A theorem of Stieltjes proves that, given any sequence {pn}n=0 of orthogonal polynomials, there is at least one zero of pn between any two consecutive zeros of pk if k < n, a property called Stieltjes interlacing. We show that Stieltjes interlacing extends, under certain conditions, to the zeros of Jacobi polynomials from different sequences. In particular, we prove that the zeros of P n+1 inte...

Already for a long time it is known that quaternionic polynomials whose coefficients are located only at one side of the powers, may have two classes of zeros: isolated zeros and spherical zeros. Only recently a classification of the two types of zeros and a means to compute all zeros of such polynomials have been developed. In this investigation we consider quaternionic polynomials whose coeff...

Outlier detection is an important task for the statistical analysis of multivariate data, because often the outliers contain important information about the data structure. In compositional data, represented usually as proportions subject to a unit sum constraint, the ratios between the parts (variables) contain the essential information. This inherent property is, however, incompatible with th...

The minimum phase systems have ultimately been redefined for LTI discrete-time systems, at first SISO and later square MIMO ones, as those systems for which minimum variance control (MVC) is asymptotically stable, or in other words those systems who have ‘stable’ zeros, or at last as ‘stably invertible’ systems. The redefinition has soon been extended to nonsquare discrete-time LTI MIMO systems...

Abstract. Partition function or Fisher zeros play a fundamental role in the theory of phase transitions in models in classical statistical mechanics. In this paper the properties of partition function zeros in a square lattice self-avoiding walk model of polymer adsorption are presented. Some results constraining the distribution of zeros in the complex plane, based on mathematical results on t...

We present an algorithm to decompose a polynomial system into a finite set of normal ascending sets such that the set of the zeros of the polynomial system is the union of the sets of the regular zeros of the normal ascending sets. If the polynomial system is 0-dimensional, the set of the zeros of the polynomials is the union of the sets of the zeros of the normal ascending sets.

We develop some of the finer details of the location of the zeros of the weight two Eisenstein series. These zeros are the same as the zeros of the derivative of the Ramanujan delta function.

Characteristic polynomials of unitary matrices are extremely useful models for the Riemann zeta-function ζ(s). The distribution of their eigenvalues give insight into the distribution of zeros of the Riemann zeta-function and the values of these characteristic polynomials give a model for the value distribution of ζ(s). See the works [KS] and [CFKRS] for detailed descriptions of how these model...

We study the distribution of the nontrivial zeros of ideal class zeta functions associated to elements in the symmetric space of GLn over a number field. We establish asymptotics for the number of nontrivial zeros up to height T , and asymptotics for the distribution of the nontrivial zeros with respect to the critical line. We combine these results to study the mean value of the real parts of ...
