Bernstein's inequality (mathematical analysis)

Bernstein's inequality (mathematical analysis)

In the mathematical theory of mathematical analysis, Bernstein's inequality, named after Sergei Natanovich Bernstein, is defined as follows.

Let "P" be a polynomial of degree n with derivative "P′". Then

:max(P') le ncdotmax(P)

where we define the maximum of a polynomial to be the maximum value attained within a unit disk:

:max(X) = max_{|z| leq 1} ig|X(z)ig|.

The inequality is named after Sergei Natanovich Bernstein and finds uses in the field of approximation theory.

Using the Bernstein's inequality we have for the "k":th derivative,

:max(P^{(k)}) le frac{n!}{(n-k)!} cdotmax(P).
