+We extend the paradigmatic model of "complex" landscapes to complex variables.
+We believe it is the first such study, a subject of interest with applications
+from deep networks to optimization. In particular, we introduce an apparently
+new matrix model that generalizes the well-known semicircle law for
+fluctuations around real saddles in disordered systems. Our work is in line
+with Bogomolny, Bohigas & Leboeuf (PRL 1992) concerning roots of one random
+polynomial of high degree, while ours many of low degree. Many applications of
+this problem will surely appear, as always occurs when extending a real problem
+into the complex plane.
