erdos_522

Specification

Let `f(z)=∑_{0≤k≤n} ϵ_k z^k` be a random polynomial, where `ϵ_k∈{−1,1}` independently uniformly at random for `0≤k≤n`. Is it true that the number of roots of `f(z)` in `{z∈C:|z|≤1}` is, almost surely, `(1/2+o(1))n`? Formalization note: here the goal seems to mean that ` ℙ(| #roots of f in unit disk - n/2 | ≥ o(1)) → 0` as `n → ∞` This is quite awkward to formalise!
