On zeros of reciprocal polynomials of odd degree.
By Descartes’ rule of signs, a real degree polynomial with all nonvanishing coefficients with sign changes and sign preservations in the sequence of its coefficients () has positive and negative roots, where and . For , for every possible choice of the sequence of signs of coefficients of (called sign pattern) and for every pair satisfying these conditions there exists a polynomial with exactly positive and exactly negative roots (all of them simple). For this is not...
Let be a transcendental meromorphic function. We propose a number of results concerning zeros and fixed points of the difference and the divided difference .
* Dedicated to the memory of Prof. N. ObreshkoffA Schoenberg conjecture connecting quadratic mean radii of a polynomial and its derivative is verified for some kinds of polynomials, including fourth degree ones.
For certain ensembles of random polynomials we give the expected value of the zero distribution (in one variable) and the expected value of the distribution of common zeros of m polynomials (in m variables).
Pseudozeros are useful to describe how perturbations of polynomial coefficients affect its zeros. We compare two types of pseudozero sets: the complex and the real pseudozero sets. These sets differ with respect to the type of perturbations. The first set – complex perturbations of a complex polynomial – has been intensively studied while the second one – real perturbations of a real polynomial – seems to have received little attention. We present a computable formula for the real pseudozero...
