Upper bound for the $n$-th derivative of a rational function $\frac{f}{f+g}$
Let $f$ and $g$ be real polynomials with nonnegative coefficients. Let
$$
h = \frac{f}{f+g}.
$$
I want to prove that the $n$-th derivative of $h$ satisfies:
There exists $C > 0$ such that
$$

An inequality for polynomials
I have been thinking about the validity of the following inequality: if $P(z)=\sum_{k=0}^na_kz^k, a_n\neq 0$ and $P(z)$ is non-zero in $|z|<1, $ then for $\theta \in [0, 2\pi],$ and $p>0$

Maximal increasing behaviour of $\sqrt{-\log x}\operatorname{Li}_{1/2}(x)$
This is an extension of a problem in mathematical biology. It appears that
For any $\varepsilon>0$, there exists an interval $I\subset(0,1)$ on which $\sqrt{-\log x}^{1+\varepsilon}\operatorname{...

Estimate the homogeneous components of a polynomial against its maximum
Let $P\equiv P(x) := \sum_{|\alpha|\leq m} c_\alpha\cdot x^\alpha$ be a real polynomial in $d$ variables of (total) degree $m$, where $d, m \in\mathbb{N}$ are fixed.
(I.e., the above sum ranges over ...

Is this function concave?
Let
$$h(u):=u^3 \left|\int_u^\infty \frac{e^{-i t}}{t^3} \, dt\right|$$
for $u>0$. Is the function $h$ concave on $(0,\infty)$?
(For context, see Proposition 4.4.4 and formula (4.4.21) in this ...

An inequality for an integral transform of a function
Let
$$J_{f;y}(u):=3 u^3 \int_u^1\frac{dt}{t^4} \,e^{-i y t}f(t)- e^{-i u y}f(u),$$
where $y\in(0,\infty)$, $u\in(0,1)$, and
$$f(t):=t+\pi (1-t) t \cot (\pi t).$$
Here are the graphs of $f$ (black), ...

Mittag-Leffler function
Let the Mittaq-Leffler function be defined by the expression
$$ E_{\mu,\nu}(z) = \sum_{k=0}^{\infty} \frac{z^k}{\Gamma(k\mu+\nu)}\quad \text{$\mu>0$ and $\nu\in \mathbb R$}$$
Now let $n\in \mathbb ...

Isoperimetric inequality for analytic functions on an annulus
Let $f$ be an anylytic function on the unid disk $|z|<1$. It is well known that
$$\left (\int_0^{2\pi}f(e^{i\theta})d \theta \right)^2 \geq 4\pi \iint_{|z|<1} |f(r e^{i\theta})|^2r dr d \theta.$...

An oscillatory integral estimate
Let $n \geq 3$ and consider two sequences of strictly monotone functions $\{\mu_l(t)\}_{l=1}^{n}$ and $\{\lambda_l(t)\}_{l=1}^n$ on the interval $[-1,1]$ with $\mu_l(0)=0$ and $\lambda_l(0)=1$ for all ...

seeking proofs: infinite series inequalities
Question. Numerically, the following is convincing. However, is there a proof?
$$\left(\sum_{k\geq1}\frac1{\sqrt{2^k+3^k}}\right)^4
<\pi^2\left(\sum_{k\geq1}\frac1{2^k+3^k}\right)\left(\sum_{k\...

An attempt to generalize the previous inequality
In my previous MO question, the inequality was about a specific series and nicely answered by Cherng-tiao Perng. After testing with a few more numerical infinite sums, I came to realize that perhaps ...
