Let p(z) be a complex polynomial of degree n. Let C be a circle containing its n-1 zeros, having its center in the centroid of these zeros. We prove that C must contain at least int((n-1):2) zeros of its derivative.

Let $p(z)=a_0+a_1z+a_2z^2+a_3z^3+\cdots+a_nz^n$ be a polynomial of degree $n,$ where the coefficients $a_j,$ $j \in \{0,1,2,\cdots n\},$ may be complex. We impose some restriction on the coefficients of the real part of the given polynomial…

Closely following recent ideas of J. Borcea, we discuss various modifications and relaxations of Sendov's conjecture about the location of critical points of a polynomial with complex coefficients. The resulting open problems are formulated…

Let $p(z)$ be a complex polynomial of degree $n\ge 2$. For each $c\in\mathbb{C}$, let $K_c$ denote the convex hull of the zeros of $p(z)+c$, and let $K'$ denote the convex hull of the zeros of $p'(z)$. We prove that…

For any real polynomial $p(x)$ of even degree $n$, Shapiro [{\it Arnold Math. J.} 1(1) (2015), 91--99] conjectured that the sum of the number of real zeros of $(n-1)(p')^2 - np p''$ and the number of real zeros of $p$ is positive. We…

Let \( P(z) \) be a polynomial of degree \( n \) and $\alpha \in \mathbb{C}$. The polar derivative of \( P(z) \), denoted by \( D_\alpha P(z) \) and is defined by $D_\alpha P(z): = nP(z) + (\alpha -z)P'(z)$. The polar derivative \( D_\alpha…

In the geometry of polynomials, Schoenberg's conjecture, now a theorem, is a quadratic inequality between the zeros and critical points of a polynomial whose zeros have their centroid at the origin. We call its generalizations to other…

Over a field of characteristic zero, it is clear that a polynomial of the form (X-a)^d has a non-trivial common factor with each of its d-1 first derivatives. The converse has been conjectured by Casas-Alvero. Up to now there have only been…

We conjecture that the roots of a degree-n univariate complex polynomial are located in a union of n-1 annuli, each of which is centered at a root of the derivative and whose radii depend on higher derivatives. We prove the conjecture for…

We discuss a form of a well-known problem of Kakeya for complex polynomials. Let p(z) be a complex polynomial. This problem requires to find disc that contains n zeros of some derivative of p(z), provided that location of several zeros of…

In the moduli space of degree d polynomials, the special subvarieties are those cut out by critical orbit relations, and then the special points are the post-critically finite polynomials. It was conjectured that in the moduli space of…

The first part of this paper complements previous results on characterization of polynomials of least deviation from zero in Sobolev $p$-norm ($1<p<\infty$) for the case $p=1$. Some relevant examples are indicated. The second part deals…

In this paper we prove a recent conjecture formulated by Dmitrishin, Smorodin and Stokolos about that certain polynomials are univalent in the unit disk. As a consequence we get an upper estimate for the Koebe radius of univalent…

A $P$-polynomial corner, for $P \in \mathbb{Z}[z]$ a polynomial, is a triple of points $(x,y),\; (x+P(z),y),\; (x,y+P(z))$ for $x,y,z \in \mathbb{Z}$. In the case where $P$ has an integer root of multiplicity $1$, we show that if $A…
