Given a subset $S=\{s_0, s_1\}$ of the complex plane with two points and an infinite subset ${\mathscr S}$ of $S\times {\mathbb N}$, where ${\mathbb N}=\{0,1,2,\dots\}$ is the set of nonnegative integers, we ask for a lower bound for the…
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 show that there are polynomials $p_N$ of arbitrarily large degree $N$, with coefficients equal to 0 or 1 (Newman polynomials), such that $$ \liminf_{N \to \infty} N \Linf{p_N^2} \bigl / p_N^2(1) < 1, $$ where $\Linf{q}$ denotes the…

With every real polynomial $f$, we associate a family $\{f_{\epsilon r}\}_{\epsilon, r}$ of real polynomials, in explicit form in terms of $f$ and the parameters $\epsilon>0,r\in N$, and such that $\Vert f-f_{\epsilon r}\Vert_1\to 0$ as…
