Some Elementary Inequalities for Polynomials

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  03 November 2016

Extract

1. In this note we consider polynomials of a real variable x and of degree at most n,

The coefficients ak, may be complex. We are given a “mass distribution”, that is, a set of n + 1 real numbers xi, 0 ≤ in, such that
