Bidkham mdbidkham@ Received 11 August 2009 Accepted 30 November 2009 Recommended by Narendra Kumar Govil Let p z be a polynomial of degree n and for any real or complex number a and let Dap z np z a - z p z denote the polar derivative of the polynomial p z with respect to a. In this paper we obtain new results concerning the maximum modulus of a polar derivative of a polynomial with restricted zeros. Our results generalize as well as improve upon some well-known polynomial inequalities. Copyright 2009 M. Bidkham et al.

Introduction and Statement of Results If p z is a polynomial of degree n then it is well known that maxip z n maxip z I _ I -1 11 I I I -1 11 z 1 z 1 The above inequality which is an immediate consequence of Bernstein s inequality applied to the derivative of a trigonometric polynomial is best possible with equality holding if and only if p z has all its zeros at the origin. If p z 0 in z 1 then max p z nmax p z 1 1 1 x 9 II Í r X z 1 2 z 1 Inequality was conjectured by Erdos and later proved by Lax 1 . If the polynomial p z of degree n has all its zeros in z 1 then it was proved by Turan 2 that 2 Journal of Inequalities and Applications max p z nmaxip z z 1 2 z 1 Inequality was generalized by Malik 3 who proved that if p z 0 in z k k 1 then n max p z max p z z 1 1 k z i For the class of polynomials having all its zeros in z k k 1
