We study the evolution of zeros of high polynomial powers under the heat flow. For any fixed polynomial $P(z)$, we prove that the empirical zero distribution of its heat-evolved $n$-th power converges to a distribution on the complex plane…

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}…

The question about the behavior of gaps between zeros of polynomials under differentiation is classical and goes back to Marcel Riesz. In this paper, we analyze a nonlocal nonlinear partial differential equation formally derived by Stefan…

For a given monic integral polynomial $f(x)$ of degree $n$, we define local roots $r_i$ of $f(x)$ for a completely decomposable prime $p$ by $r_i \in \mathbb{Z}$, $f(r_i) \equiv 0 \bmod p$ and $0 \le r_1 \le r_2 \le \dots \le r_n < p$. With…

Let $p_n(x)$ be a polynomial of degree $n$ having $n$ distinct, real roots distributed according to a nice probability distribution $u(0,x)dx$ on $\mathbb{R}$. One natural problem is to understand the density $u(t,x)$ of the roots of the…
