We give an explicit formula for the expectation of the number of real lines on a random invariant cubic surface, i.e. a surface $Z\subset \mathbb{R}P^3$ defined by a random gaussian polynomial whose probability distribution is invariant…

We study various statistical properties of real roots of three different classes of random polynomials which recently attracted a vivid interest in the context of probability theory and quantum chaos. We first focus on gap probabilities on…

We obtain the asymptotic variance, as the degree goes to infinity, of the normalized number of real roots of a square Kostlan-Shub-Smale random polynomial system of any size. Our main tools are the Kac-Rice formula for the second factorial…

The study of random polynomials has a long and rich history. This paper studies random algebraic polynomials $P_n(x) = a_0 + a_1 x + \ldots + a_{n-1} x^{n-1}$ where the coefficients $(a_k)$ are correlated random variables taken as the…

We study the roots of a random polynomial over the field of $p$-adic numbers. For a random monic polynomial with i.i.d. coefficients in $\mathbb{Z}_p$, we obtain an estimate for the expected number of roots of this polynomial. In…

We consider random trigonometric polynomials of the form \[ f_n(t):=\frac{1}{\sqrt{n}} \sum_{k=1}^{n}a_k \cos(k t)+b_k \sin(k t), \] where $(a_k)_{k\geq 1}$ and $(b_k)_{k\geq 1}$ are two independent stationary Gaussian processes with the…

We study the density of complex zeros of a system of real random SO($m+1$) polynomials in several variables. We show that the density of complex zeros of this random polynomial system with real coefficients rapidly approaches the density of…

The derivative of a polynomial with all zeros on the unit circle has the zeros of its derivative on or inside the unit circle. It has been observed that in many cases the zeros of the derivative have a bimodal distribution: there are two…

Given a prime $p$, let $P(t)$ be a non-constant monic polynomial in $t$ over the ring $\mathbb{Z}_{p}$ of $p$-adic integers. Let $X_{n}$ be an $n \times n$ random matrix over $\mathbb{Z}_{p}$ with independent entries that lie in any residue…

Let $\{f_j\}_{j=0}^n$ be a sequence of orthonormal polynomials where the orthogonality relation is satisfied on either the real line or on the unit circle. We study zero distribution of random linear combinations of the form…

Let f:=(f^1,\...,f^n) be a sparse random polynomial system. This means that each f^i has fixed support (list of possibly non-zero coefficients) and each coefficient has a Gaussian probability distribution of arbitrary variance. We express…

Our probabilistic analysis sheds light to the following questions: Why do random polynomials seem to have few, and well separated real roots, on the average? Why do exact algorithms for real root isolation may perform comparatively well or…

Let $ \{\varphi_i(z;\alpha)\}_{i=0}^\infty $, corresponding to $ \alpha\in(-1,1) $, be orthonormal Geronimus polynomials. We study asymptotic behavior of the expected number of real zeros, say $ \mathbb E_n(\alpha) $, of random polynomials…

The expected number of real projective roots of orthogonally invariant random homogeneous real polynomial systems is known to be equal to the square root of the B\'ezout number. A similar result is known for random multi-homogeneous…

We derive a useful result about the zeros of the $k$-polar polynomials on the unit circle; in particular we obtain a ring shaped region containing all the zeros of these polynomials. Some examples are presented.

Consider a monic polynomial of degree $n$ whose subleading coefficients are independent, identically distributed, nondegenerate random variables having zero mean, unit variance, and finite moments of all orders, and let $m \geq 0$ be a…

Our interest lies in describing the zero behaviour of Gauss hypergeometric polynomials $F(-n,b; c; z)$ where $b$ and $c$ are arbitrary parameters. In general, this problem has not been solved and even when $b$ and $c$ are both real, the…
