On an inequality of Paul Turan concerning polynomials (Q726425): Difference between revisions

Given a univariate polynomial with zeros in a disk, the authors obtain a lower bound on the modulus of a certain derivative of this polynomial evaluated along a circle, as a function of the maximum and minimum modulus of the polynomial on a circle. This can be interpreted as a generalization of an inequality due to P. Turán in 1940 and its various refinements obtained since then. The proof relies on the classical Rouché theorem and Gauss-Lucas theorem.
