Every real-rooted exponential polynomial is the restriction of a Lee-Yang polynomial (2303.03201v3)

Abstract: A Lee-Yang polynomial $ p(z_{1},\ldots,z_{n}) $ is a polynomial that has no zeros in the polydisc $ \mathbb{D}^{n} $ and its inverse $ (\mathbb{C}\setminus\overline{\mathbb{D}})^{n} $. We show that any real-rooted exponential polynomial of the form $f(x) = \sum_{j=0}^s c_j e^{\lambda_j x}$ can be written as the restriction of a Lee-Yang polynomial to a positive line in the torus. Together with previous work by Olevskii and Ulanovskii, this implies that the Kurasov-Sarnak construction of $ \mathbb{N} $-valued Fourier quasicrystals from stable polynomials comprises every possible $ \mathbb{N} $-valued Fourier quasicrystal.
