Carleman's inequality for Hilbert-Schmidt operators and its generalizations for Schatten-von Neumann operator ideals (see [7]) are shown to be sharp in a certain sense. Explicit classes of extremizing operators are found on which the generalized Carleman inequalities turn to asymptotic equalities. Applications are made to a priori estimation of the solutions of Fredholm and Volterra first- and second kind integral equations and to perturbation and error analysis. Some further generalizations are considered which extend the applications to singular integral equations, pseudodifferential equations and analytic functions of operator argument.
