A sufficient condition for a complex polynomial to have only simple zeros and an analog of Hutchinson's theorem for real polynomials

We find the constant $b_{\infty}$ ($b_{\infty} \approx 4.81058280$) such that if a complex polynomial or entire function $f(z) = \sum_{k=0}^ ωa_k z^k,$ $ω\in \{2, 3, 4, \ldots \} \cup \{\infty\},$ with nonzero coefficients satisfy the conditions $\left|\frac{a_k^2}{a_{k-1} a_{k+1}}\right| >b_{\infty}$ for all $k =1, 2, \ldots, ω-1,$ then all the zeros of $f$ are simple. We show that the constant $b_{\infty}$ in the statement above is the smallest possible. We also obtain an analog of Hutchinson's theorem for polynomials or entire functions with real nonzero coefficients.
