Abstract

A complex harmonic polynomial is the sum of a complex polynomial and a conjugated complex polynomial, of degrees n and m respectively. Li and Wei (2009) presented a formula for the expected number of zeros of a random harmonic polynomial in ℂ. In this paper we prove that if m is a fixed number, this expectation is asymptotically n as n→∞, and if m=n we find a lower and upper bound of order nlog n for this expectation for sufficiently large n.
