Regularity of roots of polynomials

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: We show that smooth curves of monic complex polynomials Pa(Z)=Zn+sumj=1najZn−j, aj:IomathbbC with IsubsetmathbbR a compact interval, have absolutely continuous roots in a uniform way. More precisely, there exists a positive integer k and a rational number p>1, both depending only on the degree n, such that if ajinCk then any continuous choice of roots of Pa is absolutely continuous with derivatives in Lq for all 1leq<p, in a uniform way with respect to maxj|aj|Ck. The uniformity allows us to deduce also a multiparameter version of this result. The proof is based on formulas for the roots of the universal polynomial Pa in terms of its coefficients aj which we derive using resolution of singularities. For cubic polynomials we compute the formulas as well as bounds for k and p explicitly.
