Pisier's inequality is central in the study of normed spaces and has important applications in geometry. We provide an elementary proof of this inequality, which avoids some non-constructive steps from previous proofs. Our goal is to make…

The `full' edge isoperimetric inequality for the discrete cube (due to Harper, Bernstein, Lindsay and Hart) specifies the minimum size of the edge boundary $\partial A$ of a set $A \subset \{0,1\}^n$, as a function of $|A|$. A weaker (but…

In this paper, we point out a very flexible scheme within which a strict minimax inequality occurs. We then show the fruitfulness of this approach presenting a series of various consequences. Here is one of them: Let $Y$ be a…

We present some new results on the symmetric Kottman's constant $K^s(X)$ of a Banach space $X$ and its relationship with the Kottman constant. We show that $K^s(X)>1$, for every infinite-dimensional Banach space, thereby solving a problem…

We prove that for any $2<p<\infty$ and for every $n$-dimensional subspace $X$ of $L_p$, represented on $\mathbb R^n$, whose unit ball $B_X$ is in Lewis' position one has the following two-level Gaussian concentration inequality: \[ \mathbb…

We provide a generalization of two results of Knaust and Odell from \cite{KO2} and \cite{KO}. We prove that if $X$ is a Banach space and $(g_n)_{n=1}^\infty$ is a right dominant Schauder basis such that every normalized, weakly null…

We present lower estimates for the best constant appearing in the weak $(1,1)$ maximal inequality in the space $(\R^n,\|\cdot\|_{\iy})$. We show that this constant grows to infinity faster than $(\log n)^{1-o(1)}$ when $n$ tends to…

Let x(t) be a non-constant T-periodic solution to the ordinary differential equation x'= f(x) in a Banach space X where f is assumed to be Lipschitz continuous with constant L. Then there exists a constant c such that T L >= c, with c only…

Let $X$ be a Banach space. It is proved that an analogue of the Rubio de Francia square function estimate for partial sums of the Fourier series of $X$-valued functions holds true for all disjoint collections of subintervals of the set of…

This paper contains a study of the separable form $J_s(\cdot)$ of the classical Jung constant. We first establish, following Davis \cite{davis}, that a Banach space $X$ is $1$-separably injective if and only if $J_s(X)=1$. This…

Let $\{f_j\}_{j=1}^n$ and $\{g_k\}_{k=1}^m$ be Parseval p-frames for a finite dimensional Banach space $\mathcal{X}$. Then we show that \begin{align} (1) \quad\quad\quad\quad \log (nm)\geq S_f (x)+S_g (x)\geq -p \log…

We show that if $(X, \mu, T)$ is a probability measure-preserving dynamical system, and $\mathscr{P}$ is a countable partition of $(X, \mu)$, then the limit $$ \lim_{n, k \to \infty} \mathbb{E} \left[ \frac{1}{k} \sum_{j = 0}^{k - 1} f…

Let $p_n$ denote the $n$-th prime. In 2000, Panaitopol established the inequality $p_1 \cdots p_n > p_{n+1}^{n - \pi(n)}$ for all $n \geq 2$, where $\pi(x)$ is the prime counting function. In 2021, Yang and Liao refined this by introducing…

Consider the Poincar\'e-Sobolev inequality on the hyperbolic space: for every $n \geq 3$ and $1 < p \leq \frac{n+2}{n-2},$ there exists a best constant $S_{n,p, \lambda}(\mathbb{B}^{n})>0$ such that $$S_{n, p,…

The standard proof of the equivalence of Fourier type on \(\mathbb R^d\) and on the torus \(\mathbb T^d\) is usually stated in terms of an implicit constant which can be expressed in terms of the global minimiser of the functions…

For a Banach space X we define RUMD_n(X) to be the infimum of all c>0 such that (AVE_{\epsilon_k =\pm 1} || \sum_1^n epsilon_k (M_k - M_{k-1} )||_{L_2^X}^2 )^{1/2} <= c || M_n ||_{L_2^X} holds for all Walsh-Paley martingales {M_k}_0^n…

Let $X$ be a given Banach space and let $M$, $N$ be two orthogonal $X$-valued local martingales such that $N$ is weakly differentially subordinate to $M$. The paper contains the proof of the estimate $$ \mathbb E \Psi(N_t) \leq…

Let $X$ be a Banach space and suppose $Y\subseteq X$ is a Banach space compactly embedded into $X$, and $(a_k)$ is a weakly null sequence of functionals in $X^*$. Then there exists a sequence $\{\varepsilon_n\} \searrow 0$ such that…

We show that, given a Banach space $X$, the Lipschitz-free space over $X$, denoted by $\mathcal{F}(X)$, is isomorphic to $(\sum_{n=1}^\infty \mathcal{F}(X))_{\ell_1}$. Some applications are presented, including a non-linear version of…
