Abstract

Let P(z) be a polynomial of degree n having all its zeros in \(|z|\le 1\), then according to Turan (Compositio Mathematica 7:89–95, 2004)

$$\begin{aligned} \max \limits _{|Z|=1}|P'(z)|\ge \frac{n}{2}\max \limits _{|Z|=1}|P(z)|. \end{aligned}$$

In this paper, we shall use polar derivative and establish a generalisation and an extension of this result. Our results also generalize variety of other results.
