AB - A real polynomial P of degree n in one real variable is hyperbolic if its roots are all real. A real-valued function P is called a hyperbolic polynomial-like function (HPLF) of degree n if it has n real zeros and P(n) vanishes nowhere. Denote by xk(i) the roots of P(i), k = 1, ..., n-i, i = 0, ..., n-1. Then in the absence of any equality of the formxi(j) = xk(i) (1)one has∀i &lt; j xk(i) &lt; xk(j) &lt; xk+j-i(i) (2)(the Rolle theorem). For n ≥ 4 (resp. for n ≥ 5) not all arrangements without equalities (1) of n(n+1)/2 real numbers xk(i) and compatible with (2) are realizable by the roots of hyperbolic polynomials (resp. of HPLFs) of degree n and of their derivatives. For n = 5 and when x1(1) &lt; x2(1) &lt; x1(3) &lt; x2(3) &lt; x3(1) &lt; x4(1) we show that from the 40 arrangements without equalities (1) and compatible with (2) only 16 are realizable by HPLFs (from which 6 by perturbations of hyperbolic polynomials and none by hyperbolic polynomials).
