We seek for explicit expressions of h in terms of g. We give some results of this type and show that Domar’s work Domar, Y Ark. Mat. 3, 429–440 (1957) permits one to deduce other results in this direction. Then we compare these two approaches. Similar results are deduced for estimates of analytic functions.2026http://zaguan.unizar.es/record/16938010.1007/s00025-026-02606-7http://zaguan.unizar.es/record/169380oai:zaguan.unizar.es:169380info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/ES/DGA/E48-23Rinfo:eu-repo/grantAgreement/ES/MICINN/PID2022-137294NB-I00info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/ES/MICINN/PID2022-138342NB-I00Results in Mathematics 81, 2 (2026), [25 pp.]byhttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/deed.esinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess
