Asymptotically sharp Bernstein- and Markov-type inequalities are established for rational functions on C2 smooth Jordan curves and arcs. The results are formulated in terms of the normal derivatives of certain Green’s functions with poles at the poles of the rational functions in question. As a special case (when all the poles are at infinity) the corresponding results for polynomials are recaptured.

Let X, Y be realcompact spaces or completely regular spaces consisting of X, Y -points. Let X, Y be a linear bijective map from X, Y (resp. X, Y ) onto X, Y (resp. X, Y ). We show that if X, Y preserves nonvanishing functions, that is,

We look for bounded periodic solutions for a parametric fractional problem involving a continuous nonlinearity with subcritical growth. By using a variant of Caffarelli and Silvestre extension method adapted to the periodic case and variational tools we prove the existence of at least three bounded periodic solutions when the parameter varies in an appropriate range.

This paper introduces a new concept, the quasi-range-preserving operator, and gives necessary and sufficient conditions for a linear operator to be quasi-range-preserving. As a special case Glicksberg's problem is affirmatively answered.

In this paper, we prove a sum set estimate and the exact sum set theorem for unimodular Kac algebras. Combining the characterization of minimizers of the Donoso–Stark uncertainty principle and the Hirschman–Beckner uncertainty principle, we characterize the extremal pairs of Young’s inequality and extremal operators of the Hausdorff–Young inequality for unimodular Kac algebras.
