Polynomials over structured grids
Bogdan Nica · Combinatorics Probability Computing · 2022
Abstract We study multivariate polynomials over ‘structured’ grids. Firstly, we propose an interpretation as to what it means for a finite subset of a field to be structured; we do so by means of a numerical parameter, the nullity. We then extend several results – notably, the Combinatorial Nullstellensatz and the Coefficient Theorem – to polynomials over structured grids. The main point is that the structure of a grid allows the degree constraints on polynomials to be relaxed.
