We introduce a symmetrization technique that allows us to translate a problem of controlling the deviation of some functionals on a product space from their mean into a problem of controlling the deviation between two independent copies of…

We show in all dimensions that minimizers of variational problems with a convexity constraint, which arise from the Rochet-Chon\'e model with a quadratic cost in the monopolist's problem in economics, can be approximated in the uniform norm…

The projector onto the Minkowski sum of closed convex sets is generally not equal to the sum of individual projectors. In this work, we provide a complete answer to the question of characterizing the instances where such an equality holds.…

In [G. Bianchi, R. J. Gardner and P. Gronchi, Symmetrization in Geometry, Adv. Math., vol. 306 (2017), 51-88], a systematic study of symmetrization operators on convex sets and their properties is conducted. In the end of their article, the…

We investigate properties of measures in infinite dimensional spaces in terms of Poincar\'e inequalities. A Poincar\'e inequality states that the $L^2$ variance of an admissible function is controlled by the homogeneous $H^1$ norm. In the…

We prove a log-Sobolev inequality for a certain class of log-concave measures in high dimension. These are the probability measures supported on the unit cube in R^n whose density takes the form exp(-H) where the function H is assumed to be…

We prove a relative isoperimetric inequality in the plane, when the perimeter is defined with respect to a convex, positively homogeneous function of degree one, and characterize the minimizers.

On a metric measure space satisfying the doubling property, we establish several optimal characterizations of Besov and Triebel-Lizorkin spaces, including a pointwise characterization. Moreover, we discuss their (non)triviality under a…

In this paper, a new approach of defining Steiner symmetrization of coercive convex functions is proposed and some fundamental properties of the new Steiner symmetrization are proved. Further, using the new Steiner symmetrization, we give a…

We prove an isoperimetric inequality for the uniform measure on a uniformly convex body and for a class of uniformly log-concave measures (that we introduce). These inequalities imply (up to universal constants) the log-Sobolev inequalities…

This paper deals with four symmetrizations of a convex set $C$: the intersection, the harmonic and the arithmetic mean, and the convex hull of $C$ and $-C$. A well-known result of Firey shows that those means build up a subset-chain in the…

Let \(\mu\) be a finite Borel measure on \((-\pi,\pi)\). Consider the one-dimensional Poisson equation \(-u''=\mu\), where equality holds in the sense of distributions, with Dirichlet boundary conditions \(u(\pm\pi)=0\). In this paper, we…

A weighted relative isoperimetric inequality in convex cones is obtained via the Monge-Ampere equation. The method improves several inequalities in the literature, e.g. constants in a theorem of Cabre--Ros--Oton--Serra. Applications are…

Using a method of Korobenko, Maldonado and Rios we show a new characterization of doubling metric-measure spaces supporting Poincar\'e inequalities without assuming a priori that the measure is doubling.

It is well known that isoperimetric inequalities imply in a very general measure-metric-space setting appropriate concentration inequalities. The former bound the boundary measure of sets as a function of their measure, whereas the latter…
