We develop local elliptic regularity for operators having coefficients in a range of Sobolev-type function spaces (Bessel potential, Sobolev-Slobodeckij, Triebel-Lizorkin, Besov) where the coefficients have a regularity structure typical of…

Spherical symmetry arguments are used to produce a general device to convert identities and inequalities for the $p$th absolute moments of real-valued random variables into the corresponding identities and inequalities for the $p$th moments…

We initiate the theory of $\ell^p$-improving inequalities for arithmetic averages over hypersurfaces and their maximal functions. In particular, we prove $\ell^p$-improving estimates for the discrete spherical averages and some of their…

Sharp affine fractional $L^p$ Sobolev inequalities for functions on $\mathbb R^n$ are established. The new inequalities are stronger than (and directly imply) the sharp fractional $L^p$ Sobolev inequalities. They are fractional versions of…

In this paper, we show that the 2-sphere does not exhibit symmetry of $L^p$ norms of eigenfunctions of the Laplacian for $p\geq 6$. In other words, there exists a sequence of spherical eigenfunctions $\psi_n$, with eigenvalues…

We aim to contribute to the folklore of function spaces on Lipschitz domains. We prove the boundedness of the trace operator for homogeneous Sobolev and Besov spaces on a special Lipschitz domain with sharp regularity. To achieve this, we…

In this note, we introduce a variant of Calder\'on and Zygmund's notion of $L^p$-differentiability - an \emph{$L^p$-Taylor approximation}. Our first result is that functions in the Sobolev space $W^{1,p}(\mathbb{R}^N)$ possess a first order…

The transmission eigenvalue problem (TEP) plays a central role in inverse scattering theory. Despite substantial theoretical progress, the numerical solution of direct and inverse TEP in spherically symmetric domains with variable…

The spherical cap discrepancy is a prominent measure of uniformity for sets on the d-dimensional sphere. It is particularly important for estimating the integration error for certain classes of functions on the sphere. Building on a…

The Ligon-Schaaf regularization (LS mapping) was introduced in 1976 and has been used several times. However, we are not aware of any direct usage of the inverse mapping, perhaps since it appears at first sight to be quite complex and…

In dimensions $n\ge 2$ we obtain $L^{p_1}(\mathbb R^n) \times\dots\times L^{p_m}(\mathbb R^n)$ to $L^p(\mathbb R^n)$ boundedness for the multilinear spherical maximal function in the largest possible open set of indices and we provide…

Let $m,n\in\mathbb{N}$ and $p\in(0,\infty)$. For a finite dimensional quasi-normed space $X=(\mathbb{R}^m, \|\cdot\|_X)$, let $$B_p^n(X) = \Big\{ (x_1,\ldots,x_n)\in\big(\mathbb{R}^{m}\big)^n: \ \sum_{i=1}^n \|x_i\|_X^p \leq 1\Big\}.$$ We…

This paper studies critical fractional Sobolev inequalities with lower-order terms on the standard CR sphere $\mathbb S^{2n+1}$. Let $Q=2n+2$, let $s\in(0,1)$, let $1<p<Q$, and let $p_s^*=\frac{Qp}{Q-sp}$. For the inequality…

We prove new concentration estimates for random variables that are functionals of a Poisson measure defined on a general measure space. Our results are specifically adapted to geometric applications, and are based on a pervasive use of a…

Spatial stochastic processes that are modeled over the entire Earth's surface require statistical approaches that directly consider the spherical domain. Here, we extend the notion of intrinsic random functions (IRF) to model non-stationary…

An inequality for the $p$th power of the norm of a stochastic convolution integral in a Hilbert space is proved. The inequality is stronger than analogues inequalities in the Literature in the sense that it is pathwise and not in…

In this paper we study approximations of functions of Sobolev spaces $W^2_{p,\loc}(\Omega)$, $\Omega\subset\mathbb R^n$, by Lipschitz continuous functions. We prove that if $f\in W^2_{p,\loc}(\Omega)$, $1\leq p<\infty$, then there exists a…

Interpolation inequalities in Triebel-Lizorkin-Lorentz spaces and Besov-Lorentz spaces are studied for both inhomogeneous and homogeneous cases. First we establish interpolation inequalities under quite general assumptions on the parameters…
