We give an algorithm for computing all roots of polynomials over a univariate power series ring over an exact field $\mathbb{K}$. More precisely, given a precision $d$, and a polynomial $Q$ whose coefficients are power series in $x$, the…
A new version of the Graeffe algorithm for finding all the roots of univariate complex polynomials is proposed. It is obtained from the classical algorithm by a process analogous to renormalization of dynamical systems. This iteration is…
We construct a family of root-finding algorithms which exploit the branched covering structure of a polynomial of degree $d$ with a path-lifting algorithm for finding individual roots. In particular, the family includes an algorithm that…

Univariate polynomial root-finding is a classical subject, still important for modern computing. Frequently one seeks just the real roots of a polynomial with real coefficients. They can be approximated at a low computational cost if the…
A notion of gcd chain has been introduced by the author at ISSAC 2017 for two univariate monic polynomials with coefficients in a ring R = k[x_1, ..., x_n ]/(T) where T is a primary triangular set of dimension zero. A complete algorithm to…
We show that the GCD of two univariate polynomials can be computed by (piece-wise) algebraic circuits of constant depth and polynomial size over any sufficiently large field, regardless of the characteristic. This extends a recent result of…
Suppose f is a real univariate polynomial of degree D with exactly 4 monomial terms. We present an algorithm, with complexity polynomial in log D on average (relative to the stable log-uniform measure), for counting the number of real roots…
We present algorithmic, complexity and implementation results concerning real root isolation of integer univariate polynomials using the continued fraction expansion of real algebraic numbers. One motivation is to explain the method's good…

One of the prominent current challenges in complexity theory is the attempt to prove lower bounds for $TC^0$, the class of constant-depth, polynomial-size circuits with majority gates. Relying on the results of Williams (2013), an appealing…
We give an anecdotal discussion of the problem of searching for polynomials with all roots on the unit circle, whose coefficients are rational numbers subject to certain congruence conditions. We illustrate with an example from a…
In this paper we propose a novel efficient algorithm for calculating winding numbers, aiming at counting the number of roots of a given polynomial in a convex region on the complex plane. This algorithm can be used for counting and…
We report an ongoing work on clustering algorithms for complex roots of a univariate polynomial $p$ of degree $d$ with real or complex coefficients. As in their previous best subdivision algorithms our root-finders are robust even for…
We design polynomial size, constant depth (namely, $\mathsf{AC}^0$) arithmetic formulae for the greatest common divisor (GCD) of two polynomials, as well as the related problems of the discriminant, resultant, B\'ezout coefficients,…
We devise a simple but remarkably accurate iterative routine for calculating the roots of a polynomial of any degree. We demonstrate that our results have significant improvement in accuracy over those obtained by methods used in popular…
We present a general method for introducing finitely axiomatizable "minimal" two-sorted theories for various subclasses of P (problems solvable in polynomial time). The two sorts are natural numbers and finite sets of natural numbers. The…
Certifying the positivity of trigonometric polynomials is of first importance for design problems in discrete-time signal processing. It is well known from the Riesz-Fej\'ez spectral factorization theorem that any trigonometric univariate…
