    Abstract

    In this note we prove results of the following types. Let be given distinct complex numbers satisfying the conditions for and for every there exists an such that . Then If, moreover, none of the ratios with is a root of unity, then The constant −1 in the former result is the best possible. The above results are special cases of upper bounds for obtained in this paper.
