Special Case

This paper provides an asymptotic estimate for the expected number of real zeros of a random algebraic polynomial a0+a1x+a2x2+…+an−1xn−1. The coefficients aj(j=0,1,2,…,n−1) are assumed to be independent normal random variables with mean zero. For integers m and k=O(log⁡n)2 the variances of the coefficients are assumed to have nonidentical value var⁡(aj)=(k−1j−ik), where n=k⋅m and i=0,1,2,…,m−1. Previous results are mainly for identically distributed coefficients or when var⁡(aj)=(nj). We show that the latter is a special case of our general theorem.

There are many known asymptotic estimates for the expected number of real zeros of an algebraic polynomial a0+a1x+a2x2+⋯+an−1xn−1 with identically distributed random coefficients. Under different assumptions for the distribution of the coefficients {aj}j=0n−1 it is shown that the above expected number is asymptotic to O(logn). This order for the expected number of zeros remains valid for the case when the coefficients are grouped into two, each group with a different variance. However, it was recently shown that if the coefficients are non-identically distributed such that the variance of the jth term is (nj) the expected number of zeros of the polynomial increases to O(n). The present paper provides the value for this asymptotic formula for the polynomials with the latter variances when they are grouped into three with different patterns for their variances.
