Abstract

The famous Koebe 14\frac14 theorem deals with univalent (i.e., injective) analytic functions ff on the unit disk D\mathbb D. It states that if ff is normalized so that f(0)=0f(0)=0 and f(0)=1f'(0)=1, then the image f(D)f(\mathbb D) contains the disk of radius 14\frac14 about the origin, the value 14\frac14 being best possible. Now suppose ff is only allowed to range over the univalent polynomials of some fixed degree. What is the optimal radius in the Koebe-type theorem that arises? And for which polynomials is it attained? A plausible conjecture is stated, and the case of small degrees is settled.
