There is a formula for the simple closed curve $gamma(t)$ and complex polynomial $p(z)$. The winding number of $p(gamma)$ around (0,0) is the sum of roots counting multiplicity of $p(z)$ within the closed curve $gamma(t)$. This is just a direct result from the argument principle.



Now I want to ask what if the closed curve $gamma(t)$ is NOT simple anymore which means it may have self-intersections. What will the winding number $w(p(gamma),(0,0))$ be? I think it should be still related to the roots of $p(z)$

          The winding number of $p circ gamma $ with respect to $0$ is
          $$
          I(p circ gamma,0) = frac{1}{2pi i}int_{p circ gamma} frac{dw}{w}
          = frac{1}{2pi i}int_gamma frac{p'(z)}{p(z)} , dz
          $$

          and that can be computed with the Residue theorem. If $a_1, ldots, a_m$ are the distinct roots of $p$ with multiplicities $k_1, ldots ,k_m$, then
          $$
          frac{1}{2pi i}int_gamma frac{p'(z)}{p(z)} , dz
          = sum_{j=1}^m I(gamma, a_j) operatorname{Res}(frac{p'}{p}, a_j)
          , .
          $$

          It is relatively easy to compute that the residue of $p'/p$ at a $k$-fold zero of $p$ is $k$, so that
          $$
          I(p circ gamma,0)= sum_{j=1}^m I(gamma, a_j) k_j , .
          $$

          This is the general formula.



          For a simple positively oriented closed curve $gamma$ the winding numbers $I(gamma, a_j)$ are either zero or one, and the sum reduces to
          $$
          I(p circ gamma,0) = sum_{a_j text{ inside } gamma} k_j
          $$
