Abstract
In our quest for the design, the analysis and the implementation of a subdivision algorithm for finding the complex roots of univariate polynomials given by oracles for their evaluation, we present sub-algorithms allowing substantial acceleration of subdivision for complex roots clustering for such polynomials. We rely on approximation of the power sums of the roots in a fixed complex disc by Cauchy sums, each computed in a small number of evaluations of an input polynomial and its derivative, that is, in a polylogarithmic number in the degree. We describe root exclusion, root counting, root radius approximation and a procedure for contracting a disc towards the cluster of root it contains, called \(\varepsilon \)-compression. To demonstrate the efficiency of our algorithms, we combine them in a prototype root clustering algorithm. For computing clusters of roots of polynomials that can be evaluated fast, our implementation competes advantageously with user’s choice for root finding, MPsolve.

In [20, Sect. 2], called “The result”, we read: “The method is involved and many details still need to be worked out. In this report also many proofs will be omitted. A full account of the new results shall be given in a monograph” which has actually never appeared. [3] deduced a posteriori estimates, depending on root separation and Mahler’s measure, that is, on the roots themselves, not known a priori.
