Complex zeros of algebraic polynomial with non-zero mean random coefficients (Q1970315)

Let \(a_j\), \(b_j\), \(j=0,\dots,n-1\), be independent normally distributed random variables with a possibly non-zero mean and with a positive variance, and let \(P_n(z)=\sum_{j=0}^{n-1} \eta_jz^j\), \(z\in\Phi\), where \(\eta_j:=a_j+ib_j\) and \(\Phi\) is a compact manifold in the complex plane such that \(0\not\in\Phi\). Let \(\nu_n(\Phi)\) be the number of points \(z\in\Phi\), for which \(P_n(z)=0\). Under certain conditions, the authors obtain a formula for the density function \(h_n\) defined by \(E\nu_n(\Phi)=\smallint_{\Phi} h_n(z) dz\).
