We give a short and elementary proof of an inverse Bernstein-type inequality found by S. Khrushchev for the derivative of a polynomial having all its zeros on the unit circle. The inequality is used to show that equally-spaced points solve…
Some 76 years ago P. Tur\'an was the first to establish lower estimations of the ratio of the maximum norm of the derivatives of polynomials and the maximum norm of the polynomials themselves on the interval I:=[-1,1] and on the unit disk…
Let $n_1 < n_2 < \cdots < n_N$ be non-negative integers. In a private communication Brian Conrey asked how fast the number of real zeros of the trigonometric polynomials $T_N(\theta) = \sum_{j=1}^N {\cos (n_j\theta)}$ tends to $\infty$ as a…
The purpose of this note is to revive in $L^p$ spaces the original A. Markov ideas to study monotonicity of zeros of orthogonal polynomials. This allows us to prove and improve in a simple and unified way our previous result [Electron.…
If $P(z)=\sum_{j=0}^{n}a_jz^j$ is a polynomial of degree $n$ having no zero in $|z|<1,$ then it was recently proved that for every $p\in[0,+\infty]$ and $s=0,1,\ldots,n-1,$ \begin{align*} \left\|a_nz+\frac{a_s}{\binom{n}{s}}\right\|_{p}\leq…
Starting out from a question posed by T. Erd\'elyi and J. Szabados, we consider Schur-type inequalities for the classes of complex algebraic polynomials having no zeroes within the unit disk D. The class of polynomials with no zeroes in D -…
We show that with high probability the number of real zeroes of a random polynomial is bounded by the number of vertices on its Newton-Hadamard polygon times the cube of the logarithm of the polynomial degree. A similar estimate holds for…
We prove that there is an absolute constant $c > 0$ such that every polynomial $P$ of the form $$P(z) = \sum_{j=0}^{n}{a_jz^j}\,, \quad |a_0| = 1\,, \quad |a_j| \leq M\,, \quad a_j \in \Bbb{C}\,, \quad M \geq 1\,,$$ has at most…
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…
A note that points out the possibility to have p<1 in Sobolev type of inequalities by a use of the momomial structure of polynomials or power series. The proof is simple: Triangle angle inequality p*>1, monomial estimate from p* to exponent…
Markov's inequality for algebraic polynomials on $\left[-1,1\right]$ goes back to more than a century and it is widely used in approximation theory. Its asymptotically sharp form for unions of finitely many intervals has been found only in…
The literature on quaternionic polynomials and, in particular, on methods for determining and classifying their zero-sets, is fast developing and reveals a growing interest on this subject. In contrast, polynomials defined over the algebra…
Let $g$ and $h$ be real-valued arithmetic functions, positive and normalized. Specific choices within the following general scheme of recursively defined polynomials \begin{equation*} P_n^{g,h}(x):= \frac{x}{h(n)} \sum_{k=1}^{n} g(k) \,…
In this article, we consider the reciprocal antisymmetric polynomial \[P(z) = \sum_{j = 0}^{s}(-1)^j\gamma_j\left(z^j - z^{N + s + 1 - j}\right), \ \gamma_0 = 1.\] It is shown that if all the zeros of $P(z)$ are located on the unit circle,…
In 1935, P. Tur\'an proved that $$ S_{n,a}(x)= \sum_{j=1}^n{n+a-j\choose n-j} \sin(jx)>0 \quad{(n,a\in\mathbf{N}; 0<x<\pi).} $$ We present various related inequalities. Among others, we show that the refinements $$ S_{2n-1,a}(x)\geq \sin(x)…
We prove a Jensen-disc type theorem for polynomials $p\in\mathbb{R}[z]$ having all their zeros in a sector of the complex plane. This result is then used to prove the existence of a collection of linear operators…
We examine the maximal number of zeros a polynomial of degree at most n with constrained coefficients may have at 1. Our results are essentially sharp and extend earlier results of this variety. An interesting connection to certain…
Let $\chi(A)$ denote the characteristic polynomial of a matrix $A$ over a field; a standard result of linear algebra states that $\chi(A^{-1})$ is the reciprocal polynomial of $\chi(A)$. More formally, the condition $\chi^n(X)…
Originally, Tur\'{a}n's inequality states that if $(P_n(x))_{n\in\mathbb{N}_0}$ is the sequence of Legendre polynomials, then $\Delta_n(x):=P_n^2(x)-P_{n+1}(x)P_{n-1}(x)\geq0$ for all $n\in\mathbb{N}$ and $x\in[-1,1]$. Gasper specified the…
