We consider random trigonometric polynomials of the form \[ f_n(t):=\sum_{1\le k \le n} a_{k} \cos(kt) + b_{k} \sin(kt), \] whose entries $(a_{k})_{k\ge 1}$ and $(b_{k})_{k\ge 1}$ are given by two independent stationary Gaussian processes…

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…
In this paper, we study the number of real roots of random trigonometric polynomials with iid coefficients. When the coefficients have zero mean, unit variance and some finite high moments, we show that the variance of the number of real…
We give a precise measure of the rate at which repeated differentiation of a random trigonometric polynomial causes the roots of the function to approach equal spacing. This can be viewed as a toy model of crystallization in one dimension.…
We evaluate the number of monic polynomials (of arbitrary degree $N$) the zeros of which equal their coefficients when these are allowed to take arbitrary complex values. In the following, we call polynomials with this property {\em…
We consider polynomials on the unit circle defined by the recurrence relation \Phi_{k+1}(z) = z \Phi_{k} (z) - \bar{\alpha}_{k} \Phi_k^{*}(z) for k \geq 0 and \Phi_0=1. For each n we take \alpha_0, \alpha_1, ...,\alpha_{n-2} i.i.d. random…
We introduce the concept of piecewise interlacing zeros for studying the relation of root distribution of two polynomials. The concept is pregnant with an idea of confirming the real-rootedness of polynomials in a sequence. Roughly…
We establish the asymptotic zero distribution for polynomials generated by a four-term recurrence relation with varying recurrence coefficients having a particular limiting behavior. The proof is based on ratio asymptotics for these…
This paper gives the first algorithm for finding a set of natural $\epsilon$-clusters of complex zeros of a triangular system of polynomials within a given polybox in $\mathbb{C}^n$, for any given $\epsilon>0$. Our algorithm is based on a…
We establish new estimates for the number of $m$-smooth polynomials of degree $n$ over a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$, where the main term involves the number of $m$-smooth permutations on $n$ elements. Our estimates imply that the…
We establish a discrepancy theorem for signed measures, with a given positive part, which are supported on an arbitrary convex curve. As a main application, we obtain a result concerning the distribution of zeros of polynomials orthogonal…
We investigate the behavior of fractional derivatives of polynomials. In particular, we consider the locations and the asymptotic behaviour of their zeros and give bounds for their Mahler measure.
We study the zero location and the asymptotic behavior of iterated integrals of polynomials. Borwein-Chen-Dilcher's polynomials play an important role in this issue. For these polynomials we find their strong asymptotics and give the limit…
While the separation (the minimal nonzero distance) between roots of a polynomial is a classical topic, its absolute counterpart (the minimal nonzero distance between their absolute values) does not seem to have been studied much. We…
In the paper we study the distribution of the discriminant $D(P)$ of polynomials $P$ from the class $\mathcal{P}_{n}(Q)$ of all integer polynomials of degree $n$ and height at most $Q$. We evaluate the asymptotic number of polynomials $P\in…

The independence polynomial originates in statistical physics as the partition function of the hard-core model. The location of the complex zeros of the polynomial is related to phase transitions, and plays an important role in the design…
Consider a random system $\mathfrak{f}_1(x)=0,\ldots,\mathfrak{f}_n(x)=0$ of $n$ random real polynomials in $n$ variables, where each $\mathfrak{f}_k$ has a prescribed set of exponent vectors in a set $A_k\subseteq \mathbb{Z}^n$ of size…
We examine the maximal number of zeros a polynomial of degree at most n with constrained coefficients may have at 1. Our results are essentially sharp and extend earlier results of this variety. An interesting connection to certain…
