The algorithms of Pan (1995) and(2002) approximate the roots of a complex univariate polynomial in nearly optimal arithmetic and Boolean time but require precision of computing that exceeds the degree of the polynomial. This causes…

We analyze the polynomial solutions of the linear differential equation $p_2(x)y''+p_1(x)y'+p_0(x)y=0$ where $p_j(x)$ is a $j^{\rm th}$-degree polynomial. We discuss all the possible polynomial solutions and their dependence on the…

Previous analyses of Laguerre's method have provided results on the convergence and properties of this popular method when applied to the polynomials $p_n(z)=z^n-1$, $n\in\mathbb{N}$. While these analyses appear to provide a fairly complete…

The absolute separation of a polynomial is the minimum nonzero difference between the absolute values of its roots. In the case of polynomials with integer coefficients, it can be bounded from below in terms of the degree and the height…

We give the sufficient condition on coefficients $a_k$ of an algebraic polynomial $P(z)=\sum_{k=0}^{n}a_kz^k$, $a_n\not=0,$ for the pointwise Bernstein inequality $|P'(z)|\le n|P(z)|$ to be true for all $z\in\overline{\mathbb…

If the coefficients of polynomials are selected by some random process, the zeros of the resulting polynomials are in some sense random. In this paper the author rephrases the above in more precise language, and calculates the joint…

Suppose that f has continuous derivatives thru order r+1 for x>0, and let P_{c} denote the Taylor polynomial to f of order r at x=c,c>0. In a previous paper of the author, it was shown that if r is an odd whole number and the (r+1)st…

A general method of obtaining linear differential equations having polynomial solutions is proposed. The method is based on an equivalence of the spectral problem for an element of the universal enveloping algebra of some Lie algebra in the…

For a measure on a subset of the complex plane we consider $L^p$-optimal weighted polynomials, namely, monic polynomials of degree $n$ with a varying weight of the form $w^n = {\rm e}^{-n V}$ which minimize the $L^p$-norms, $1 \leq p \leq…

In this paper, we mainly give a general explicit form of Cassels' $p$-adic embedding theorem for number fields. We also give its refined form in the case of cyclotomic fields. As a byproduct, given an irreducible polynomial $f$ over $Z$, we…

A classical theorem of d'Alembert states that if a polynomial P(x) with real coefficients has a non-real root x=a+ib, then it also has a root x=a-ib. We give a short and elementary inductive proof that avoids any properties of the complex…

Let $S$ be a dense subring of the real numbers. In this paper we prove a polynomial version of Van der Waerden's theorem near zero. In fact, we prove that if $p_1,\ldots,p_m \in \mathbb{Z}[x]$ are polynomials such that $p_i(0) = 0$ and…
