Abstract

We obtain a sharp estimate for the best constant C>0C>0 in the Wirtinger type inequality 02πγpw2C02πγqw2 \int_0^{2\pi}\gamma^pw^2\le C\int_0^{2\pi}\gamma^qw'^2 where γ\gamma is bounded above and below away from zero, ww is 2π2\pi-periodic and such that 02πγpw=0\int_0^{2\pi}\gamma^pw=0, and p+q0p+q\ge0. Our result generalizes an inequality of Piccinini and Spagnolo.
