Volume of solution sets for polynomials in $\mathbb{C}[x]$
Denote $\pmb{a}=(a_1,\dots,a_d)\in\mathbb{R}^d$ and consider the set
$$\mathcal{E}_d=\{\pmb{a}\in\mathbb{R}^d: \text{each root $\xi$ of $x^d+a_dx^{d-1}+\cdots+a_2x+a_1=0$ lies in $\vert\xi\vert<1$}\...

An Optimization Problem with Complex Variables, regarding Eigenvalues of Circulant Matrices
Let $S$ be a finite subset of the complex unit circle and $1 \in S$. For each $n \in \mathbb N $, define $f_n\colon S^{n-1}\to\mathbb R$ by
$$f_n(x) := \sum_{w^{n}=1}|x_1w+ x_2w^2\cdots+x_{n-1}w^{n-1}...
