VN-TST 1999 Problem 2

  • Day 1

Two polynomials f(x)f(x) and g(x)g(x) with real coefficients are called similar if there exist nonzero real number a such that f(x)=q⋅g(x)f(x) = q \cdot g(x) for all x∈Rx \in R .

I. Show that there exists a polynomial P(x)P(x) of degree 1999 with real coefficients which satisfies the condition: (P(x))2−4(P(x))^2 - 4 and (P′(x))2⋅(x2−4)(P'(x))^2 \cdot (x^2-4) are similar.

II. How many polynomials of degree 1999 are there which have above mentioned property.
