We introduce a sequence $P_{2n}$ of monic reciprocal polynomials with integer coefficients having the central coefficients fixed. We prove that the ratio between number of nonunimodular roots of $P_{2n}$ and its degree $d$ has a limit when…
We study the characteristic polynomial $p_{n}(x)=\prod_{j=1}^{n}(|z_{j}|-x)$ where the $z_{j}$ are drawn from the Mittag-Leffler ensemble, i.e. a two-dimensional determinantal point process which generalizes the Ginibre point process. We…
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…
It has been shown by Ibragimov and Zaporozhets [In Prokhorov and Contemporary Probability Theory (2013) Springer] that the complex roots of a random polynomial $G_n(z)=\sum_{k=0}^n\xi_kz^k$ with i.i.d. coefficients $\xi_0,\ldots,\xi_n$…
We show in this paper that after proper scalings, the characteristic polynomial of a random unitary matrix converges almost surely to a random analytic function whose zeros, which are on the real line, form a determinantal point process…
There has been a large amount of interest, both in the past and particularly recently, into the power of different families of universal approximators, e.g. ReLU networks, polynomials, rational functions. However, current research has…
The determinantal complexity of a polynomial $P \in \mathbb{F}[x_1, \ldots, x_n]$ over a field $\mathbb{F}$ is the dimension of the smallest matrix $M$ whose entries are affine functions in $\mathbb{F}[x_1, \ldots, x_n]$ such that $P =…
In this work, we continue the line of research on the complexity of distributions (Viola, Journal of Computing 2012), and study samplers defined by low degree polynomials. An $n$-tuple $P = (P_1,\dots, P_n)$ of functions $P_i \colon…
Let $f_n(z) = \sum_{k = 0}^n \varepsilon_k z^k$ be a random polynomial where $\varepsilon_0,\ldots,\varepsilon_n$ are i.i.d. random variables with $\mathbb{E} \varepsilon_1 = 0$ and $\mathbb{E} \varepsilon_1^2 = 1$. Letting $r_1,…
The paper deals with a 3-parameter family of probability measures on the set of partitions, called the z-measures. The z-measures first emerged in connection with the problem of harmonic analysis on the infinite symmetric group. They are a…
For a polynomial $P_n$ of degree $n$, Bernstein's inequality states that $\|P_n'\| \le n \|P_n\|$ for all $L^p$ norms on the unit circle, $0<p\le\infty,$ with equality for $P_n(z)= c z^n.$ We study this inequality for random polynomials,…
We introduce the ratio of the number of roots, not equal to 1 in modulus, of a reciprocal polynomial $R_d(x)$ to its degree $d$. For some sequences of reciprocal polynomials we show that the ratio has a limit $L$ when $d$ tends to infinity.…
We develop an algorithm for sampling from the unitary invariant random matrix ensembles. The algorithm is based on the representation of their eigenvalues as a determinantal point process whose kernel is given in terms of orthogonal…
We give a new proof that the empirical measures of the roots of Eulerian polynomials converge to a certain log-Cauchy distribution. To do so, we show that each moment of the roots of a related family of polynomials not only converge, but in…
In signal processing the Rudin-Shapiro polynomials have good autocorrelation properties and their values on the unit circle are small. Binary sequences with low autocorrelation coefficients are of interest in radar, sonar, and communication…
Mahler equations relate evaluations of the same function $f$ at iterated $b$th powers of the variable. They arise in particular in the study of automatic sequences and in the complexity analysis of divide-and-conquer algorithms. Recently,…
We investigate Newton's method as a root finder for complex polynomials of arbitrary degree. While polynomial root finding continues to be one of the fundamental tasks of computing, with essential use in all areas of theoretical…
We prove that under certain explicit conditions, the Mahler measure of a three-variable polynomial can be expressed in terms of elliptic curve $L$-values and Bloch-Wigner dilogarithmmic values, conditionally on Beilinson's conjecture. In…
Concentration of measure is a phenomenon in which a random variable that depends in a smooth way on a large number of independent random variables is essentially constant. The random variable will "concentrate" around its median or…
We conjecture that the roots of a degree-n univariate complex polynomial are located in a union of n-1 annuli, each of which is centered at a root of the derivative and whose radii depend on higher derivatives. We prove the conjecture for…
