On the finite-increment theorem for complex polynomials

From MaRDI portal

The main results of the article under review are two reverse inequalities of the finite increment formula for polynomials with complex coefficients. Let \(P(z)\in \mathbb{C}[z] \) be a complex polynomial of degree at most \( n\) and let \(z_1, z_2 \in \mathbb{C}\). 1. There exists a point \(\zeta \in \mathbb{C}\) such that \(P(\zeta) = P(z_2)\) and \[ |P(z_1) - P(z_2)| \geq \frac{4^{\frac{1}{n}-1}}{n} |P'(z_1)||z_1-\zeta|. \] 2. Let \(\gamma\) be the connected component of the pre-image of the interval \([P(z_1), P(z_2)]\) under the mapping \(P\) containing the point \(z_1\). Then, for any point \(\zeta \in \gamma\), the following inequality holds: \[ |P(z_1) - P(z_2)| \geq \frac{1}{n^2}|P'(z_1)||z_1-\zeta |. \tag{1} \] The equality in (1) is attained for the Chebyshev polynomial \(T_n(z)\), the points \(z_1 = 1, \zeta= -1\), and for an arbitrary point \(z_2\) satisfying the condition \(T_n(z_2) = -1\).
