Roots of Polynomials

Geometrical properties of polynomial roots

A univariate polynomial of degree n has n complex roots, which form a multiset in the complex plane. This article discusses the geometry of these points, such as upper and lower bounds on the absolute values of the roots and the expected number of real roots for a random polynomial. It also considers properties related to a single polynomial, such as the distance between two roots.
