Some Recent Results on the Geometry of Complex Polynomials: The Gauss--Lucas Theorem, Polynomial Lemniscates, Shape Analysis, and Conformal Equivalence

Abstract

In this article, we survey the the recent literature surrounding the geometry of complex polynomials. Specific areas surveyed are i) Generalizations of the Gauss--Lucas Theorem, ii) Geometry of Polynomials Level Sets, and iii) Shape Analysis and Conformal Equivalence.
