Abstract

We show that the variance of the number of simultaneous zeros of m i.i.d. Gaussian random polynomials of degree N in an open set U ⊆C^m with smooth boundary is asymptotic to N^m-1/2ν^mm Vol ∂U , where ν^mm is a universal constant depending only on the dimension m. We also give formulas for the variance of the volume of the set of simultaneous zeros in U of k < m random degree-N polynomials on C^m . Our results hold more generally for the simultaneous zeros of random holomorphic sections of the N-th power of any positive line bundle over any m-dimensional compact Kähler manifold.
