Zeros [real,imaginary] JSON

Numerical polynomial roots, degrees ≤6; flag near pole-zero pairs without canceling them or claiming internal stability.

Poles [real,imaginary] JSON

Numerical polynomial roots, degrees ≤6; flag near pole-zero pairs without canceling them or claiming internal stability.

Near-cancellation [zero position,pole position,distance] JSON

Numerical polynomial roots, degrees ≤6; flag near pole-zero pairs without canceling them or claiming internal stability.

Assumptions & limits

Assumptions & limits

  • User-supplied measurements and assumptions; Numerical polynomial roots, degrees ≤6; flag near pole-zero pairs without canceling them or claiming internal stability. Supported limits: Finite numeric values bounded to 1e9 magnitude; lists and tables contain 1–100 records unless a stricter bound is stated. Inputs use the units shown. Lists explicitly paired by a method must have matching lengths; independent polynomial coefficient vectors may differ. Respect stated physical, interpolation, policy and computational domain limits. Polynomial degrees are bounded to 6. Higher-degree near-multiple roots with a small derivative relative to coefficient scale are rejected as ill-conditioned; nonconvergent root solves are rejected rather than presented as accurate.
