Consider the polynomial $x^{n+1}+y^{n+1}+yx^n$ where $ninmathbb{N}$ is odd. I would like to find the real roots of this polynomial. I believe the only root is $(x,y)=(0,0)$. So far, I've been able to show that if we have a root different than $(0,0)$ then either $x>0,y<0$ or $x<0,y>0$. One would only have to check for one of the cases, since the polynomial is homogeneous. However, I'm completely stuck. Any ideas? Thank you in advance.

Using the well-known inequality $ab le frac{a^p}{p} + frac{b^q}{q}$ for $a, , b ge 0$, where $p^{-1} + q^{-1} = 1$, one can estimate
$$
yx^n ge - |y||x|^n ge - frac{|y|^{n+1}}{n+1} - frac{n|x|^{n+1}}{n+1}
$$
and therefore, since $n+1$ is even,
$$
y^{n+1} +y^{n+1} + yx^n ge frac{n}{n+1}y^{n+1} + frac{1}{n+1}x^{n+1} , .
$$
This is positive except if $x = y = 0$.

As the polynomial is homogeneous, you solve
$$t^{n+1}+t+1=0$$ and all $(x,tx)$ are solutions.
But it doesn't take long to see that the polynomial has no real roots.

Using the well-known inequality $ab le frac{a^p}{p} + frac{b^q}{q}$ for $a, , b ge 0$, where $p^{-1} + q^{-1} = 1$, one can estimate
$$
yx^n ge - |y||x|^n ge - frac{|y|^{n+1}}{n+1} - frac{n|x|^{n+1}}{n+1}
$$
and therefore, since $n+1$ is even,
$$
y^{n+1} +y^{n+1} + yx^n ge frac{n}{n+1}y^{n+1} + frac{1}{n+1}x^{n+1} , .
$$
This is positive except if $x = y = 0$.
