Sturmfels–Zworski conjecture on cyclic resultants of reciprocal polynomials
Sturmfels–Zworski conjecture on cyclic resultants of reciprocal polynomials
Let be the coefficient field, and let be a reciprocal monic polynomial of even degree , meaning that . Its cyclic resultants are the associated sequence of resultants. Sturmfels–Zworski conjecture. A reciprocal monic polynomial of even degree is determined by its first cyclic resultants. The conjecture concerns the amount of period or resultant data needed to reconstruct reciprocal polynomials. The paper notes progress for a special class arising from zeta functions of curves over finite fields, but the stated conjecture remains open in general.
