AbstractThis paper addresses a number of questions concerning the size of factors of polynomials. Let p be a monic algebraic polynomial of degree n and suppose q1q2 … qi is a monic factor of p of degree m. Then we can, in many cases, exactly determine Here ‖ . ‖ is the supremum norm either on [—1, 1] or on {|z| ≤ 1}. We do this by showing that, in the interval case, for each m and n, the n-th Chebyshev polynomial is extremal. This extends work of Gel'fond, Mahler, Granville, Boyd and others. A number of variants of this problem are also considered.

Let f be a continuous real valued function defined on [−1, 1] and let En(f) denote the degree of best uniform approximation to f by algebraic polynomial of degree at most n. The supremum norm on [a, b] is denoted by ∥.∥[a, b] and the polynomial of degree n of best uniform approximation is denoted by Pn. We find a class of functions f such that there exists a fixed a ∈(−1, 1) with the following propertyfor some positive constants C and N independent of n. Moreover the sequence is optimal in the sense that if is replaced by then the above inequality need not hold no matter how small C > 0 is chosen.We also find another, more general class a functions f for whichinfinitely often.

In 1889, A. A. Markov proved the following inequality:INEQUALITY 1. (Markov [4]). If pn is any algebraic polynomial of degree at most n thenwhere ‖ ‖A denotes the supremum norm on A.In 1912, S. N. Bernstein establishedINEQUALITY 2. (Bernstein [2]). If pn is any algebraic polynomial of degree at most n thenfor x ∈ (a, b).In this paper we extend these inequalities to sets of the form [a, b] ∪ [c, d]. Let Πn denote the set of algebraic polynomials with real coefficients of degree at most n.THEOREM 1. Let a < b ≦ c < d and let pn ∈ Πn. Thenfor x ∈ (a, b).

Abstract The aim of the paper is to investigate the solvability of an infinite system of nonlinear integral equations on the real half-axis. The considerations will be located in the space of function sequences which are bounded at every point of the half-axis. The main tool used in the investigations is the technique associated with measures of noncompactness in the space of functions defined, continuous and bounded on the real half-axis with values in the space l∞ consisting of real bounded sequences endowed with the standard supremum norm. The essential role in our considerations is played by the fact that we will use a measure of noncompactness constructed on the basis of a measure of noncompactness in the mentioned sequence space l∞. An example illustrating our result will be included.

In the present note we study the question: “Under which general conditions do certain Boolean sums of linear operators satisfy Telyakovskiǐ-type estimates?” It is shown, in particular, that any sequence of linear algebraic polynomial operators satisfying a Timan-type inequality can be modified appropriately so as to obtain the corresponding upper bound of the Telyakovskiǐ-type. Several examples are included.

The three-dimensional (3D) free vibration of twisted cylinders with sectorial cross section or a radial crack through the height of the cylinder is studied by means of the Chebyshev–Ritz method. The analysis is based on the three-dimensional small strain linear elasticity theory. A simple coordinate transformation is applied to map the twisted cylindrical domain into a normal cylindrical domain. The product of a triplicate Chebyshev polynomial series along with properly defined boundary functions is selected as the admissible functions. An eigenvalue matrix equation can be conveniently derived through a minimization process by the Rayleigh–Ritz method. The boundary functions are devised in such a way that the geometric boundary conditions of the cylinder are automatically satisfied. The excellent property of Chebyshev polynomial series ensures robustness and rapid convergence of the numerical computations. The present study provides a full vibration spectrum for thick twisted cylinders with sectorial cross section, which could not be determined by 1D or 2D models. Highly accurate results presented for the first time are systematically produced, which can serve as a benchmark to calibrate other numerical solutions for twisted cylinders with sectorial cross section. The effects of height-to-radius ratio and twist angle on frequency parameters of cylinders with different subtended angles in the sectorial cross section are discussed in detail.

SynopsisA Volterra integro-partial differential equation of parabolic type, which describes the time evolution of a population in a bounded habitat, subject both to past history and space diffusion effects, is investigated; general homogeneous boundary conditions are admissible. Under suitable conditions, the unique nontrivial nonnegative equilibrium is shown to be globally attractive in the supremum norm. Monotone methods are the main tool of the proof.
