If $f>0$ and $(ln f)'=f'/f$ is Lipschitz continuous, are we able to conclude that $(ln f)'''$ is bounded?












0














Let $fin C^2(mathbb R)$ be positive and $g:=ln f$. Assume $$g'=frac{f'}f$$ is Lipschitz continuous and hence $g''$ is bounded.




Is $g'''$ bounded too?

          No, of course. Let $$u(x)=begin{cases} e^{-x^2}x^2sin x^{-2}&text{if }xne 0\ 0&text{if }x=0end{cases}$$ and consider $$f(x)=expleft(int_0^x,dtint_0^t u(s),dsright)$$



          Then, $(ln f)''=u$, which is bounded and continuous, but $$u'(x)=begin{cases} 2(1-x^2)xe^{-x^2}sin x^{-2}-frac2xe^{-x^2}cos x^{-2}&text{if }xne 0\ 0&text{if }x=0end{cases}$$ is unbounded.

          • I see no reason why you couldn't patch my example (or a slight variation) with a suitable fast-decaying function outside of $[-1,1]$, but I haven't put much thought into that.
