Let $\Gamma$ be a smooth Jordan arc and $x_0\in \Gamma$ a point that is different from the endpoints of $\Gamma$. The talk will be about the smallest constant $B_{x_0}$ for which
$$
|P_n'(x_0)|\le B_{x_0}(1+o(1))n\|P_n\|_\Gamma
$$
for all polynomials $P_n$ of degree $n=1,2,\dots$, where $o(1)$ tends to 0 (uniformly in $P_n$) as $n\to\infty$.
Thus, this $B_{x_0}$ is the asymptotically sharp Bernstein factor at the point $x_0$. It turns out that
$B_{x_0}=\max (g'_+(x_0),g'_-(x_0))$, where $g$ is the Green's function of $\overline C\setminus \Gamma$ with pole at infinity, and $g'_\pm(x_0)$ are the normal derivatives of $g$ at $x_0$ with respect to the two normals to $\Gamma$ at $x_0$. The proof uses in an essential way a result of Gonchar and Grigorian on the
supremum norm of the sum of the principal parts of a meromorphic function on the boundary of the given domain in terms of the supremum norm of the function itself.
The asymptotically best Markov factor $M=M_\Gamma$, i.e. the smallest $M$ for which
$$
\|P_n'\|_\Gamma \le M(1+o(1))n^2\|P_n\|_\Gamma
$$
is true, is also expressed in terms of the normal derivative of the associated Green's function. Similar results
are established for rational functions provided the poles lie in a closed set disjoint from $\Gamma$.
This is a joint work with Sergei Kalmykov and Béla Nagy.
