Counting in Vieta graphs over
Bogdan Nica
We introduce and study a finite simple graph of algebraic origin: the Vieta graph on the solution set over to a symmetric, multivariate equation which is quadratic i…

Variance of point-counts for families of cubic curves over and Jacobsthal sums
Bogdan Nica
We give explicit computations for the variance of the number of points along one-parameter families of cubic curves. We highlight evaluations of variances that involve Jacobsthal s…
