ZEROS OF REAL POLYNOMIALS ON BANACH SPACES

From MaRDI portal





This expository paper deals with three types of problems related to the zeros of scalar valued polynomials defined on a Banach space. The first type describes recent work of \textit{J. Ferrera} [see, e.g., Trans. Am. Math. Soc. 350, 4757--4773 (1998; Zbl 0906.46034)] on various types of convergence of the zero sets of polynomials. For instance, if \(P, P_n ~ (n \in \mathbb{N})\) are non-trivial \(k\)-homogeneous polynomials on a complex Banach space \(X\) such that \(P_n \to P\) pointwise, then the zero sets \(Z(P_n)\) converge to \(Z(P)\) in the Kuratowski sense. That is, (1) if \(x \in Z(P)\) then there is a sequence \((x_n),\) each \(x_n \in Z(P_n),\) such that \(\| x_n - x\| \to 0,\) and (2) if for each \(j\) in a cofinal set \(J \subset \mathbb{N}\) there is \(x_{n_j} \in Z_{n_j}\) such that \((x_{n_j}) \to x\) in norm, then \(x \in Z(P).\) The second type of problem describes work of \textit{A. Plichko} and \textit{A. Zagorodnyuk} [J. Math. Anal. Appl. 220, 477--494 (1998; Zbl 0919.46036)], resp. \textit{C. Boyd}, \textit{R. Ryan}, \textit{I. Zalduendo} and the reviewer [Positivity 7, 285--295 (2003; Zbl 1044.46036)], and also \textit{R. Gonzalo} and \textit{A. Zagorodnyuk} with the reviewer [Linear Multilinear Algebra 48, 107--115 (2000; Zbl 0972.12002)], on the size of subspaces that are contained in \(Z(P)\), for complex, resp. real, polynomials. In the final section, the author describes his joint work with \textit{S. Lassalle} on the approximation by zeros of orthogonally additive polynomials on real \(\ell_p\) and \(L_p\) spaces [Zeros of orthogonally additive polynomials on \(\ell_p\) and \(L_p\) spaces, Positivity, to appear].
