Root separation for reducible monic polynomials of odd degree (1703.02120v1)

Published 6 Mar 2017 in math.NT

Abstract: We study root separation of reducible monic integer polynomials of odd degree. Let h(P) be the naive height, sep(P) the minimal distance between two distinct roots of an integer polynomial P(x) and sep(P)=h(P){-e(P)}. Let e_r*(d)=limsup_{deg(P)=d, h(P)-> +infty} e(P), where the limsup is taken over the reducible monic integer polynomials P(x) of degree d. We prove that e_r*(d) <= d-2. We also obtain a lower bound for e_r*(d) for d odd, which improves previously known lower bounds for e_r*(d) when d = 5, 7, 9.
