When studying the weighted Hardy-Rellich inequality in $L^2$ with the full gradient replaced by the radial derivative the best constant becomes trivially larger or equal than in the first situation. Our contribution is to determine the new…
The goal of this note is to show that some convolution type inequalities from Harmonic Analysis and Information Theory, such as Young's convolution inequality (with sharp constant), Nelson's hypercontractivity of the Hermite semi-group or…
Although the Hardy inequality corresponding to one quadratic singularity, with optimal constant, does not admit any extremal function, it is well known that such a potential can be improved, in the sense that a positive term can be added to…
It is known that many classical inequalities linked to convolutions can be obtained by looking at the monotonicity in time of convolutions of powers of solutions to the heat equation, provided that both the exponents and the coefficients of…
We present the best constant and the existence of extremal functions for an Improved Hardy-Sobolev inequality. We prove that, under a proper transformation, this inequality is equivalent to the Sobolev inequality in $\mathbb{R}^N$. We also…
This note is concerned with the Bianchi-Egnell inequality, which quantifies the stability of the Sobolev inequality, and its generalization to fractional exponents $s \in (0, \frac{d}{2})$. We prove that in dimension $d \geq 2$ the best…
In this paper, we establish discrete Hardy-Rellich inequalities on $\mathbb{N}$ with $\Delta^\frac{\ell}{2}$ and optimal constants, for any $\ell \geq 1$. As far as we are aware, these sharp inequalities are new for $\ell \geq 3$. Our…
In this paper we prove sharp Lieb-Thirring (LT) inequalities for the family of shifted Coulomb Hamiltonians. More precisely, we prove the classical LT inequalities with the semi-classical constant for this family of operators in any…
In this paper, we will use a suitable tranform to investigate the sharp constants and optimizers for the following Caffarelli-Kohn-Nirenberg inequalities for a wide range of parameters $(r,p,q,s,\mu,\sigma)$ and $0\leq a\leq1$:…
We study maximum-entropy inference for finite-dimensional quantum states under linear moment constraints. Given expectation values of finitely many observables, the feasible set of states is convex but typically non-unique. The…
We study the Hardy inequality when the singularity is placed on the boundary of a bounded domain in $\mathbb{R}^n$ that satisfies both an interior and exterior ball condition at the singularity. We obtain the sharp Hardy constant $n^2/4$ in…
The Markov-Bernstein type inequalities between the norms of functions and of their derivatives are analysed for complex exponential polynomials. We establish a relation between the sharp constants in those inequalities and the stability…
The Brunn-Minkowski inequality, applicable to bounded measurable sets $A$ and $B$ in $\mathbb{R}^d$, states that $|A+B|^{1/d} \geq |A|^{1/d}+|B|^{1/d}$. Equality is achieved if and only if $A$ and $B$ are convex and homothetic sets in…
The Hardy--Littlewood inequalities for multilinear forms on sequence spaces state that for all positive integers $m,n\geq2$ and all $m$-linear forms $T:\ell_{p_{1}}^{n}\times\cdots\times\ell_{p_{m}}^{n}\rightarrow\mathbb{K}$…
For any $K>2$ and the multiplicative cyclic group $\Omega_K$ of order $K$, consider any function $f:\Omega_K^n\to\mathbf{C}$ and its Fourier expansion $f(z)=\sum_{\alpha\in\{0,1,\ldots,K-1\}^n}a_\alpha z^\alpha$, with $d:=\text{deg}(f)$…
Log-Sobolev inequalities (LSIs) upper-bound entropy via a multiple of the Dirichlet form (i.e. norm of a gradient). In this paper we prove a family of entropy-energy inequalities for the binary hypercube which provide a non-linear…

We establish a sharp Adams-type inequality in higher-order function spaces with singular weights on $\mathbb{R}^n$. A sharp singular concentration-compactness principle, improving Lions' result, is also proved. The study distinguishes…
We study existence of maximizer for the Trudinger-Moser inequality with general nonlinearity of the critical growth on $R^2$, as well as on the disk. We derive a very sharp threshold nonlinearity between the existence and the non-existence…
We study the $P_1$ finite element approximation of the best constant in the classical Hardy inequality over bounded domains containing the origin in $\mathbb{R}^N$, for $N \geq 3$. Despite the fact that this constant is not attained in the…
