We study generalized Poincar\'e inequalities. We prove that if a function satisfies a suitable inequality of Poincar\'e type, then the Hardy-Littlewood maximal function also obeys a meaningful estimate of similar form. As a by-product, we…

It is established in [6, 14, 23] that any closed Einstein manifold with two-nonnegative curvature operator of the second kind is either flat or a round sphere. In this paper, we refine this result by relaxing the curvature condition to a…

Given a bounded convex open set $\Omega\subseteq \mathbb R^N$, we prove that the Poincar\'e-Sobolev constants $\lambda_{p,q}(\Omega)$ can be bounded from below by the $p$-power of the ratio between the perimeter of $\Omega$ and a suitable…

In a doubling metric measure space $(X,\rho,\mu)$ supporting a Poincar\'e inequality, we give a new characterisation of first-order Sobolev spaces by mean oscillations, and extend previous characterisations of constant functions in terms of…

For closed connected Riemannian spin manifolds an upper estimate of the smallest eigenvalue of the Dirac operator in terms of the hyperspherical radius is proved. When combined with known lower Dirac eigenvalue estimates, this has a number…

In this article, we first show that for all compact Riemannian manifolds with non-empty smooth boundary and dimension at least 3, there exists a metric, pointwise conformal to the original metric, with constant scalar curvature in the…

The purpose is to study the CR-manifold with a contact structure conformal to the Heisenberg group. In our previous work \cite{WY}, we have proved that if the $Q'$-curvature is nonnegative, and the integral of $Q'$-curvature is below the…

For any convex set $\Omega \subset {\mathbb R} ^N$, we provide a lower bound for the inverse of the Poincar\'e constant in $W ^ {1, 1}(\Omega)$: it refines an inequality in terms of the diameter due to Acosta-Duran, via the addition of an…

Let $\mathcal{E}$ be an asymptotically Euclidean end in an otherwise arbitrary complete and connected Riemannian spin manifold $(M,g)$. We show that if $\mathcal{E}$ has negative ADM-mass, then there exists a constant $R > 0$, depending…

We prove that an integral Cauchy-Riemann inequality holds for any pair of smooth functions $(f,h)$ on the 2-sphere $\mathbb{S}^2$, and equality holds iff $f$ and $h$ are related $\lambda_1$-eigenfunctions. We extend such inequality to…

The classic Poincare inequality bounds the $L^q$-norm of a function $f$ in a bounded domain $\Omega \subset \R^n$ in terms of some $L^p$-norm of its gradient in $\Omega$. We generalize this in two ways: In the first generalization we remove…

Sharp comparison theorems are derived for all eigenvalues of the (weighted) Laplacian, for various classes of weighted-manifolds (i.e. Riemannian manifolds endowed with a smooth positive density). Examples include Euclidean space endowed…

We consider functions $f: \mathbb{Z} \to \mathbb{R}$ and kernels $u: \{-n, \cdots, n\} \to \mathbb{R}$ normalized by $\sum_{\ell = -n}^{n} u(\ell) = 1$, making the convolution $u \ast f$ a "smoother" local average of $f$. We identify which…

The paper provides two versions of nonlocal Poincar\'e-type inequalities for integral operators with a convolution-type structure and functions satisfying a zero-Dirichlet like condition. The inequalities extend existing results to a large…

We show that the Sobolev embedding is compact on punctured manifolds with conical singularities. On the other hand, we find the Sobolev inequality does not hold on punctured manifolds with Poincar\'{e} like metric, on which one has…

After analyzing renormalization schemes on a Poincar\'e-Einstein manifold, we study the renormalized integrals of scalar Riemannian invariants. The behavior of the renormalized volume is well-known, and we show any scalar Riemannian…

A geometric version of the Poincar\'e Lemma is established for the topological vector space of differential chains. In particular, every differential k-cycle with compact support in a contractible open subset U of a smooth n-manifold M is…

The classical Poincar\'e estimate establishes closedness of the range of the gradient in unweighted $L^2(\Omega)$-spaces as long as $\Omega\subseteq\mathbb{R}^3$ is contained in a slab, that is, $\Omega$ is bounded in one direction. Here,…

We prove a Poincare lemma for a set of r smooth functions on a 2n-dimensional smooth manifold satisfying a commutation relation determined by r singular vector fields associated to a Cartan subalgebra of $\frak{sp}(2r,\mathbb R)$. This…

We generalize the classical Hardy and Faber-Krahn inequalities to arbitrary functions on a convex body $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^n$, not necessarily vanishing on the boundary $\partial \Omega$. This reduces the study of the Neumann…
