Recently Ohlin lemma on convex stochastic ordering was used to obtain some inequalities of Hermite-Hadamard type. Continuing this idea, we use Levin-Ste\v{c}kin result to determine all inequalities of the forms:…
Two discrete N-level alternatives to the popular imaginary cubic oscillator are proposed and studied. In a certain domain ${\cal D}$ of parameters $a$ and $z$ of the model, the spectrum of energies is shown real (i.e., potentially,…
Drawing on results of Derdzi\'nski's from the 80's, we classify conformally K\"ahler, $U(2)$-invariant, Einstein metrics on the total space of $\mathcal{O}(-m)$, for all $m \in \mathbb{N}$. This yields infinitely many $1$-parameter families…
This work introduces two new notions of dimension, namely the unimodular Minkowski and Hausdorff dimensions, which are inspired from the classical analogous notions. These dimensions are defined for unimodular discrete spaces, introduced in…
We give some estimates of the remainder terms for several conformally-invariant Sobolev-type inequalities on the Heisenberg group, in analogy with the Euclidean case. By considering the variation of associated functionals, we give a…
Let $\delta(\Pc) = (\delta_0, \delta_1,..., \delta_d)$ be the $\delta$-vector of an integral polytope $\Pc \subset \RR^N$ of dimension $d$. Following the previous work of characterizing the $\delta$-vectors with $\sum_{i=0}^d \delta_i \leq…
In a seminal paper "Volumen und Oberfl\"ache" (1903), Minkowski introduced the basic notion of mixed volumes and the corresponding inequalities that lie at the heart of convex geometry. The fundamental importance of characterizing the…
We investigate four different types of representations of deformed canonical variables leading to generalized versions of Heisenberg's uncertainty relations resulting from noncommutative spacetime structures. We demonstrate explicitly how…
We derive a number of inequalities involving L\^e numbers of non-isolated hypersurface singularities. In particular, we derive L\^e-Iomdine formulas with inequalities and use these, together with Teissier's Minkowski inequalities for…
We present a new approach to the Marcinkiewicz interpolation inequality for the distribution function of the Hilbert transform, and prove an "abstract" version of this inequality. The approach uses "logarithmic determinants" and new…
The weighted Euclidean norm $\|x\|_w$ of a vector $x\in \mathbb{R}^d$ with weights $w\in \mathbb{R}^d$ is the Euclidean norm where the contribution of each dimension is scaled by a given weight. Approaches to dimensionality reduction that…
Using linear projections one gets new inequalities for the successive minima of the lattice of sections of an hermitian line bundle on an arithmetic surface.
The infrared structure of quantum gravity is explored by solving a lattice version of the Wheeler-DeWitt equations. In the present paper only the case of 2+1 dimensions is considered. The nature of the wavefunction solutions is such that a…
Given a continuous function from Euclidean space to the real line, we analyze (under some natural assumption on the function), the set of values it takes on translates of lattices. Our results are of the flavor: For almost any translate,…
A theorem of W. Derrick ensures that the volume of any Riemannian cube $([0,1]^n,g)$ is bounded below by the product of the distances between opposite codimension-1 faces. In this paper, we establish a discrete analog of Derrick's…
A classical result from 1861 due to Hermite says that every separable equation of degree 5 can be transformed into an equation of the form x^5 + b x^3 + c x + d = 0. Later this was generalized to equations of degree 6 by Joubert. We show…
We study the behaviour of the smallest possible constants $d_n$ and $c_n$ in Hardy's inequalities $$ \sum_{k=1}^{n}\Big(\frac{1}{k}\sum_{j=1}^{k}a_j\Big)^2\leq d_n\,\sum_{k=1}^{n}a_k^2, \qquad (a_1,\ldots,a_n) \in \mathbb{R}^n $$ and $$…
We investigate the Ehrhart polynomial for the class of 0-symmetric convex lattice polytopes in Euclidean $n$-space $\mathbb{R}^n$. It turns out that the roots of the Ehrhart polynomial and Minkowski's successive minima are closely related…
Hemi-implicative semilattices (lattices), originally defined under the name of weak implicative semilattices (lattices), were introduced by the second author of the present paper. A hemi-implicative semilattice is an algebra…
We study the dimensional Brunn-Minkowski inequality for even log-concave probability measures $\mu$ on $\mathbb{R}^n$ via an analytic approach based on diffusion operators and gradient estimates. Our main result asserts that for every pair…
