The classical Remez inequality bounds the maximum of the absolute value of a polynomial $P(x)$ of degree $d$ on $[-1,1]$ through the maximum of its absolute value on any subset $Z$ of positive measure in $[-1,1]$. Similarly, in several…

Let $\psi:\mathbb R_+\to\mathbb R_+$ be a non-increasing function. A real number $x$ is said to be $\psi$-Dirichlet improvable if it admits an improvement to Dirichlet's theorem in the following sense: the system $$|qx-p|< \, \psi(t) \ \…

We prove a dimension-free $L^p(\mathbb{R}^d)$, $1<p<\infty$, estimate for the vector of maximal Riesz transforms of odd order in terms of the corresponding Riesz transforms. This implies a dimension-free $L^p(\mathbb{R}^d)$ estimate for the…

Let $\mu$ be a Gaussian measure on some measurable space $\{W=\{w\},{\mathcal{B}}(W)\}$ and let $\nu$ be a measure on the same space which is absolutely continuous with respect to $\nu$. The paper surveys results on the problem of…

We consider constraints on the measure of the support for integrable functions on arbitrary measure spaces. It is shown that this non-convex and discontinuous constraint can be equivalently reformulated by the difference of two convex and…

We give a quick and direct proof of the strong maximum principle on finite dimensional $RCD$ spaces based on the Laplacian comparison of the squared distance.

In 1965, Bollob\'as proved that for a Bollob\'as set-pair system $\{(A_i,B_i)\mid i\in[m]\}$, the maximum value of $\sum_{i=1}^m\binom{|A_i|+|B_i|}{A_i}^{-1}$ is $1$. Heged\"{u}s and Frankl recently extended the concept of Bollob\'as…

For $2\le p<\infty$ we show the lower estimates \[ \|A^{\frac 12}x\|_p \kl c(p)\max\{\pl \|\Gamma(x,x)^{{1/2}}\|_p,\pl \|\Gamma(x^*,x^*)^{{1/2}}\|_p\} \] for the Riesz transform associated to a semigroup $(T_t)$ of completely positive maps…

We study the minimization of the energy integral $I_K(\mu) = \int_{\Omega} \int_{\Omega} K(x,y) d\mu(x) d\mu(y)$ over all Borel probability measures $\mu$, where $(\Omega,\rho)$ is a compact connected metric space and $K:\Omega^2 \to…

The aim of this paper is to present some properties of Choquet maximal Radon probability measures on compact, convex subsets of Hausdorff, locally convex, topological real vector spaces. Theorem 3.12 is the main result of the paper. While…

A symmetric subset of the reals is one that remains invariant under some reflection z --> c-z. We consider, for any 0 < x <= 1, the largest real number D(x) such that every subset of $[0,1]$ with measure greater than x contains a symmetric…

For d nonpolar compact sets K_1,...,K_d in the complex plane, d admissible weights Q_1,...,Q_d, and a positive semidefinite d x d interaction matrix C with no zero column, we define natural discretizations of the associated weighted vector…

The Duffin-Schaeffer conjecture is a central open problem in metric number theory. Let $\psi~\mathbb{N} \mapsto \mathbb{R}$ be a non-negative function, and set $\mathcal{E}_n :=\bigcup \left( \frac{a - \psi(n)}{n},\frac{a+\psi(n)}{n}…

Let $f: B^n \rightarrow {\mathbb R}$ be a $d+1$ times continuously differentiable function on the unit ball $B^n$, with $\max_{z\in B^n} \Vert f(z) \Vert=1$. A well-known fact is that if $f$ vanishes on a set $Z\subset B^n$ with a non-empty…

We consider the setting of two disks in a domain in $\mathbb{R}^2$ which are almost touching and have finite and positive conductivities, giving rise to a divergence form elliptic equation with discontinuous coefficients. We use the maximum…

Let $M$ be a compact $n$-dimensional Riemanian manifold, End($M$) the set of the endomorphisms of $M$ with the usual $\mathcal{C}^0$ topology and $\phi: M\to\mathbb{R}$ continuous. We prove that there exists a dense subset of $\mathcal{A}$…

Building on the author's recent work with Jan Maas and Jan van Neerven, this paper establishes the equivalence of two norms (one using a maximal function, the other a square function) used to define a Hardy space on $\R^{n}$ with the…

In this paper, we present a more complete version of the minimax theorem established in [7]. As a consequence, we get, for instance, the following result: Let $X$ be a compact, not singleton subset of a normed space $(E,\|\cdot\|)$ and let…

We give sufficient conditions on the exponent $p: \mathbb R^d\rightarrow [1,\infty)$ for the boundedness of the non-centered Gaussian maximal function on variable Lebesgue spaces $L^{p(\cdot)}(\mathbb R^d, \gamma_d)$, as well as of the new…

Let $\textrm{Mat}_2(\mathbb{R})$ be the set of $2 \times 2$ matrices with real entries. For any $\varepsilon>0$ and any finitely--supported probability measure $\mu$ on $\textrm{Mat}_2(\mathbb{R})$, we prove that either \[ T(\mu) = \sum_{X,…
