int Laguerre_Bound_Interval(int Degree,VECTOR &Coeff,double sens,int MaxIter,double *bound);with:
The lower bound of the root may be determined by:
int Laguerre_Bound_Inverse_Interval(int Degree,VECTOR &Coeff1,double amp_sens, int MaxIter,double *bound);We have also a procedure which determine upper and lower bound for the real roots:
int Laguerre_Bound_Interval(int Degree,VECTOR &Coeff,double sens,int MaxIter,INTERVAL &Bound);All the real roots lie within Bound. We may also use this procedure for interval polynomial:
int Laguerre_Bound_Interval(int Degree,INTERVAL_VECTOR &Coeff,double sens, int MaxIter,INTERVAL &Bound);This procedure fail and returns 0 if Degree=0, Coeff(1), if Coeff(Degree+1) and if the number of iteration exceed MaxIter. If Bound=[a,b], then the real roots of all the polynomial in the set are lower than b and for some polynomial in the set the roots may be lower than a. A similar procedure exists for upper and lower bound.
int Laguerre_Bound_Interval(int Degree,INTERVAL_VECTOR &Coeff,double sens, int MaxIter,INTERVAL &Lower,INTERVAL &Upper);In that case Upper=[a,b] will be such that value of all roots of any polynomial within the set is lower than b, while for some polynomial they will be lower than a. On the other hand Lower=[a,b] will be such that the value of all roots of any polynomial within the set is greater than a, while for some polynomial they will be greater than b.
