Analytic closure of sets of real hyperbolic polynomials with separated roots (Q888779)

Denote by \(\overline{\mathcal{HP}^{>b}}\) the closure in the topology of local uniform convergence on \(\mathbb{C}\) of the class of all real polynomials with only real zeros \(x_1\leq x_2 \leq \dots \leq x_n\) such that \(\mathrm{mesh}(P)=\min_{k=1, 2,\ldots, n-1} | x_{k+1}-x_{k} |\geq b;\) and by \(\overline{\mathcal{HP}_+^{>q}}\) the closure of the class of all real polynomials with only real positive zeros \(x_1\leq x_2 \leq \dots \leq x_n\) such that the logarithmic mesh \(\mathrm{lmesh}(P)=\min_{k=1, 2,\dots, n-1} \frac{x_{k+1}}{x_k}\) is greater than or equal to \(q\). In the paper the author obtains a complete descriptions of the classes \(\overline{\mathcal{HP}^{>b}}\) and \(\overline{\mathcal{HP}_+^{>q}}\): \[ f \in \overline{\mathcal{HP}_+^{>q}} \iff f(x)=cx^r\prod_{k=1}^{\infty} \left(1-\frac{x}{x_k}\right), \] where \(c\in \mathbb{R}\), \(r \in \mathbb{N}\cup\{0\}\), \(x_k>0\), \(\sum_{k=1}^{\infty} 1/x_k < \infty\), \(\inf_k x_{k+1}/x_k \geq q\); and \[ f \in \overline{\mathcal{HP}^{>b}} \iff f(x)=cx^{\theta} e^{\beta x}\prod_{k=1}^{\infty} \left(1+\frac{x}{x_k}\right)e^{-x/x_k}, \] where \(c, \beta, x_k \in \mathbb{R}\), \(x_k\neq 0\), \(\theta\) is \(0\) or \(1\), \(\sum_{k=1}^{\infty} 1/x_k^2 < \infty\), \(\inf_k | x_{k+1}-x_k| \geq b\). Several examples and applications are also presented.
