We derive an explicit condition for these roots to exist and, when they do, propose efficient ways to compute them. A similar auxiliary polynomial appears for the generalized Pellet theorem for matrix polynomials and it can be treated in the same way.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2012-10-08T05:28:51.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "12D10", "30C15" ], "keywords": [ "implementation", "similar auxiliary polynomial appears", "pellets theorem determines", "generalized pellet theorem", "matrix polynomials" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 11, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2012arXiv1210.2148M" } } }
