We study the theoretical and practical aspects of computing braids described by approximate descriptions of paths in the plane. Exact algorithms rely on the lexicographic ordering of the points in the plane, which is unstable under…
An enumerative problem on a variety $V$ is usually solved by reduction to intersection theory in the cohomology of a compactification of $V$. However, if the problem is invariant under a "nice" group action on $V$ (so that $V$ is…
This work concerns the distance in 2-norm from a matrix polynomial to a nearest polynomial with a specified number of its eigenvalues at specified locations in the complex plane. Perturbations are allowed only on the constant coefficient…
We consider the problem of approximating all real roots of a square-free polynomial $f$. Given isolating intervals, our algorithm refines each of them to a width of $2^{-L}$ or less, that is, each of the roots is approximated to $L$ bits…
We present a combination of two algorithms that accurately calculate multiple roots of general polynomials. Algorithm I transforms the singular root-finding into a regular nonlinear least squares problem on a pejorative manifold, and…
For a function $f$, continuous on a compact convex set $K$ and analytic in its interior we construct a sequence of almost optimal polynomials that converge with a geometric rate at points of analyticity of $f$.
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…
We generalize a version of Lavrent\'ev's theorem which says that a function that is continuous on a compact set K with connected complement and without interior points can be uniformly approximated as closely as desired by a polynomial…
We adapt Victor Y. Pan's root-based algorithm for finding approximate GCD to the case where the polynomials are expressed in Bernstein bases. We use the numerically stable companion pencil of Gudbj\"orn F. J\'onsson to compute the roots,…
We study the regularity of the roots of complex univariate polynomials whose coefficients depend smoothly on parameters. We show that any continuous choice of the roots of a $C^{n-1,1}$-curve of monic polynomials of degree $n$ is locally…
In this paper, we analyze how global optima of an agent's preferences can be reconstructed from the solutions found for local problems. A sheaf-theoretic analysis provides an abstract characterization of the global solution, and polynomial…
We study the problem of approximating the largest root of a real-rooted polynomial of degree $n$ using its top $k$ coefficients and give nearly matching upper and lower bounds. We present algorithms with running time polynomial in $k$ that…
The Householder's method is a root-find algorithm which is a natural extension of the methods of Newton and Halley. The current paper mostly focuses on approximating the square root of a positive real number based on these methods. The…
The optimal one-sided parametric polynomial approximants of a circular arc are considered. More precisely, the approximant must be entirely in or out of the underlying circle of an arc. The natural restriction to an arc's approximants…
We extend the algorithms of Robinson, Smyth, and McKee--Smyth to enumerate all real-rooted integer polynomials of a fixed degree, where the first few (at least three) leading coefficients are specified. Additionally, we introduce new linear…

In this article we consider certain well-known polynomials associated with graphs including the independence polynomial and the chromatic polynomial. These polynomials count certain objects in graphs: independent sets in the case of the…
The purpose of this paper is to show how Gelfand's formula and balancing can be used to improve the upper and lower bounds of the spectrum of a companion matrix associated with a given real or complex polynomial. Examples and other related…
Let $X$ and $Y$ be Banach spaces, let $\mathcal{A}(X)$ stands for the algebra of approximable operators on $X$, and let $P\colon\mathcal{A}(X)\to Y$ be an orthogonally additive, continuous $n$-homogeneous polynomial. If $X^*$ has the…
The condition of plane polynomial curve to be a line in well-known Abhyankar-Moh Theorem is replaced by weaker ones. A criterion of embedded line is obtained from this strong theorem: Two polynomials can generate the entire polynomial ring…
