A quantitative result on polynomials with zeros in the unit disk (Q632995)

For \(0\leq\beta<1\) let \(S(n,\beta)\) be the set of complex polynomials of degree \(n\) with all the zeros in the closed unit disk and at least one zero at \(\beta\). Let \(A_n\) be the unique positive root of \(x^{2n-2}+C_nx-C_n=0\), with \[ C_n=\frac{2^{2n-2}(n-1)^2(2n-3)^{2n-3}(1+4\sin^2(\pi/n))}{(n-2)^{2n-4}\sin^2(\pi/n)}. \] Suppose that \(A_n<a<1\), \(P\in S(n,a)\) and \(\{z\in{\mathbb C}: |z-a|\leq 1\}\) contains no zero of \(P'(z)\). The author proves that every zero \(\zeta\) of \(P'(z)\) satisfies \(|\zeta|<\delta+1-a\), where \(\delta=(C_n(1-a))^\frac{1}{2n-2}\).
