This post is a wiki. Anyone with karma >750 is welcome to improve it.

For example I have this polynomiyal:

p=(z-2*I)*(z+1*I)

I want sage show me someting like:

z^2-z*(1*I)-2

It doesn't mind the number of roots.

Is that what you want?

sage: var('z')
sage: p=(z-2*I)*(z+1*I)
sage: p.expand()
z^2 - I*z + 2
