We investigate the number of real zeros of a univariate $k$-sparse polynomial $f$ over the reals, when the coefficients of $f$ come from independent standard normal distributions. Recently B\"urgisser, Erg\"ur and Tonelli-Cueto showed that…

Let F:=(f_1,...,f_n) be a random polynomial system with fixed n-tuple of supports. Our main result is an upper bound on the probability that the condition number of f in a region U is larger than 1/epsilon. The bound depends on an integral…

Principal component analysis (PCA) requires the computation of a low-rank approximation to a matrix containing the data being analyzed. In many applications of PCA, the best possible accuracy of any rank-deficient approximation is at most a…

Given a multivariate real (or complex) polynomial $p$ and a domain $\cal D$, we would like to decide whether an algorithm exists to evaluate $p(x)$ accurately for all $x \in {\cal D}$ using rounded real (or complex) arithmetic. Here…

We estimate the frequency of singular matrices and of matrices of a given rank whose entries are parametrised by arbitrary polynomials over the integers and modulo a prime $p$. In particular, in the integer case, we improve a recent bound…

For a given real polynomial $p$ we study the possible number of real roots of a differential polynomial $H_{\varkappa}[p](x) = \varkappa\left(p'(x)\right)^2-p(x)p''(x), \varkappa \in \mathbb{R}.$ In the special case when all real zeros of…

Many numerical problems with input $x$ and output $y$ can be formulated as a system of equations $F(x, y) = 0$ where the goal is to solve for $y$. The condition number measures the change of $y$ for small perturbations to $x$. From this…
