We show in a quantitative way that any odd character $\chi$ modulo $q$ of fixed order $g \geq 2$ satisfies the property that if the P\'{o}lya-Vinogradov inequality for $\chi$ can be improved to $$\max_{1 \leq t \leq q} \left|\sum_{n \leq t}…
We continue to investigate some classes of Szeg\"o type polynomials in several variables. We focus on asymptotic properties of these polynomials and we extend several classical results of G. Szeg\"o to this setting.
The paper deals with natural generalizations of the Hardy-Sobolev-Maz'ya inequality and some related questions, such as the optimality and stability of such inequalities, the existence of minimizers of the associated variational problem,…
We provide a sufficient condition for a measure on the real line to satisfy a modified logarithmic Sobolev inequality, thus extending the criterion of Bobkov and G\"{o}tze. Under mild assumptions the condition is also necessary.…
In this note, we present new properties for a sequence arising in some refinements of Carleman's inequality. Our results extend some results of Yang [Approximations for constant e and their applications J. Math. Anal. Appl. 262 (2001)…
A monotonicity property of Harnack inequality is proved for positive invariant harmonic functions in the unit ball.
The aim of this short note is to give an alternative proof, which applies to functions of bounded variation in arbitrary domains, of an inequality by Maz'ya that improves Friedrichs inequality. A remarkable feature of such a proof is that…
We propose a notion of operator monotonicity for functions of several variables, which extends the well known notion of operator monotonicity for functions of only one variable. The notion is chosen such that a fundamental relationship…
We show that if $p_-\geq 2$, then a sufficient condition for the density of smooth functions with compact support, in the variable exponent Sobolev space $W^{1,p(\cdot)}(\mathbb R^n)$, is that the Riesz potentials of compactly supported…
This paper starts by introducing results from geometric measure theory to prove symmetric decreasing rearrangement inequalities on $\mathbb{R}^n$, which give multiple proofs of the isoperimetric and P\'{o}lya-Szeg\H{o} inequalities. Then we…
We describe some sufficient conditions, under which smooth and compactly supported functions are or are not dense in the fractional Sobolev space $W^{s,p}(\Omega)$ for an open, bounded set $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^{d}$. The density property…
We consider a stochastic parabolic partial differential equation with Dirichlet boundary conditions, multiplicative stochastic noise, and a monotone parabolic operator A. The growth and coercivity of A is controlled by a general N-function…
In this paper we prove the Polya-Inequality for integrands depending on a function u and its gradient. We also establish cases of equality in this symmetrization inequality.
Let $A, B$ be subsets of $(\mathbb{Z}/p^r\mathbb{Z})^2$. In this note, we provide conditions on the densities of $A$ and $B$ such that $|gA-B|\gg p^{2r}$ for a positive proportion of $g\in SO_2(\mathbb{Z}/p^r\mathbb{Z})$. The conditions are…
Motivated by a long-standing conjecture of Polya and Szeg\"o about the Newtonian capacity of convex bodies, we discuss the role of concavity inequalities in shape optimization, and we provide several counterexamples to the…
Our studies are directed to the existence of weak solutions to a parabolic problem containing a multi-valued term. The problem is formulated in the language of maximal monotone graphs. We assume that the growth and coercivity conditions of…
The classical Szeg\H{o}-Verblunsky theorem relates integrability of the logarithm of the absolutely continuous part of a probability measure on the circle to square summability of the sequence of recurrence coefficients for the orthogonal…
The well-known Kolmogorov compactness criterion is extended to the case of variable exponent Lebesgue spaces $L^{p(\cdot)}({\Omega})$, where $\Omega$ is a bounded open set in $\mathbb R^n$ and $p(\cdot)$ satisfies some "standard"…
We prove a~general form of Chebyshev type inequality for generalized upper Sugeno integral in the form of necessary and sufficient condition. A key role in our considerations is played by the~class of $m$-positively dependent functions…
In the paper, we present a monotonicity result of a function involving the gamma function and the logarithmic function, refine a double inequality for the gamma function, and improve some known results for bounding the gamma function.
