Polynomials, sign patterns and Descartes' rule of signs

Vladimir Petrov Kostov (2019)

Mathematica Bohemica

By Descartes’ rule of signs, a real degree d polynomial P with all nonvanishing coefficients with c sign changes and p sign preservations in the sequence of its coefficients ( c + p = d ) has pos c positive and ¬ p negative roots, where pos c ( mod 2 ) and ¬ p ( mod 2 ) . For 1 d 3 , for every possible choice of the sequence of signs of coefficients of P (called sign pattern) and for every pair ( pos , neg ) satisfying these conditions there exists a polynomial P with exactly pos positive and exactly ¬ negative roots (all of them simple). For d 4 this is not...

Properties of differences of meromorphic functions

Zong-Xuan Chen, Kwang Ho Shon (2011)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Let f be a transcendental meromorphic function. We propose a number of results concerning zeros and fixed points of the difference g ( z ) = f ( z + c ) - f ( z ) and the divided difference g ( z ) / f ( z ) .
