Abstract
A classical result of Aubin states that the constant in Moser-Trudinger-Onofri inequality on can be imporved for furnctions with zero first order moments of the area element. We generalize it to higher order moments case. These new inequalities bear similarity to a sequence of Lebedev-Milin type inequalities on coming from the work of Grenander-Szego on Toeplitz determinants (as pointed out by Widom). We also discuss the related sharp inequality by a perturbation method.
