In this paper, we generalize some earlier well known results by considering polynomials of lacunary type having some zeros at origin and rest of the zeros on or outside the boundary of a prescribed disk.
Keywords: Polynomial, Zeros, Exterior of circle, Lacunary
1. Introduction
Let
The above result, which is an immediate consequence of Bernstein’s inequality on the derivative of a trigonometric polynomial is best possible with equality holding for the polynomial
For the class of polynomials having all their zeros in |
On the other hand, if the polynomial

Chan and Malik [2] obtained a generalization of (
Theorem A
The next result was proved by Pukhta [10], who infact proved:
Theorem B
Theorem C
The above result was independently given by Govil [5]. For the polynomials of type
Theorem D
For the proofs of above theorems, we need the following lemmas. The first result is due to Qazi [11, Lemma 1].
Lemma 2.1
The next lemma which we need is due to Dewan and Hans [4].
Lemma 2.2
Theorem 2.3
Let

is a polynomial of degree
This gives for |
The above inequality holds for all points on |
Let
Choosing the argument of λ such that
and letting |λ| → 1
Combining the inequalities (
From (
This gives from (
This completes the proof of Theorem 2.3.
