Let P_{k, n}^l be the space consisting of monic complex polynomials f(z) of degree k and such that the number of n-fold roots of f(z) is at most l. In this paper, we determine the integral homology groups of P_{k, n}^l.

We show that smooth curves of monic complex polynomials $P_a (Z)=Z^n+\sum_{j=1}^n a_j Z^{n-j}$, $a_j : I \to \mathbb C$ with $I \subset \mathbb R$ a compact interval, have absolutely continuous roots in a uniform way. More precisely, there…

We consider the family of polynomials $P(x,a)=x^n+a_1x^{n-1}+... +a_n$, $x,a_i\in {\bf R}$, and the stratification of ${\bf R}^n\cong \{(a_1,... ,a_n)|a_i\in {\bf R}\}$ defined by the multiplicity vector of the real roots of $P$. We prove…

We study rational homology groups of one-point compactifications of spaces of complex monic polynomials with multiple roots. These spaces are indexed by number partitions. A standard reformulation in terms of quotients of orbit arrangements…

We provide a unified, elementary, topological approach to the classical results stating the continuity of the complex roots of a polynomial with respect to its coefficients, and the continuity of the coefficients with respect to the roots.…

This note is motivated by an old result of Kronecker on monic polynomials with integer coefficients having all their roots in the unit disc. We call such polynomials Kronecker polynomials for short. Let $k(n)$ denote the number of Kronecker…

This work is divided into three parts. The first part concerns polynomials in one variable with all real roots. We consider linear transformations that preserve real rootedness, as well as matrices that preserve interlacing. The second part…

Let $G_n(z)=\xi_0+\xi_1z+...+\xi_n z^n$ be a random polynomial with i.i.d. coefficients (real or complex). We show that the arguments of the roots of $G_n(z)$ are uniformly distributed in $[0,2\pi]$ asymptotically as $n\to\infty$. We also…

We consider real monic {\em hyperbolic} polynomials in one real variable, i.e. polynomials having only real roots. Call {\em hyperbolicity domain} $\Pi$ of the family of polynomials $P(x,a)=x^n+a_1x^{n-1}+... +a_n$, $a_i,x\in {\bf R}$, the…

Let $f(Z)=Z^n-a_{1}Z^{n-1}+\cdots+(-1)^{n-1}a_{n-1}Z+(-1)^na_n$ be a monic polynomial with coefficients in a ring~$R$ with identity, not necessarily commutative. We study the ideal $I_f$ of $R[X_1,\dots,X_n]$ generated by…

In this paper, we study the root distribution of some univariate polynomials $W_n(z)$ satisfying a recurrence of order two with linear polynomial coefficients over positive numbers. We discover a sufficient and necessary condition for the…

For a given monic integral polynomial $f(x)$ of degree $n$, we define local roots $r_i$ of $f(x)$ for a completely decomposable prime $p$ by $r_i \in \mathbb{Z}$, $f(r_i) \equiv 0 \bmod p$ and $0 \le r_1 \le r_2 \le \dots \le r_n < p$. With…

A polynomial $p\in\mathbb{R}[z_1,\dots,z_n]$ is real stable if it has no roots in the upper-half complex plane. Gurvits's permanent inequality gives a lower bound on the coefficient of the $z_1z_2\dots z_n$ monomial of a real stable…

Some cubic polynomials over the integers have three distinct real roots with continued fractions that all have the same common tail. We characterize the polynomials for which this happens, and then investigate the situation for other…

We identify the scaling region of a width O(n^{-1}) in the vicinity of the accumulation points $t=\pm 1$ of the real roots of a random Kac-like polynomial of large degree n. We argue that the density of the real roots in this region tends…

The average density of zeros for monic generalized polynomials, $P_n(z)=\phi(z)+\sum_{k=1}^nc_kf_k(z)$, with real holomorphic $\phi ,f_k$ and real Gaussian coefficients is expressed in terms of correlation functions of the values of the…

This paper investigates the number of monic integer polynomials of degree $n$ whose roots are all real and positive. We establish an asymptotic formula for the case of fixed trace by estimating the number of integer sequences satisfying…

Let $f(x)=x^n+a_{n-1}x^{n-1}+\dots+a_0$ be an irreducible polynomial with integer coefficients. For a prime $p$ for which $f(x)$ is fully splitting modulo $ p$, we consider $n$ roots $r_i$ of $f(x)\equiv 0\bmod p$ with $0 \le r_1\le\dots\le…
