Abstract

Let and We prove that there is an absolute constant c1 > 0 such that for every s ∈ (0, ∞) and n ≥ 9, where the supremum is taken for all fGn with This is what we call (an essentially sharp) Remez-type inequality for the class Gn. We also prove the right higher dimensional analog of the above result.
