Critical points of random polynomials with independent identically distributed roots

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: Let X1,X2,... be independent identically distributed random variables with values in C. Denote by mu the probability distribution of X1. Consider a random polynomial Pn(z)=(z−X1)...(z−Xn). We prove a conjecture of Pemantle and Rivin [arXiv:1109.5975] that the empirical measure mun:=frac1n−1sumPn′(z)=0deltaz counting the complex zeros of the derivative Pn′ converges in probability to mu, as noinfty.
