We investigate the validity of the optimal higher-order Sobolev inequality $H_k^2(M^n)\hookrightarrow L^{\frac{2n}{n-2k}}(M^n)$ on a closed Riemannian manifold when the remainder term is the $L^2-$norm. Unlike the case $k=1$, the optimal…

We establish fine bounds for best constants of the fractional subcritical Sobolev embeddings \begin{align*} W_{0}^{s,p}\left(\Omega\right)\hookrightarrow L^{q}\left(\Omega\right), \end{align*} where $N\geq1$, $0<s<1$, $p=1,2$, $1\leq…

It is well known that if a random vector satisfies a log-Sobolev inequality, all of its marginals have subgaussian tails. In the spirit of the KLS conjecture, we investigate whether this implication can be reversed under a log-concavity…

In this expository paper, we consider the Hardy-Schr\"odinger operator $-\Delta -\gamma/|x|^2$ on a smooth domain \Omega of R^n with 0\in\bar{\Omega}, and describe how the location of the singularity 0, be it in the interior of \Omega or on…
