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…

We start with a random polynomial $P^{N}(z)$ of degree $N$ with independent coefficients. We then consider a new polynomial $P_{t}^{N}$ obtained by $\lceil Nt\rceil$ applications of a fractional differential operator of the form $z^{a}…

In this paper, we study the asymptotic macroscopic behavior of the root sets of iterated, randomized derivatives of polynomials. The randomization depend on a parameter of inverse temperature $\beta \in (0, \infty]$, the case $\beta =…

We study the asymptotic distribution of the number $Z_{N}$ of zeros of random trigonometric polynomials of degree $N$ as $N\to\infty$. It is known that as $N$ grows to infinity, the expected number of the zeros is asymptotic to…

We consider an analytic function $f$ whose zero set forms a unit intensity Poisson process on the real line. We show that repeated differentiation causes the zero set to converge in distribution to a random translate of the integers.

Zeros of many ensembles of polynomials with random coefficients are asymptotically equidistributed near the unit circumference. We give quantitative estimates for such equidistribution in terms of the expected discrepancy and expected…

In [Jalowy, Kabluchko, Marynych, arXiv:2504.11593v1, 2025], the authors discuss a user-friendly approach to determine the limiting empirical zero distribution of a sequence of real-rooted polynomials, as the degree goes to $\infty$. In this…
