   Abstract:
   In this paper, we analyze a nonlocal nonlinear partial differential equation formally derived by Steinerberger [Proc. Amer. Math. Soc., 147 (2019), pp. 4733-4744] to model dynamics of roots of polynomials under differentiation. This partial differential equation is critical and bears striking resemblance to hydrodynamic models used to describe collective behavior of agents (such as birds, fish, or robots) in mathematical biology. We consider a periodic setting and show global regularity and exponential in time convergence to uniform density for solutions corresponding to strictly positive smooth initial data.
