Dewan, K. K.; Hans, Sunil On maximum modulus for the derivative of a polynomial. (English) Zbl 1190.30003 Ann. Univ. Mariae Curie-Skłodowska, Sect. A 63, 55-62 (2009). Summary: If \(P(z)\) is a polynomial of degree \(n\), having all its zeros in the disk \(|z|\leq k\), \(k\geq 1\), then it was shown by N. K. Govil [Proc. Am. Math. Soc. 41, 543–546 (1973; Zbl 0279.30004)] that \[ \underset{|z|=1} {\max}|P'(z)|\geq \frac{n}{1+k^n}\underset{|z|=1} {\max} |P(z)|. \] In this paper, we obtain a generalization as well as an improvement of the above inequality for polynomials of the type \(P(z) = c_0+\sum_{\nu =\mu}^n c_\nu z^\nu\), \(1\leq \mu \leq n\). Also, we generalize a result due to K. K. Dewan and A. Mir [Southeast Asian Bull. Math. 31, No. 4, 691–695 (2007; Zbl 1150.30001)] in this direction.
