Meanings
- A conjecture concerning the relationship between the locations of roots and critical points of a polynomial function of a complex variable. It states that for a polynomial f(z)=(z-r_1)⋯(z-r_n), qquad (n>2) with all roots r₁, ..., rₙ inside the closed unit disk |z| ≤ 1, each of the n roots is at a distance no more than 1 from at least one critical point.
