Consider a random polynomial $P_n$ of degree $n$ whose roots are independent random variables sampled according to some probability distribution $\mu_0$ on the complex plane $\mathbb C$. It is natural to conjecture that, for a fixed $t\in…
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}…
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…

Let $X_1,X_2,...$ be independent identically distributed random variables with values in $\C$. Denote by $\mu$ the probability distribution of $X_1$. Consider a random polynomial $P_n(z)=(z-X_1)...(z-X_n)$. We prove a conjecture of Pemantle…
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…
Let $p_n$ be a polynomial of degree $n$ having all its roots on the real line distributed according to a smooth function $u(0,x)$. One could wonder how the distribution of roots behaves under iterated differentation of the function, i.e.…
We study the dynamics of polynomial-like mappings in several variables. A special case of our results is the following theorem. Let f be a proper holomorphic map from an open set U onto a Stein manifold V, $U\subset\subset V$. Assume f is…
Let $\mu$ be a probability measure in $\mathbb{C}$ with a continuous and compactly supported density function, let $z_1, \dots, z_n$ be independent random variables, $z_i \sim \mu$, and consider the random polynomial $$ p_n(z) =…
We consider unitary polynomials $P \in Z[X]$ whose roots $(x_i)$ belong to a given compact $K$ of $C$. To such a polynomial we associate the measure $\mu_P$ on $K$ which is the mean value of the Dirac measures $\delta_{x_i}$. What are the…
Let $(Z^{(n)}_k)_{1 \leq k \leq n}$ be a random set of points and let $\mu_n$ be its \emph{empirical measure}: $$\mu_n = \frac{1}{n} \sum_{k=1}^n \delta_{Z^{(n)}_k}. $$ Let $$P_n(z) := (z - Z^{(n)}_1)\cdots (z - Z^{(n)}_n)\quad…
We consider non-Hermitian random matrices $X \in \mathbb{C}^{n \times n}$ with general decaying correlations between their entries. For large $n$, the empirical spectral distribution is well approximated by a deterministic density,…

The purpose of this note is to introduce a new approach to the study of one of the most basic and seemingly intractable problems in partition theory, namely the conjecture that the partition function $p(n)$ is equidistributed modulo 2. Our…
Let $Z_1,\, Z_2,\dots$ be independent and identically distributed complex random variables with common distribution $\mu$ and set $$ P_n(z) := (z - Z_1)\cdots (z - Z_n)\,. $$ Recently, Angst, Malicet and Poly proved that the critical points…

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…
