Keywords: polynomial roots, Lagrange's bound.
Abstract: Let F(X) = X^d + a_1X^(d-1) + ... + a_d be a polynomial with real coefficients. Lagrange stated that a bound for the positive roots is given by the nmber R+r, where R and r are the largest numbers in the sequence (|a_i|^(1/i)). We obtain a refinement of this result and study its efficiency. The proofs are based on the following Theorem: The the largest positive root of the polynomial u(X)=(X−2r)X^j −(R^j − ρ^j )(X − ρ) is an upper bound for the absolute values of the roots of the polynomial F.
