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…

A full characterization of the boundedness of Laplace--Carleson embeddings on $L^\infty$ is provided, in terms of the Carleson intensity of the respective measure and of a suitable weighted Berezin transform of the measure. Moreover,…

For functions $f(z)= z+ a_2 z^2 + a_3 z^3 + \cdots$ in various subclasses of normalized analytic functions, we consider the problem of estimating the generalized Zalcman coefficient functional $\phi(f,n,m;\lambda):=|\lambda a_n a_m…
