Abstract

Let ϕ(x)=αnxn\phi(x)=\sum \alpha_n x^n be a formal power series with real coefficients, and let DD denote differentiation. It is shown that "for every real polynomial ff there is a positive integer m0m_0 such that ϕ(D)mf\phi(D)^mf has only real zeros whenever mm0m\geq m_0" if and only if "α0=0\alpha_0=0 or 2α0α2α12<02\alpha_0\alpha_2 - \alpha_1^2 <0", and that if ϕ\phi does not represent a Laguerre-P\'olya function, then there is a Laguerre-P\'olya function ff of genus 00 such that for every positive integer mm, ϕ(D)mf\phi(D)^mf represents a real entire function having infnitely many nonreal zeros.
