Let $X(t,\omega),$ $t \in \textit{R}$ be a symmetric stable process with index $\alpha \in (1,2]$ and $a_n$ be the Fourier-Jacobi coefficients of $f \in L^p,$ where $p \geq \alpha.$ For $\gamma, \delta> 0,$ $t \in [-1,1],$ define…
Let $S_n^{(2)}$ denote the iterated partial sums. That is, $S_n^{(2)}=S_1+S_2+ ... +S_n$, where $S_i=X_1+X_2+ ... s+X_i$. Assuming $X_1, X_2,....,X_n$ are integrable, zero-mean, i.i.d. random variables, we show that the persistence…
We consider the problem of uniform sampling of points on an algebraic variety. Specifically, we develop a randomized algorithm that, given a small set of multivariate polynomials over a sufficiently large finite field, produces a common…
Hayes equivalence is defined on monic polynomials over a finite field $\fq$ in terms of the prescribed leading coefficients and the residue classes modulo a given monic polynomial $Q$. We study the distribution of the number of zeros in a…

We show in this paper that the roots $x_1$ and $x_2$ of a scalar quadratic polynomial $ax^2+bx+c=0$ with real or complex coefficients $a$, $b$ $c$ can be computed in a element-wise mixed stable manner, measured in a relative sense. We also…

We investigate the hydrodynamic behavior of zeroes of trigonometric polynomials under repeated differentiation. We show that if the zeroes of a real-rooted, degree $d$ trigonometric polynomial are distributed according to some probability…
A prefixed polynomial equation is an equation of the form $P(t_1,\ldots,t_n) = 0$, where $P$ is a polynomial whose variables $t_1,\ldots,t_n$ range over the natural numbers, preceded by quantifiers over some, or all, of its variables. Here,…
In this paper, we derive explicit formulas for computing the roots of $ax^{2}+bx+c=0$ with $a$ being not invertible in split quaternion algebra. We also imitate the approach developed by Opfer, Janovska and Falcao etc. to verify our results…
This paper extends earlier work on the distribution in the complex plane of the roots of random polynomials. In this paper, the random polynomials are generalized to random finite sums of given "basis" functions. The basis functions are…
By Descartes' rule of signs, a real degree $d$ polynomial $P$ with all nonvanishing coefficients, with $c$ sign changes and $p$ sign preservations in the sequence of its coefficients ($c+p=d$) has $pos\leq c$ positive and $neg\leq p$…
Let p_N be a random degree N polynomial in one complex variable whose zeros are chosen independently from a fixed probability measure mu on the Riemann sphere S^2. This article proves that if we condition p_N to have a zero at some fixed…
We consider random polynomials whose coefficients are independent and uniform on {-1,1}. We prove that the probability that such a polynomial of degree n has a double root is o(n^{-2}) when n+1 is not divisible by 4 and asymptotic to…
We study the evolution of the roots of a polynomial of degree $N$, when the polynomial itself is evolving according to the heat flow. We propose a general conjecture for the large-$N$ limit of this evolution. Specifically, we propose (1)…

Consider the $[0,1]$-valued continuous random field solution $(u_t(x))_{t\geq 0, x\in \mathbb R}$ to the one-dimensional stochastic heat equation \[ \partial_t u_t = \frac{1}{2}\Delta u_t + b(u_t) + \sqrt{u_t(1-u_t)} \dot W, \] where…
A polynomial $P \in \mathbb{C}[z_1, \ldots, z_d]$ is strongly $\mathbb{D}^d$-stable if $P$ has no zeroes in the closed unit polydisc $\overline{\mathbb{D}}^d.$ For such a polynomial define its spectral density function as…
