Abstract Denote by Znthe number of critical points of a random trigonometric polynomial of degree ≤ n We prove that as ν→∞ the expectation of Zν is asymptotic to 2ν √⅗ while its variance is asymptotic to δ∞νwhere δ∞≈ 0.35.

For random coefficientsajandbjwe consider a random trigonometric polynomial defined asTn(θ)=∑j=0n{ajcos⁡jθ+bjsin⁡jθ}. The expected number of real zeros ofTn(θ)in the interval(0,2π)can be easily obtained. In this note we show that this number is in factn/3. However the variance of the above number is not known. This note presents a method which leads to the asymptotic value for the covariance of the number of real zeros of the above polynomial in intervals(0,π)and(π,2π). It can be seen that our method in fact remains valid to obtain the result for any two disjoint intervals. The applicability of our method to the classical random trigonometric polynomial, defined asPn(θ)=∑j=0naj(ω)cos⁡jθ, is also discussed.Tn(θ)has the advantage onPn(θ)of being stationary, with respect toθ, for which, therefore, a more advanced method developed could be used to yield the results.

If aj(j=1,2,…,n) are independent, normally distributed random variables with mean 0 and variance 1, if p is one half of any odd positive integer except one, and if vnp is the mean number of zeros on (0,2π) of the trigonometric polynomial a1cosx+2pa2cos2x+…+npancosnx, then vnp=μp{(2n+1)+D1p+(2n+1)−1D2p+(2n+1)−2D3p}+O{(2n+1)−3}, in which μp={(2p+1)/(2p+3)}½, and D1p, D2p and D3p are explicitly stated constants.

The asymptotic estimate of the expected number of real zeros of the polynomial T(θ)=g1cosθ+g2cos2θ+…+gncosnθ where gj(j=1,2,…,n) is a sequence of independent normally distributed random variables is known. The present paper provides an upper estimate for the variance of such a number. To achieve this result we first present a general formula for the covariance of the number of real zeros of any normal process, ξ(t), occurring in any two disjoint intervals. A formula for the variance of the number of real zeros of ξ(t) follows from this result.

AbstractThis paper provides an asymptotic estimate for the expected number of K-level crossings of the random trigonometric polynomial g1 cos x + g2 cos 2x+ … + gn cos nx where gj (j = 1, 2, …, n) are dependent normally distributed random variables with mean zero and variance one. The two cases of ρjr, the correlation coeffiecient between the j-th and r-th coefficients, being either (i) constant, or (ii) ρ∣j−r∣ρ, j ≠ r, 0 < ρ < 1, are considered. It is shown that the previous result for ρjr = 0 still remains valid for both cases.

If a1,a2,…,an are independent, normally distributed random variables with mean 0 and variance 1, and if vn is the mean number of zeros on the interval (0,2π) of the trigonometric polynomial a1cosx+2½a2cos2x+…+n½ancosnx, then vn=2−½{(2n+1)+D1+(2n+1)−1D2+(2n+1)−2D3}+O{(2n+1)−3}, in which D1=−0.378124, D2=−12, D3=0.5523. After tabulation of 5D values of vn when n=1(1)40, we find that the approximate formula for vn, obtained from the above result when the error term is neglected, produces 5D values that are in error by at most 10−5 when n≥8, and by only about 0.1% when n=2.
