Higher Markov and Bernstein inequalities and fast decreasing polynomials with prescribed zeros (Q1697433)

Two of the most classical polynomial inequalities are the Bernstein inequality \[ \big|P_n'(x)\big|\leq\frac{n}{\sqrt{1-x^2}}\,{\|P_n\|}_{[-1,1]} \] and the Markov inequality \[ {\|P_n'\|}_{[-1,1]}\leq n^2{\|P_n\|}_{[-1,1]}, \] where \(P_n\) is an algebraic polynomial of degree at most \(n\) and \({\|\cdot\|}_{[-1,1]}\) denotes the sup-norm over the interval \([-1,1]\). Analogous results hold for trigonometric polynomials \(T_n\) of degree at most \(n\). In this paper, the authors establish some higher order Bernstein- and Markov-type inequalities, both for the \(k\)th derivative \(T_n^{(k)}\) of a trigonometric polynomial on a compact subset of the real line, and for the \(k\)th derivative \(P_n^{(k)}\) of an algebraic polynomial on a compact subset of the unit circle.
