Marden's Theorem
In mathematics, Marden's theorem, named after Morris Marden but proved about 100 years earlier by Jörg Siebeck, gives a geometric relationship between the zeroes of a third-degree polynomial with complex coefficients and the zeroes of its derivative. See also geometrical properties of polynomial roots. Statement A cubic polynomial has three zeroes in the complex number plane, which in general form a triangle, and the Gauss–Lucas theorem states that the roots of its derivative lie within this triangle. Marden's theorem states their location within this triangle more precisely: :Suppose the zeroes , , and of a third-degree polynomial are non-collinear. There is a unique ellipse inscribed in the triangle with vertices , , and tangent to the sides at their midpoints: the Steiner inellipse. The foci of that ellipse are the zeroes of the derivative . Additional relations between root locations and the Steiner inellipse By the Gauss–Lucas theorem, the root of the double deriva ...
