The theory of the dynamics of polymers in solution is developed coming from the hydrodynamic theory of the Brownian motion (BM) and the Rouse-Zimm (RZ) model. It is shown that the time correlation functions describing the polymer motion…

In this article we introduce the flow polynomial of a digraph and use it to study nowhere-zero flows from a commutative algebraic perspective. Using Hilbert's Nullstellensatz, we establish a relation between nowhere-zero flows and dual…

Following our recent letter, we study in detail an entry-wise diffusion of non-hermitian complex matrices. We obtain an exact partial differential equation (valid for any matrix size $N$ and arbitrary initial conditions) for evolution of…

This paper investigates asymptotic distribution of complex zeros of random polynomials $P_n(z):=\sum_{k=0}^{n}b(k)\xi_k z^k$, as $n\to\infty$, where $b$ is a regularly varying function at infinity with index $\alpha\in \mathbb{R}$ and…

Initiated by a result of Gorin and Marcus [Int. Math. Res. Not., (3):883--913, 2020] and an observation of Steinerberger [Proc. Amer. Math. Soc., 147(11):4733--4744, 2019], there has been a recent growing body of literature connecting…

We study the pairing between zeros and critical points of the polynomial $p_n(z) = \prod_{j=1}^n(z-X_j)$, whose roots $X_1, \ldots, X_n$ are complex-valued random variables. Under a regularity assumption, we show that if the roots are…

In this paper the spatial-temporal dynamics of the members of interacting populations is described by nonlinear partial differential equations. We consider the migration as a diffusion process influenced by the changing values of the birth…

We study continuity of the roots of nonmonic polynomials as a function of their coefficients using only the most elementary results from an introductory course in real analysis and the theory of single variable polynomials. Our approach…

Let $X_1,X_2,\ldots$ be independent and identically distributed random variables in $\mathbb{C}$ chosen from a probability measure $\mu$ and define the random polynomial $$ P_n(z)=(z-X_1)\ldots(z-X_n)\,. $$ We show that for any sequence $k…

In sustained growth with random dynamics stationary distributions can exist without detailed balance. This suggests thermodynamical behavior in fast growing complex systems. In order to model such phenomena we apply both a discrete and a…

The problem of finding roots or solutions of a nonlinear partial differential equation may be formulated as the problem of minimizing a sum of squared residuals. One then defines an evolution equation so that in the asymptotic limit a…

In this paper, we are interested in the more general concept of a polynomial (in)stability in mean in which the polynomial behaviour in the classical sense is replaced by a weaker requirement with respect to some probability measure. This…

Let $\mu$ be a probability measure on $\mathbb C$, and let $P_n$ be the random polynomial whose zeros are sampled independently from $\mu$. We study the asymptotic distribution of zeros of high-order derivatives of $P_n$. We show that, for…

It has long been posited that there is a connection between the dynamical equations describing evolutionary processes in biology and sequential Bayesian learning methods. This manuscript describes new research in which this precise…

Stanley's non-negativity theorem is at the heart of many of the results in Ehrhart theory. In this paper, we analyze the root behavior of general polynomials satisfying the conditions of Stanley's theorem and compare this to the known root…

In this paper, we introduce the concept of Developmental Partial Differential Equation (DPDE), which consists of a Partial Differential Equation (PDE) on a time-varying manifold with complete coupling between the PDE and the manifold's…

In this paper we investigate growth properties and the zero distribution of polynomials attached to arithmetic functions $g$ and $h$, where $g$ is normalized, of moderate growth, and $0<h(n) \leq h(n+1)$. We put $P_0^{g,h}(x)=1$ and…

We derive stationary measures for certain zero-temperature random polymer models, which we believe are new in the case of the zero-temperature limit of the beta random polymer (that has been called the river delta model). To do this, we…

The realistic modeling intended to quantify precisely some biological mechanisms is a task requiering a lot of a priori knowledge and generally leading to heavy mathematical models. On the other hand, the structure of the classical Machine…

We study asymptotic clustering of zeros of random polynomials, and show that the expected discrepancy of roots of a polynomial of degree $n$, with not necessarily independent coefficients, decays like $\sqrt{\log n/n}$. Our proofs rely on…
