In this paper we study the problem of deriving further Sobolev inequalities from a given Sobolev inequality. We use several different methods, including Bessel potentials and Riesz transforms. We apply the results to the Ricci flow to…
In this paper, we present recent stability results with explicit and dimensionally sharp constants and optimal norms for the Sobolev inequality and for the Gaussian logarithmic Sobolev inequality obtained by the authors in [24]. The…
We present isocapacitary characterizations of Sobolev inequalities in very general metric measure spaces.
We prove an improved form of an expectation of Polya and discuss several related questions
In this paper, we review recent results on stability and instability in logarithmic Sobolev inequalities, with a particular emphasis on strong norms. We consider several versions of these inequalities on the Euclidean space, for the…
The conjecture about the Orlicz P\'olya-Szeg\"o principle posed in [43] is proved. The cases of equality are characterized in the affine Orlicz P\'olya-Szeg\"o principle with respect to Steiner symmetrization and Schwarz spherical…
We discuss our work on pointwise inequalities for the gradient which are connected with the isoperimetric profile associated to a given geometry. We show how they can be used to unify certain aspects of the theory of Sobolev inequalities.…
We consider Gagliardo-Nirenberg inequalities on the sphere which interpolate between the Poincar\'e inequality and the Sobolev inequality, and include the logarithmic Sobolev inequality as a special case. We establish explicit stability…
We derive some anisotropic Sobolev inequalities in $\mathbb{R}^{n}$ with a monomial weight in the general setting of rearrangement invariant spaces. Our starting point is to obtain an integral oscillation inequality in multiplicative form.
This paper is devoted to improvements of Sobolev and Onofri inequalities. The additional terms involve the dual counterparts, i.e. Hardy-Littlewood-Sobolev type inequalities. The Onofri inequality is achieved as a limit case of Sobolev type…
In this paper, we establish a weighted capillary isoperimetric inequality outside convex sets using the $\lambda_w$-ABP method. The weight function $w$ is assumed to be positive, even, and homogeneous of degree $\alpha$, such that…
In this paper, we generalize Szego's theorem for orthogonal polynomials on the real line to infinite gap sets of Parreau-Widom type. This notion includes Cantor sets of positive measure. The Szego condition involves the equilibrium measure…
We consider a class of isoperimetric problems on $\mathbb{R}^{N}_{+} $ where the volume and the area element carry two different weights of the type $|x|^lx_N^\alpha$. We solve them in a special case while a more detailed study is contained…
Let S be a Sobolev or Orlicz-Sobolev space of functions not necessarily vanishing at the boundary of the domain. We give sufficient conditions on a nonnegative function in S in order that its spherical rearrangement ("Schwartz…
We develop in this paper an amelioration of the method given by S. Bobkov and M. Ledoux in GAFA (2000). We prove by Prekopa-Leindler Theorem an optimal modified logarithmic Sobolev inequality adapted for all log-concave measure on $\dR^n$.…
We consider a multidimensional version of an inequality due to Leray as a substitute for Hardy's inequality in the case $p=n\geq2.$ In this paper we provide an optimal Sobolev-type improvement of this substitute, analogous to the…
We verify an old conjecture of G. Polya and G. Szego saying that the regular n-gon minimizes the logarithmic capacity among all n-gons with a fixed area.
In this paper we will study the equivalence between super-Poincar\'e inequality and some log-Sobolev type inequalities, including weak log-Sobolev inequality and super log-Sobolev inequality. The explicit relations between associated rate…
We prove a logarithmic Sobolev trace inequality in a gaussian space and we study the trace operator in the weighted Sobolev space W^{1,p}(\Omega,\gamma) for sufficiently regular domain. We exhibit examples to show the sharpness of the…
In these notes, we present versions of trace theorems for Sobolev spaces over an interval in the real line, and also a one-dimensional version of the well-known Poincare inequality.
