Review text

Applied to a polynomial \(P(x)\) with real coefficients, Rolle's theorem gives that between any two real roots of \(P(x)\) there is a root of the derivative \(P'(x)\) and this induces further conditions on the higher derivatives \(P^{(s)}(x)\). Recently, it was shown in [\textit{V. P. Kostov} and \textit{B. Z. Shapiro}, Bull. Sci. Math. 126, 45-60 (2002; Zbl 0998.12001)] that all configurations between the roots of a hyperbolic polynomial (i.e. with real roots only) which agree with Rolle's theorem can be realized. In the paper under review the author considers the general case of arbitrary (also non-hyperbolic) polynomials. The main result is that all arrangements of the real roots of the polynomial and its \(s\)th derivative (consistent with Rolle's theorem and some other natural restrictions) can be realized by real polynomials.
