Given a polynomial constraint equation in $n$ variables, can one conclude that the sum of the variables is non-negative?

Currently I'm stuck as follows; at least a positive proof if $n=3$ would be a great nice-to-have! Consider real numbers $x_1,x_2,\dots,x_n$ satisfying $$\prod^n_{k=1}\left(1-x_k^2\right)\:=\:\...

Smaller root of a difference of products of polynomials with integer bounded coefficients

Is there a positive constant $K>0$ such that for every polynomials $f_1,\dots,f_4 \in\mathbb{Z}[X]$ with coefficients in {-1,0,1}, every positive root $x$ of the polynomial $$g=f_1f_2-f_3f_4$$ ...

Bounds on the smallest real positive root of a polynomial

I'm trying to find upper and lower bounds of the smallest positive root of a polynomial, stated in terms of its coefficients. As I appreciate it might be a very general problem, My specific interest ...

using polynomials as lower / upper bound?

I'm interested in the question of given a differentiable and bounded function $f(\vec{x})$ (over a single variable or multiple variables, over a bounded domain $D$), finding a pair of polynomials $p_1(...

bound for zeros of a polynomial with bounded integer coefficients

Let $f$ be a monic polynomial with bounded integer coefficients and such that all zeros are (in absolute value) greater than $1$. How close can the zeros of $f$ reach $1$ (in absolute value)? More ...
