#### Abstract

Let $$\xi _0,\xi _1,\ldots$$ be i.i.d. random variables with zero mean and unit variance. We study the following four families of random analytic functions: \begin{aligned} P_n(z) := {\left\{ \begin{array}{ll} \sum \nolimits _{k=0}^n \sqrt{\left( {\begin{array}{c}n\\ k\end{array}}\right) } \xi _k z^k &{}\text { (spherical polynomials)},\\ \sum \nolimits _{k=0}^\infty \sqrt{\frac{n^k}{k!}} \xi _k z^k &{}\text { (flat random analytic function)},\\ \sum \nolimits _{k=0}^\infty \sqrt{\left( {\begin{array}{c}n+k-1\\ k\end{array}}\right) } \xi _k z^k &{}\text { (hyperbolic random analytic functions)},\\ \sum \nolimits _{k=0}^n \sqrt{\frac{n^k}{k!}} \xi _k z^k &{}\text { (Weyl polynomials)}. \end{array}\right. } \end{aligned} We compute explicitly the limiting mean density of real zeroes of these random functions. More precisely, we provide a formula for $$\lim _{n\rightarrow \infty } n^{-1/2}\mathbb {E} N_n[a,b]$$ , where $$N_n[a,b]$$ is the number of zeroes of $$P_n$$ in the interval [a, b].
