Abstract: Sendov's conjecture asserts that if a complex polynomial $f$ of degree $ngeq2$ has all of its zeroes in closed unit disk $z:|z|leq1$, then for each such zero $lambd{a}_0$ there is a zero of the derivative $f^{\prime }$ in the closed unit disk $z:|z-lambd{a}_0|leq1$. This conjecture is known for $n<9$, but only partial results are available for higher $n$. We show that there exists a constant $n_0$ such that Sendov's conjecture holds for $ngeq{n}_0$. For $lambd{a}_0$ away from the origin and the unit circle we can appeal to the prior work of D'egot and Chalebgwa; for $lambd{a}_0$ near the unit circle we refine a previous argument of Miller (and also invoke results of Chijiwa when $lambd{a}_0$ is extremely close to the unit circle); and for $lambd{a}_0$ near the origin we introduce a new argument using compactness methods, balayage, and the argument principle.
