An n-variate Vandermonde polynomial is the determinant of the n x n matrix where the ith column is the vector (1, x_i, x_i^2, ...., x_i^{n-1})^T. Vandermonde polynomials play a crucial role in the theory of alternating polynomials and occur…
Finding roots of univariate polynomials is one of the fundamental tasks of numerics, and there is still a wide gap between root finders that are well understood in theory and those that perform well in practice. We investigate the root…
