Let $\lambda > 0$ and let $f \in L^1(\mathbb{R}) \cap \mathcal{C}^1(\mathbb{R})$ such that $\hat{f} \in L^1(\mathbb{R})$ and such that $\hat{f}$ is zero outside the segment $[-\lambda, \lambda]$.

Let $x \in \mathbb{R} \backslash \mathbb{Z}$. Let $m \in \mathbb{N}$ such that $m > |x|$. We set, for $n \in \mathbb{N}$ such that $n > m$: $$v_{m,n}(x) = \prod_{k=m+1}^{n}\left(1 - \frac{\sin^2\left(\frac{\pi x}{2n+1}\right)}{\sin^2\left(\frac{k\pi}{2n+1}\right)}\right).$$ We denote $v_m(x)$ the limit of $\left(v_{m,n}(x)\right)_{n > m}$.
Show that, for $n \in \mathbb{N}$ such that $n > m$, we have $$1 \geqslant v_{m,n}(x) \geqslant \prod_{k=m+1}^{n}\left(1 - \frac{\pi^2 x^2}{4k^2}\right)$$ and deduce that $\lim_{m \rightarrow +\infty} v_m(x) = 1$.

We assume that there exist $a > 0, b > 0$ such that $$g \prec a\left(I + \frac{g^2}{b - g}\right)$$ and $h$ is the function from question (11).

We consider the special case of a series of the form $f = I + F, F \in O_2$. We denote $G := f^\dagger - I, G \in O_2$.
