Nikolskii constants for polynomials on the unit sphere (Q2177963)

The aim of this paper is to determine the asymptotic behavior of the exact constants of the Nikolskii inequalities for the space \(\Pi_{n}^{d}\) of spherical polynomials of degree at most \(n\) on the unit sphere \(\mathbb{S}^{d}\subset \mathbb{R}^{d+1} \) as \(n\to\infty\) (cf. Theorems 1.1 and 1.2, and their proofs in Sections 3, 4 and 5, respectively). More precisely, the authors show following main results: \begin{itemize} \item For \(0<p<\infty\), \[ \lim _{n \rightarrow \infty} \sup \left\{\frac{\|P\|_{L^{\infty}\left(S^{d}\right)}}{n^{\frac{d}{p}}\|P\|_{L_{V\left(\mathbb{S}^{d}\right)}}}: P \in \Pi_{n}^{d}\right\}=\sup \left\{\frac{\|f\|_{L^{\infty}\left(\mathbb{R}^{d}\right)}}{\|f\|_{L^{p}\left(\mathbb{R}^{d}\right)}}: f \in \mathcal{E}_{p}^{d}\right\}, \] where \(\mathcal{E}_{p}^{d}\) denotes the space of all entire functions of spherical exponential type at most \(1\) whose restrictions to \(\mathbb{R}^{d}\) belong to the space \(L^{p}\left(\mathbb{R}^{d}\right)\), and the convention \(0/0=0\) is adopted. \item For \(0<p<q<\infty\), \[ \liminf _{n \rightarrow \infty} \sup \left\{\frac{\|P\|_{L^{q}\left(S^{d}\right)}}{n^{d(1 / p-1 / q)}\|P\|_{L^{p}\left(S^{d}\right)}}: P \in \Pi_{n}^{d}\right\} \geq \sup \left\{\frac{\|f\|_{L^{q}\left(\mathbb{R}^{d}\right)}}{\|f\|_{L^{p}\left(\mathbb{R}^{d}\right)}}: f \in \mathcal{E}_{p}^{d}\right\}. \] \item The exact value of the Nikolskii constant for \(p=1\), \(q=\infty\) and nonnegative functions \(f \in \mathcal{E}_{1}^{d}\). \end{itemize} As the authors point out, their results extend those of \textit{E. Levin} and \textit{D. S. Lubinsky} [J. Anal. Math. 125, 243--283 (2015; Zbl 1320.30010); Comput. Methods Funct. Theory 15, No. 3, 459--468 (2015; Zbl 1327.42030)] for trigonometric polynomials on the unit circle.
