the Jones polynomial of quasi-alternating links, Topology Appl.264 (2019) 1–11], which states that the Jones polynomial of any prime quasi-alternating link except (2 , p) -torus links has no gap.

Let R be a prime ring of characteristic different from 2, Q be its maximal right ring of quotients, and C be its extended centroid. Suppose that f (x 1 , ... , x n) is a non-central multilinear polynomial over C, 0   ≠   p   ∈   R , and F, G are two b-generalized derivations of R. In this paper we describe all possible forms of F and G in the case p G (F (f (r)) f (r)) = 0 for all r = (r 1 , ... , r n) in Rn. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this paper, we introduce a new type of relation between knots called the descendant relation. One knot is a descendant of another knot if can be obtained from a minimal crossing diagram of by some number of crossing changes. We explore properties of the descendant relation and study how certain knots are related, paying particular attention to those knots, called fertile knots, that have a large number of descendants. Furthermore, we provide computational data related to various notions of knot fertility and propose several open questions for future exploration. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Ichihara and Matsudo introduced the notions of -colorable links and the minimal coloring number for -colorable links, which is one of invariants for links. They proved that the lower bound of minimal coloring number of a non-splittable -colorable link is 4. In this paper, we show the minimal coloring number of any non-splittable -colorable link is exactly 4. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
