Geometry of Polynomials by Morris Marden - 9780821815038

Geometry of PolynomialsAuthor(s): Morris Marden\nFormat: Paperback\nPublisher: American Mathematical Society, United States\nImprint: American Mathematical Society\nISBN-13: 9780821815038, 978-0821815038\nSynopsis\nDuring the years since the first edition of this well-known monograph appeared, the subject (the geometry of the zeros of a complex polynomial) has continued to display the same outstanding vitality as it did in the first 150 years of its history, beginning with the contributions of Cauchy and Gauss. Thus, the number of entries in the bibliography of this edition had to be increased from about 300 to about 600 and the book enlarged by one third. It now includes a more extensive treatment of Hurwitz polynomials and other topics. The new material on infrapolynomials, abstract polynomials, and matrix methods is of particular interest.
