Sep 19, 2021 at 0:39 comment added Iosif Pinelis @Dr.Pi : I think that your questions (in the current form) can be restated simply as follows. Question 1: What is $P(\inf f\ge0)$? Question 2: What are rough bounds on $P(\inf f>z)$ as $z\to\infty$?

Sep 18, 2021 at 18:58 comment added Dr. Pi Indeed, I totally forgot that the polynomials may take only negative values. I will edit the question.
Sep 18, 2021 at 16:17 comment added Yuval Peres My guess is that the OP did not intend to include the event $\{\sup f \le 0\}$. Let's wait for clarification.
Sep 17, 2021 at 18:18 comment added Iosif Pinelis @FedorPetrov : I think the question is to estimate, for large $z>0$, the probability of the union of the following two events: (i) $\{\sup f\le0\}$ (on which we have $m_f=\infty$) and (ii) $\{\inf f>z\}$.
Sep 17, 2021 at 17:56 comment added Fedor Petrov Why do you add $f(x) >0$ condition in the definition of $m_f$?
