Consider $a(t)\in\mathbf{L}^{2}(\mathbb{R})$ and $a(t)>0$, is a low pass smooth function with $\hat{a}(f)=0, |f|>f_{max}$. Can we have a upper bound on the following, $\Big|\frac{a'(t)}{a(t)}\Big|$? Using Bernstien's theorem we can upper bound $|a'(t)|$ alone based on $f_{max}$ but how can we upper bound the ratio mentioned here. Any suggestions for it.

0@ dexter04: Based on Bernstein's theorem, $|a'(t)|\leq2f_{max} |a_{max}|$. – 2012-11-29
