We describe a subdivision algorithm for isolating the complex roots of a polynomial $F\in\mathbb{C}[x]$. Given an oracle that provides approximations of each of the coefficients of $F$ to any absolute error bound and given an arbitrary…

In this paper, we study polynomial norms, i.e. norms that are the $d^{\text{th}}$ root of a degree-$d$ homogeneous polynomial $f$. We first show that a necessary and sufficient condition for $f^{1/d}$ to be a norm is for $f$ to be strictly…

A challenging problem in computational mathematics is to compute roots of a high-degree univariate random polynomial. We combine an efficient multiprecision implementation for solving high-degree random polynomials with two certification…

We consider the sensitivity of real roots of polynomial systems with respect to perturbations of the coefficients. In particular - for a version of the condition number defined by Cucker, Krick, Malajovich, and Wschebor - we establish new…
