The aim of this paper is to investigate extremum problems with pay-off being the total variational distance metric defined on the space of probability measures, subject to linear functional constraints on the space of probability measures,…
By using a quantum probabilistic approach we obtain a description of the extreme points of the convex set of all joint probability distributions on the product of two standard Borel spaces with fixed marginal distributions.
We prove an analogue of the portmanteau theorem on weak convergence of probability measures allowing measures which are unbounded on an underlying metric space but finite on the complement of any Borel neighbourhood of a fixed element.
In this paper, we investigate the extremal functions for anisotropic Trudinger-Moser inequalities. Our method uses convex symmetrization, the continuity of the supremum function, together with the relation between the supremums of the…
Extremal functions are exhibited in Poincar\'e trace inequalities for functions of bounded variation in the unit ball ${\mathbb B}^n$ of the $n$-dimensional Euclidean space ${\mathbb R}^n$. Trial functions are subject to either a vanishing…

In this paper, using blow-up analysis, we prove a singular Hardy-Morser-Trudinger inequality, and find its extremal functions. Our results extend those of Wang-Ye (Adv. Math. 2012), Yang-Zhu ( Ann. Glob. Anal. Geom. 2016), Csat\'{o}- Roy…
Properties of a maximal function for vector-valued martingales were studied by the author in an earlier paper. Restricting here to the dyadic setting, we prove the equivalence between (weighted) L^p inequalities and weak type estimates, and…
On spaces of finite signed Borel measures on a metric space one has introduced the Fortet-Mourier and Dudley norms, by embedding the measures into the dual space of the Banach space of bounded Lipschitz functions, equipped with different --…
Sharp Moser-Trudinger type inequalities and their extremal functions play an important role in studying nonlinear PDEs and geometry. We establish a new sharp Moser-Trudinger type inequality in the upper half space in two dimensions and…
