Abstract

Let p(z)=a0+a1z+a2z2+a3z3++anznp(z)=a_0+a_1z+a_2z^2+a_3z^3+\cdots+a_nz^n be a polynomial of degree nn having no zeros in the unit disk. ~Then it is well known that for R1,R\geq 1, maxz=Rp(z)(Rn+12)maxz=1p(z).\displaystyle{\max_{|z|=R}|p(z)|}\leq \Big(\dfrac{R^n+1}{2}\Big)\displaystyle{\max_{|z|=1}|p(z)|}. In this paper, we consider polynomials with gaps, having all its zeros on the circle S(0,K):={z:z=K}, 0<K1,S(0, K):=\{z: |z|=K\}, ~0<K\le 1,~ and estimate the value of (maxz=Rp(z)maxz=1p(z))s\Big(\dfrac{{\max_{|z|=R}|p(z)|}}{{\max_{|z|=1}|p(z)|}}\Big)^s for any positive integer s.s.
