In this paper, we study a shape optimization problem for the torsional energy associated with a domain contained in an infinite cylinder, under a volume constraint. We prove that a minimizer exists for all fixed volumes and show some of its…

We introduce Besov and Triebel--Lizorkin spaces on a manifold with boundary adapted to H\"ormander vector fields, near a so-called non-characteristic point of the boundary. We prove sharp results in these spaces for the corresponding…

The classical Sobolev and Escobar inequalities are embedded into the same one-parameter family of sharp trace-Sobolev inequalities on half-spaces. Equality cases are characterized for each inequality in this family by tweaking a well-known…

We prove that among all doubly connected domains of $\R^n$ bounded by two spheres of given radii, $Z(t)$, the trace of the heat kernel with Dirichlet boundary conditions, achieves its minimum when the spheres are concentric (i.e., for the…

Consider a Lipschitz domain $\Omega$ and a measurable function $\mu$ supported in $\overline\Omega$ with $\left\|{\mu}\right\|_{L^\infty}<1$. Then the derivatives of a quasiconformal solution of the Beltrami equation $\overline{\partial} f…

The aim of this article is to prove a quantitative inequality for the first eigenvalue of a Schr\"odinger operator in the ball. More precisely, we optimize the first eigenvalue $\lambda(V)$ of the operator $\mathcal L_v:=-\Delta-V$ with…

We characterize the trace of magnetic Sobolev spaces defined in a half-space or in a smooth bounded domain in which the magnetic field $A$ is differentiable and its exterior derivative corresponding to the magnetic field $dA$ is bounded. In…

Optimal weighted Sobolev-Lorentz embeddings with homogeneous weights in open convex cones are established, with the exact value of the optimal constant. These embeddings are non-compact, and this paper investigates the structure of their…

In this paper we study the asymptotic behavior of some optimal design problems related to nonlinear Steklov eigenvalues, under irregular (but diffeomorphic) perturbations of the domain.

We characterise equality cases in matrix H\"older's inequality and develop a divergence formulation of optimal transport of vector measures. As an application, we reprove the representation formula for measures in the polar cone to monotone…

We show that on $\mathbb S^1(1/\sqrt{d-2})\times\mathbb S^{d-1}(1)$ the conformally invariant Sobolev inequality holds with a remainder term that is the fourth power of the distance to the optimizers. The fourth power is best possible. This…

Optimal transport (OT) is a popular measure to compare probability distributions. However, OT suffers a few drawbacks such as (i) a high complexity for computation, (ii) indefiniteness which limits its applicability to kernel machines. In…

In this work we establish trace Hardy and trace Hardy-Sobolev-Maz'ya inequalities with best Hardy constants, for domains satisfying suitable geometric assumptions such as mean convexity or convexity. We then use them to produce fractional…

In this paper, we discuss the trace operator for homogeneous fractional Sobolev spaces over infinite strip-like domains. We determine intrinsic seminorms on the trace space that allow for a bounded right inverse. The intrinsic seminorm…

We consider the sharp Sobolev-Poincar\'e constant for the embedding of $W^{1,2}_0(\Omega)$ into $L^q(\Omega)$. We show that such a constant exhibits an unexpected dual variational formulation, in the range $1<q<2$. Namely, this can be…

We provide Sobolev estimates for solutions of first order Hamilton-Jacobi equations with Hamiltonians which are superlinear in the gradient variable. We also show that the solutions are differentiable almost everywhere. The proof relies on…

In this paper we obtain the best constants in some higher order Sobolev inequalities in the critical exponent. These inequalities can be separated into two types: those that embed into $L^\infty(\mathbb{R}^N)$ and those that embed into…

It is well known that if a random vector satisfies a log-Sobolev inequality, all of its marginals have subgaussian tails. In the spirit of the KLS conjecture, we investigate whether this implication can be reversed under a log-concavity…

We study fractional Sobolev and Besov spaces on noncompact Riemannian manifolds with bounded geometry. Usually, these spaces are defined via geodesic normal coordinates which, depending on the problem at hand, may often not be the best…

Let X and Y be planar Jordan domains of the same finite connectivity, Y being inner chordarc regular (such are Lipschitz domains). Every homeomorphism h:X->Y in the Sobolev space $W^{1,2}$ extends to a continuous map between closed domains.…
