Abstract

Let Pk{\mathcal P}_k denote the set of all algebraic polynomials of degree at most kk with real coefficients. Let Pn,k{\mathcal P}_{n,k} be the set of all algebraic polynomials of degree at most n+kn+k having exactly n+1n+1 zeros at 00. Let fA:=supxAf(x)\|f\|_A := \sup_{x \in A}{|f(x)|} for real-valued functions ff defined on a set ARA \subset {\Bbb R}. Let Vab(f):=abf(x)dxV_a^b(f) := \int_a^b{|f^{\prime}(x)| \, dx} denote the total variation of a continuously differentiable function ff on an interval [a,b][a,b]. We prove that there are absolute constants c1>0c_1 > 0 and c2>0c_2 > 0 such that c1nkminPPn,kP[0,1]V01(P)minPPn,kP[0,1]P(1)c2(nk+1)c_1 \frac nk\leq \min_{P \in {\mathcal P}_{n,k}}{\frac{\|P^{\prime}\|_{[0,1]}}{V_0^1(P)}} \leq \min_{P \in {\mathcal P}_{n,k}}{\frac{\|P^{\prime}\|_{[0,1]}}{|P(1)|}} \leq c_2 \left( \frac nk + 1 \right) for all integers n1n \geq 1 and k1k \geq 1. We also prove that there are absolute constants c1>0c_1 > 0 and c2>0c_2 > 0 such that c1(nk)1/2minPPn,kP(x)1x2[0,1]V01(P)minPPn,kP(x)1x2[0,1]P(1)c2(nk+1)1/2c_1 \left(\frac nk\right)^{1/2} \leq \min_{P \in {\mathcal P}_{n,k}}{\frac{\|P^{\prime}(x)\sqrt{1-x^2}\|_{[0,1]}}{V_0^1(P)}} \leq \min_{P \in {\mathcal P}_{n,k}}{\frac{\|P^{\prime}(x)\sqrt{1-x^2}\|_{[0,1]}}{|P(1)|}} \leq c_2 \left(\frac nk + 1\right)^{1/2} for all integers n1n \geq 1 and k1k \geq 1.
