2 PROCEEDINGS OF THE AMERICAN MATHEMATICAL SOCIETY S -9939(4)73-4 Article electronically pblished on May, 4 A CONTRACTION OF THE LUCAS POLYGON BRANKO ĆURGUS AND VANIA MASCIONI (Commnicated by N Tomczak-Jaegermann) Abstract The celebrated Gass-Lcas theorem states that all the roots of the derivative of a complex non-constant polynomial p lie in the convex hll of the roots of p, called the Lcas polygon of p We improve the Gass-Lcas theorem by proving that all the nontrivial roots of p lie in a smaller convex polygon which is obtained by a strict contraction of the Lcas polygon of p Based on a simple proof of the classical Gass-Lcas theorem from [5, Theorem 44] and an ineqality from [], we give an improvement of this theorem by showing that all the nontrivial roots of the derivative of a polynomial lie in a smaller convex polygon than predicted by the Gass-Lcas theorem In fact, or reslt is closely related to the following consideration of J L Walsh In [, 34] J L Walsh wrote: A deleted neighborhood of an arbitrary zero of p(z) can be assigned which is known to contain no critical point of p(z) Since no critical point other than a mltiple zero of p(z) can lie on the bondary of the Lcas polygon (assmed non-degenerate), it follows that no critical point lies in a certain strip inside the polygon and bonded by a side of the polygon and by a line parallel to that side We proceed to make this conclsion more precise nder certain conditions: [] However, Walsh s reslts as described in [] improve the Lcas polygon only along sides spanned by two roots of the same mltiplicity and not containing any other root in the interior Also, the formlas and calclations reqired in order to practically compte his improvement seem prohibitive A significant improvement of the Gass-Lcas theorem was achieved by D Dimitrov in [3] The regions that are garanteed to contain all the nontrivial critical points of a polynomial p in [3] are given as intersections of certain nions of circles The main difference between the reslts in [3] and or reslt is that the regions in [3] are not easy to visalize, they are not convex and there is no garantee that these regions are strictly contained in the Gass-Lcas polygon In fact, a calclation of the regions stdied in [3, Corollary ] shows that in none of the cases stdied in Example 3 below are these regions strictly inclded in the corresponding contracted Gass-Lcas polygons constrcted in this note Therefore, the best prediction for the location of the nontrivial critical points of a polynomial is obtained as the intersection of the regions from [3] and or contracted Gass-Lcas polygon Received by the editors October 9, and, in revised form, Febrary, 3 Mathematics Sbject Classification Primary 3C5; Secondary 6C Key words and phrases Roots of polynomials, critical points of polynomials, Gass-Lcas theorem c 4 American Mathematical Society
3 BRANKO ĆURGUS AND VANIA MASCIONI What we set ot to do in this paper (see Theorem ) is to frnish a mch easier procedre that allows s to give a simple specific description of a certain strip from Walsh s qote for any polynomial p with at least two distinct roots, and this strip actally applies to the entire bondary of the Lcas polygon For a historic accont on the Lcas theorem see [6, Section ] For applications of the Lcas theorem in different settings see [, 4, 7, 8, 9,,, 3] We consider complex polynomials By z we denote the complex conjgate of z C and D(, r) denotes a closed disk in C with radis r> and center C Theorem (Gass-Lcas theorem) Let p be a non-constant polynomial with derivative p All the roots of p lie in the convex hll of the roots of p We inclde an explicit proof of this theorem becase this allows s to introdce notation and eqations sefl in the seqel We note that this nsally simple proof, while not common in recent books, is not new: see, for instance, [5, Theorem 44] or [3, Theorem 9] Proof Let ζ be a nontrivial root of p ;thatis,letp (ζ) =andp(ζ) Let w,,w k be all the (distinct) roots of p with mltiplicities m,,m k, respectively It is no restriction to assme that p is of the form k () p(z) = (z w j ) mj j= Taking the derivative of () and dividing by p(z) weget p (z) () p(z) = m j z w j Sbstitting ζ in () and sing the fact that =weobtain = p (ζ) p(ζ) = m j m j = ζ w j ζ w j Ths = j= (3) = wherewept Solving (3) for ζ we get j= j= j= m j ζ w j ζ w j ζ w j = m j ζ w j (ζ w j) j= (4) ζ = j= m j ζ w j (ζ w j)= c j := where (5) d j := c j (ζ w j ), j= m j ζ w j > j =,,k ( ) k j= c c j w j = j j= d j w j, j= c j k µ= c, j =,k µ
4 A CONTRACTION OF THE LUCAS POLYGON 3 Clearly <d j, j=,,k,and k j= d j = Ths,(4)showsthatζ is in the convex hll of the roots of p and the theorem is proved Next we define the qantities that we will need to formlate and prove an improvement of the Gass-Lcas theorem Let p be a polynomial of degree n, n, and assme that p has at least two distinct roots Let Z(p) denotethesetofall roots of p Define ω(p, w) :=min { w v : v Z(p),w v }, w Z(p), ω(p) :=min { w v : w, v Z(p),w v }, Ω(p) :=max { w v : w, v Z(p),w v }, τ(p, w) :=min { w v : v Z(p ),v w }, w Z(p), τ(p) :=min { w v : w Z(p),v Z(p ),v w }, T (p) :=max { w v : w Z(p),v Z(p ),v w } In [, Theorem 4] we proved the following ineqalities: (6) < n ω(p) τ(p) sin(π/n) ω(p) and (7) < m w n ω(p, w) τ(p, w) ω(p, w), sin(π/(n m w )) where m w is the mltiplicity of w Z(p) We will also need the following elementary estimate: (8) T (p) Ω(p) τ(p) To see this, let w Z(p) andζ Z(p ),ζ w, be sch that w ζ = T (p) If l is the line passing throgh ζ and perpendiclar to the segment wζ, then Lcas theorem implies that some v Z(p) exists in the half-plane bonded by l and not containing w Sincev does not lie inside the disk D(v, τ(p)), it follows that Ω w v T (p) + τ(p), and so (8) follows Using (8) and (6) now gives (9) T (p) Ω(p) ω(p) /n Theorem Let p be a non-constant polynomial of degree n with derivative p Let w,,w k be all the (distinct) roots of p with mltiplicities m,,m k, respectively Pt δ = k j= δ j,where and define m j δ j := m j +(n Ω(p) ω(p) ) i j w b := δ δ j w j j=, m iω(p,w i) Then <δ< and all the nontrivial roots of p (that is, the roots of p that are not the roots of p) lie in the Swiss cheese -like region obtained by removing the interiors of all the disks D ( w j,m j ω(p, w j )/n ),j =,,k, from the convex
