Let $K$ be an algebraically closed field with an absolute value. This note gives an elementary proof of the classical result that the roots of a polynomial with coefficients in $K$ are continuous functions of the coefficients of the…

We raise a question on the existence of continuous roots of families of monic polynomials (by the root of a family of polynomials we mean a function of the coefficients of polynomials of a given family that maps each tuple of coefficients…

We enhance the approximation capabilities of algebraic polynomials by composing them with homeomorphisms. This composition yields families of functions that remain dense in the space of continuous functions, while enabling more accurate…

We study monic univariate polynomials whose coefficients are analytic functions of a real variable and whose roots lie in a specified analytic curve. These include characteristic polynomials of unitary and hermitian matrices whose entries…

We give formulas for the number of polynomials over a finite field with given root multiplicities, in particular in cases when the formula is surprisingly simple (a power of q). Besides this concrete interpretation, we also prove an…

This work is divided into three parts. The first part concerns polynomials in one variable with all real roots. We consider linear transformations that preserve real rootedness, as well as matrices that preserve interlacing. The second part…

It is proved that whenever two aperiodic repetitive tilings with finite local complexity have homeomorphic tiling spaces, their associated complexity functions are asymptotically equivalent in a certain sense (which implies, if the…

This paper is devoted to several new results concerning (standard) octonion polynomials. The first is the determination of the roots of all right scalar multiples of octonion polynomials. The roots of left multiples are also discussed,…

We study the stratification of the space of monic polynomials with real coefficients according to the number and multiplicities of real zeros. In the first part, for each of these strata we provide a purely combinatorial chain complex…

We study continuity of the roots of nonmonic polynomials as a function of their coefficients using only the most elementary results from an introductory course in real analysis and the theory of single variable polynomials. Our approach…

In previous work, we proved that the continuous roots of a monic polynomial of degree $d$ whose coefficients depend in a $C^{d-1,1}$ way on real parameters belong to the Sobolev space $W^{1,q}$ for all $1\le q<d/(d-1)$. This is optimal. We…

Let C be some class of objects equipped with a set of simplifying moves. When we apply these to a given object M in C as long as possible, we get a root of M. Our main result is that under certain conditions the root of any object exists…

We provide a formal introduction into the classic theorems of general topology and its axiomatic foundations in set theory. In this second part we introduce the fundamental concepts of topological spaces, convergence, and continuity, as…

The roots of a complex polynomial depend continuously on the coefficients; that is, an infinitesimal perturbation of the coefficients results in an infinitesimal perturbation of the roots. A short, straightforward proof of this is possible…

We show that smooth curves of monic complex polynomials $P_a (Z)=Z^n+\sum_{j=1}^n a_j Z^{n-j}$, $a_j : I \to \mathbb C$ with $I \subset \mathbb R$ a compact interval, have absolutely continuous roots in a uniform way. More precisely, there…

Generalizing the classical matrix-tree theorem we provide a formula counting subgraphs of a given graph with a fixed 2-core. We use this generalization to obtain an analog of the matrix-tree theorem for the root system $D_n$ (the classical…

We revisit the classical problem of construction of a fundamental system of solutions to a linear ODE whose elements remain analytic and linearly independent for all values of the roots of the characteristic polynomial.

Univariate polynomial root-finding is a classical subject, still important for modern computing. Frequently one seeks just the real roots of a polynomial with real coefficients. They can be approximated at a low computational cost if the…

We discuss several conjectures about the real-rootedness of polynomials whose coefficients are determinants of coefficients of a real-rooted polynomial. We also consider some questions about matrices generalizing totally positive matrices,…

We introduce a very natural topology on the set of total orderings of monomials of any algebra having a countable basis over a field. This topological space and some notable subspaces are compact. This topological framework allows us to…
