In this article, we prove the existence of extremal functions in higher-order affine Sobolev inequalities. Proofs rely on concentration-compactness methods in spaces of integer or fractional regularity. The tools we use, available in spaces…

The circular and Jacobi ensembles of random matrices have their eigenvalue support on the unit circle of the complex plane and the interval $(0,1)$ of the real line respectively. The averaged value of the modulus of the corresponding…

In this paper we give the complete characterization of the boundedness of the generalized fractional maximal operator $$ M_{\phi,\Lambda^{\alpha}(b)}f(x) : = \sup_{Q \ni x} \frac{\|f \chi_Q\|_{\Lambda^{\alpha}(b)}}{\phi (|Q|)} \qquad (x \in…

Let $N$ be a finite set of cardinality $n$, and $a\in N$. A submodular function $f$ on $N$ with $f(a)=1$ is defined to be $a$-reduced if, for any decomposition $f=g+h$ into submodular functions where $h$ does not depend on $a$, it follows…

Let $A$ be a finite-dimensional local commutative algebra over $R$, $\dim_RA=n$. In this work we consider compact manifolds over $A$, and prove that the real part of an $A$-differentiable function is constant. Also we find estimates for the…

For a bounded domain $\Omega\subset \mathbb{R}^n$ and $p>n$, Morrey's inequality implies that there is $c>0$ such that $$ c\|u\|^p_{\infty}\le \int_\Omega|Du|^pdx $$ for each $u$ belonging to the Sobolev space $W^{1,p}_0(\Omega)$. We show…

We study the question of the existence of a dual extremal function for a bounded matrix function on the unit circle in connection with the problem of approximation by analytic matrix functions. We characterize the class of matrix functions,…

We prove a Schwarz-Jack lemma for holomorphic functions on the unit disk with the property that their maximum modulus on each circle about the origin is attained at a point on the positive real axis. With the help of this result, we…

In this note, we prove that, among functions $f$ supported on a Hamming Sphere in $\mathbb{F}_2^n$ with fixed $\ell^2$ norm, the additive energy is maximised when $f$ is constant. This answers a question asked by Kirshner and Samorodnitsky.

Let $M$ be a compact manifold of dimension $n$. In this paper, we introduce the {\em Mass Function} $a \geq 0 \mapsto \xp{M}{a}$ (resp. $a \geq 0 \mapsto \xm{M}{a}$) which is defined as the supremum (resp. infimum) of the masses of all…

Jacobi's results on the computation of the order and of the normal forms of a differential system are translated in the formalism of differential algebra. In the quasi-regular case, we give complete proofs according to Jacobi's arguments.…

We consider a family of functionals $J$ to be maximized over the planar convex sets $K$ for which the perimeter and Steiner point have been fixed. Assuming that $J$ is the integral of a quadratic expression in the support function $h$, we…

We study the following question: Given an open set $\Omega$, symmetric about 0, and a continuous, integrable, positive definite function $f$, supported in $\Omega$ and with $f(0)=1$, how large can $\int f$ be? This problem has been studied…

We study the extremal function $S^k_d(n)$, defined as the maximum number of regular $(k-1)$-simplices spanned by $n$ points in $\mathbb{R}^d$. For any fixed $d\geq2k\geq6$, we determine the asymptotic behavior of $S^k_d(n)$ up to a…

We generalize a number of works on the zeros of certain level 1 modular forms to a class of weakly holomorphic modular functions whose $q$-expansions satisfy \[ f_k(A, \tau) \colon = q^{-k}(1+a(1)q+a(2)q^2+...) + O(q),\] where $a(n)$ are…
