We prove that zeros and critical points of a random polynomial $p_N$ of degree $N$ in one complex variable appear in pairs. More precisely, if $p_N$ is conditioned to have $p_N(\xi)=0$ for a fixed $\xi \in \C\backslash\set{0},$ we prove…

We characterize the limiting distributions of random variables of the form $P_n\left( (X_i)_{i \ge 1} \right)$, where: (i) $(P_n)_{n \ge 1}$ is a sequence of multivariate polynomials, each potentially involving countably many variables;…

We study the asymptotic distribution of zeros for the random polynomials $P_n(z) = \sum_{k=0}^n A_k B_k(z)$, where $\{A_k\}_{k=0}^{\infty}$ are non-trivial i.i.d. complex random variables. Polynomials $\{B_k\}_{k=0}^{\infty}$ are…

We consider the zeros of the sum of independent random polynomials as their degrees tend to infinity. Namely, let $p$ and $q$ be two independent random polynomials of degree $n$, whose roots are chosen independently from the probability…

Let $ p_n(x) $ be a random polynomial of degree $n$ and $\{Z^{(n)}_j\}_{j=1}^n$ and $\{X^{n, k}_j\}_{j=1}^{n-k}, k<n$, be the zeros of $p_n$ and $p_n^{(k)}$, the $k$th derivative of $p_n$, respectively. We show that if the linear statistics…

Let $f = \sum_{k=0}^n \varepsilon_k z^k$ be a random polynomial, where $\varepsilon_0,\ldots ,\varepsilon_n$ are iid standard Gaussian random variables, and let $\zeta_1,\ldots,\zeta_n$ denote the roots of $f$. We show that the point…

Let $X \in \{0,\ldots,n \}$ be a random variable, with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ and let \[f_X(z) = \sum_{k} \mathbb{P}(X = k) z^k, \] be its probability generating function. Pemantle conjectured that if $\sigma$ is large…
