We prove that the round metric on the sphere has the largest first eigenvalue of the Dirac operator among all metrics that are larger than it. As a corollary, this gives an alternative proof of an extremality result for scalar curvature due…

We obtain sharp embeddings from the Sobolev space $W^{k,2}_0(-1,1)$ into the space $L^1(-1,1)$ and determine the extremal functions. This improves on a previous estimate of the sharp constants of these embeddings due to Kalyabin.

We survey various aspects of infinite extremal graph theory and prove several new results. The lead role play the parameters connectivity and degree. This includes the end degree. Many open problems are suggested.

In this article we introduce Triebel--Lizorkin spaces with variable smoothness and integrability. Our new scale covers spaces with variable exponent as well as spaces of variable smoothness that have been studied in recent years.…

In this article, we prove that all global, nonendpoint Fourier restriction inequalities for the paraboloid in $\mathbb R^{1+d}$ have extremizers and that $L^p$-normalized extremizing sequences are precompact modulo symmetries. This result…

In the paper we generalize the notion of problem (P) introduced by Poletsky. We introduce the notion of (P_m) extremals. For example, geodesics are (P_1) extremals. Using obtained results we present a description of (P_m) extremals in…

The paper develops a continiuty method for solutions of the Abreu equation, which include extremal metrics on toric surfaces. Results are obtained, assuming a hypothesis (the "M-condition") on the solutions.

In this paper we classify all positive extremal functions to a sharp weighted Sobolev inequality on the upper half space, which involves divergent operators with degeneracy on the boundary. As an application of the results, we can derive a…

We prove that an extremal metric on a polarised smooth complex projective variety exists if it is $\mathbb{G}$-uniformly $K$-stable relative to the extremal torus over models, extending a result due to Chi Li for constant scalar curvature…

We find universal spaces for Alexandroff and finite spaces and explore some of its topological properties as well as their description as inverse limits of finite spaces and Alexandroff extensions. They can be used as a natural environment…

We prove that separable extensions of noetherian rings and finite \'etale morphisms of noetherian schemes give rise to separable extensions of singularity categories.

Trace theorems are proved for non-isotropic Sobolev and $L^p$-Lipschitz spaces defined by vector fields satisfying H\"ormander's bracket condition of order 2. It is shown that the loss of regularity by traces is the same as in the classical…

We consider the set of extremal points of the generalized unit ball induced by gradient total variation seminorms for vector-valued functions on bounded Euclidean domains. These are central to the understanding of sparse solutions and…

A first order trace formula is obtained for a higher-order differential operator on a segment in the case where the perturbation is an operator of multiplication by a finite complex-valued measure. For the operators of even order $n\ge4$ a…

We determine the explicit value of the optimal constant in the trace inequality for functions of bounded variations in the case the domain has a particular class of singularities.

We obtain extremal majorants and minorants of exponential type for a class of even functions on $\R$ which includes $\log |x|$ and $|x|^\alpha$, where $-1 < \alpha < 1$. We also give periodic versions of these results in which the majorants…
