Summary: | The classical Lucas' theorem on critical points of complex-valued polynomials has been generalized
(cf. [1]) to vector-valued polynomials defined on K-inner product spaces. In the present paper, we obtain
a generalization of Lucas' theorem to vector-valued abstract polynomials defined on vector spaces, in
general, which includes the above result of the author [1] in K-inner product spaces. Our main theorem
also deduces a well-known result due to Marden on linear combinations of polynomial and its derivative.
At the end, we discuss some examples in support of certain claims. |
