The Borichev--Tomilov theorem \cite{BT2010} provides a sharp characterization of polynomial decay for linear $C_0$-semigroups in terms of resolvent growth along the imaginary axis. In the nonlinear setting, the absence of a spectral theory…

Extremal problems for typically real polynomials go back to a paper by W. W. Rogosinski and G. Szeg\H{o}, where a number of problems were posed, which were partially solved by using orthogonal polynomials. Since then, not too many new…

Let ${\cal P}_n^c$ denote the set of all algebraic polynomials of degree at most $n$ with complex coefficients. Let $$D^+ := \{z \in \mathbb{C}: |z| \leq 1, \, \, \Im(z) \geq 0\}$$ be the closed upper half-disk of the complex plane. For…

This work provides explicit characterizations and formulae for the minimal polynomials of a wide variety of structured $4\times 4$ matrices. These include symmetric, Hamiltonian and orthogonal matrices. Applications such as the complete…

We present a hierarchy of tractable relaxations to obtain lower bounds on the minimum value of a polynomial over a constraint set defined by polynomial equations. In contrast to previous convex relaxation techniques for this problem, our…

Littlewood investigated polynomials with coefficients in $\{-1,1\}$ (Littlewood polynomials), to see how small their ratio of norms $||f||_4/||f||_2$ on the unit circle can become as $deg(f)\to\infty$. A small limit is equivalent to slow…

In the first part we study critical points of random polynomials. We choose two deterministic sequences of complex numbers,whose empirical measures converge to the same probability measure in complex plane. We make a sequence of polynomials…

In the last few years, the notion of optimal polynomial approximant has appeared in the mathematics literature in connection with Hilbert spaces of analytic functions of one or more variables. In the 70s, researchers in engineering and…

In this paper, we develop a theory of new classes of discrete convex functions, called L-extendable functions and alternating L-convex functions, defined on the product of trees. We establish basic properties for optimization: a…
