Grace–Walsh–Szegő theorem

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

In mathematics, the Grace–Walsh–Szegő coincidence theorem[1][2] is a result named after John Hilton Grace, Joseph L. Walsh, and Gábor Szegő.

Statement[]

Suppose ƒ(z1, ..., zn) is a polynomial with complex coefficients, and that it is

  • symmetric, i.e. invariant under permutations of the variables, and
  • multi-affine, i.e. affine in each variable separately.

Let A be a circular region in the complex plane. If either A is convex or the degree of ƒ is n, then for every there exists such that
