Dear Daniel, Thanks for the response. Reduce did help me a lot. >From application of the argument principle I know that there are no solutions in the complex domain for the restrictions of parameters I have in the problem. I just have one question. Can the following command be a verification that mine equation does not exhibit solutions in the complex domain under the restrictions of parameters? K[p_] := 1 - 4*(1 - v)*ii^2*p^2*(1 - Sqrt[e^2 - p^2]/Sqrt[a^2 - p^2]) a = 1/ii; eq = K[p] == 0; consts = {e -> 1/1000, v -> 3/10, ii -> 10^(-5)}; Reduce[{eq, 0 < e < 1/10, 0 < v < 1, 0 < ii < 1/100} /. consts, p, Reals] False Reduce[{eq, 0 < e < 1/10, 0 < v < 1, 0 < ii < 1/100} /. consts, p, Complexes] False BTW, why we must mention Real as the third argument? Reduce search by deafult in the Real domain as far as I know. Am I missing something? Regards Dimitris Î?/Î?
