We study the Riemannian distance function from a fixed point (a point-wise target) of Euclidean space in the presence of a compact obstacle bounded by a smooth hypersurface. First, we show that such a function is locally semiconcave with a…

This paper is devoted to various applications of Hardy-Sobolev type inequalities. We derive a new $L^2$ estimate for the $\bar{\partial}-$equation on ${\mathbb C}^n$ which yields a quantitative generalization of the Hartogs extension…

The Bregman distance $B_{\xi_x}(y,x)$, $\xi_x \in \partial J(y),$ associated to a convex sub-differentiable functional $J$ is known to be in general non-symmetric in its arguments $x$, $y$. In this note we address the question when Bregman…

The central purpose of the present paper is to study boundary behavior of squeezing functions on bounded domains. We prove that the squeezing function of a strongly pseudoconvex domain tends to 1 near the boundary. In fact, such an estimate…

In the present paper we shall study a variational problem relating the weighted Hardy inequalities with sharp missing terms. As weights we treat non-doubling functions of the distance to the boundary of bounded domain.

We consider the $L^p$ Hardy inequality involving the distance to the boundary of a domain in the $n$-dimensional Euclidean space with nonempty compact boundary. We extend the validity of known existence and non-existence results, as well as…

We prove two improved versions of the Hardy-Rellich inequality for the polyharmonic operator $(-\Delta)^m$ involving the distance to the boundary. The first involves an infinite series improvement using logarithmic functions, while the…

In this work we prove some Hardy-Poincar\'{e} inequalities with quadratic singular potentials localized on the boundary of a smooth domain. Then, we consider conical domains with vertex on the singularity and we show upper and lower bounds…

Let $\Omega$ be an open connected cone in $\mathbb{R}^n$ with vertex at the origin. Assume that the operator $$P_\mu:=-\Delta-\frac{\mu}{\delta_\Omega^2(x)}$$ is {\em subcritical} in $\Omega$, where $\delta_\Omega$ is the distance function…

We consider weighted Hardy inequalities involving the distance function to the boundary of a domain in the $N$-dimensional Euclidean space with nonempty boundary. We give a lower bound for the corresponding best Hardy constant for a domain…

A direct proof of Oka's lemma on the relation of holomorphic convexity and the properties of the distance to the boundary function is provided. Some related problems for subharmonicity properties of this function are also studied. A new…

We show that for certain boundary values McShane-Whitney's minimal-extension-like function is $\infty$-harmonic near the boundary and is not $C^2$ on a dense subset.

Calculating the spectral invariant of Floer homology of the distance function, we can find some kind of superheavy subsets in symplectic manifolds. We show if convex open subsets in Euclidian space with the standard symplectic form are…

An inequality of Hardy type is established for quadratic forms involving Dirac operator and a weight $r^{-b}$ for functions in $\R^n$. The exact Hardy constant $c_b=c_b(n)$ is found and generalized minimizers are given. The constant $c_b$…

Classical boundary Hardy inequality, that goes back to 1988, states that if $1 < p < \infty, \ ~\Omega$ is bounded Lipschitz domain, then for all $u \in C^{\infty}_{c}(\Omega)$, $$\int_{\Omega} \frac{|u(x)|^{p}}{\delta^{p}_{\Omega}(x)} dx…

Let $G$ be a nonempty bounded domain in a finite-dimensional Euclidean space. The main results are general estimates from below at points from $G$ for an arbitrary subharmonic function $u\not\equiv -\infty$ on the closure of the domain $G$…

We prove that a closed convex subset of a Banach space is (super-)weakly compact if and only if it is (super)-ergodic. As a consequence we deduce that super weakly compact sets are characterized by the fixed point property for continuous…

Let $\O$ be a smooth bounded domain in $\R^N$ with $N\ge 1$. In this paper we study the Hardy-Poincar\'e inequalities with weight function singular at the boundary of $\O$. In particular we give sufficient conditions so that the best…
