Let $f(x)=x^TAx+2a^Tx+c$ and $h(x)=x^TBx+2b^Tx+d$ be two quadratic functions having symmetric matrices $A$ and $B$. The S-lemma with equality asks when the unsolvability of the system $f(x)<0, h(x)=0$ implies the existence of a real number…

We study the mean-value harmonic functions on open subsets of $\mathbb{R}^n$ equipped with weighted Lebesgue measures and norm induced metrics. Our main result is a necessary condition saying that all such functions solve a certain…
The $k$-Hessian operator $\sigma_k$ is the $k$-th elementary symmetric function of the eigenvalues of the Hessian. It is known that the $k$-Hessian equation $\sigma_k(D^2u)=f$ with Dirichlet boundary condition $u=0$ is variational; indeed,…

We establish analogs of Cheeger's inequality for probability measures with heavy tails. As one of the principal applications, suppose $\lambda > 3$ and define the (Pareto) probability measure $\mu_{\lambda}$ on $[1,\infty)$ by…
We study the dimensional Brunn-Minkowski inequality for even log-concave probability measures $\mu$ on $\mathbb{R}^n$ via an analytic approach based on diffusion operators and gradient estimates. Our main result asserts that for every pair…
Suppose $0 < \alpha \leq n$, $H: \Bbb R^n \to [0,1]$ is a Lebesgue measurable function, and $A_\alpha(H)$ is the infimum of all numbers $C$ for which the inequality $\int_B H(x) dx \leq C R^\alpha$ holds for all balls $B \subset \Bbb R^n$…
The Hermite-Hadamard inequality states that the average value of a convex function on an interval is bounded from above by the average value of the function at the endpoints of the interval. We provide a generalization to higher dimensions:…
In this paper we present some new results regarding the solvability of nonlinear Hammerstein integral equations in a special cone of continuous functions. The proofs are based on a certain fixed point theorem of Leggett and Williams type.…
Let $(P_t)$ be the transition semigroup of a L\'evy process $L$ taking values in a Hilbert space $H$. Let $\nu$ be the L\'evy measure of $L$. It is shown that for any bounded and measurable function $f$, $$ \int_H\left\vert…
The Trudinger-Moser inequality states that for functions $u \in H_0^{1,n}(\Omega)$ ($\Omega \subset \mathbb R^n$ a bounded domain) with $\int_\Omega |\nabla u|^ndx \le 1$ one has $\int_\Omega (e^{\alpha_n|u|^{\frac n{n-1}}}-1)dx \le c…
Parameter-elliptic boundary-value problems are investigated on the extended Sobolev scale. This scale consists of all Hilbert spaces that are interpolation spaces with respect to the Hilbert Sobolev scale. The latter are the H\"ormander…

We formulate a plausible conjecture for the optimal Ehrhard-type inequality for convex symmetric sets with respect to the Gaussian measure. Namely, letting $J_{k-1}(s)=\int^s_0 t^{k-1} e^{-\frac{t^2}{2}}dt$ and $c_{k-1}=J_{k-1}(+\infty)$,…
