Résumé

We study the inequality $\|y'\|_{L_q(G)}\le K(r,p, G) \|y\|_{L_r(G)}^{1/2}\|y'' \|_{L_p(G)}^{1/2}$ on the real line $G=\mathbb{R}$ and on the period $\mathbb{T}$ for $q\in [1,\infty)$, $r\in (0, \infty]$, $p\in[1, \infty ]$, and $1/r+1/p=2/q$. We prove that the exact constant $K(r,p,\mathbb{R})$ is equal to the exact constant $K_1$ in the inequality $\|u'\|_{L_q[0,1]}\le K_1 \|u\|_{ L_r[0,1]}^{1/2} \|u''\|_{L_p[0,1]}^{1/2}$ over the set of convex functions $u(x)$, $x\in [0,1]$, having an absolutely continuous derivative and satisfying the condition $u'(0)=u(1)=0$. As a consequence of this statement, the equality $K(r,p,\mathbb{R})=K(r,p,\mathbb{T})$ established in 2003 by V. F. Babenko, V. A. Kofanov, and S. A. Pichugov for $r\ge 1$, is extended to $r\ge 1/2$. In addition, we give a new proof of the equality $K(r,1,\mathbb{R})=(r+1)^{1/(2(r+1))}$ for $p=1$, $r\in [1,\infty)$, and $q=2r/(r+1)$, which was established by V. V. Arestov and V. I. Berdyshev in 1975.
