bound

1
[see also: estimate] The above bound on an is close to best possible <to the best possible>.

We conclude that, no matter what the class of b is, we have an upper bound on M.  

2
[see also: dominate, estimate] F is bounded above <below> by a constant times f(z).

Then G is bounded away from zero.

Furthermore, K is an upper bound on <for> f(x) for x in K.

Theorem 1 can be used to bound the number of such T.
