In this work we consider dimensional improvements of the logarithmic Sobolev, Talagrand and Brascamp-Lieb inequalities. For this we use optimal transport methods and the Borell-Brascamp-Lieb inequality. These refinements can be written as a…
We establish new sharp asymmetric Poincare inequalities in one-dimension with the computation of optimal constants and characterization of extremizers. Using the one-dimensional theory we develop a comprehensive study on fundamental…
We provide a convenient framework for the study of the well-posedness of a variety of abstract (integro)differential equations in general Banach function spaces. It allows us to extend and complement the known theory on the maximal…
We investigate numerically the optimal constants in Lieb-Thirring inequalities by studying the associated maximization problem. We use a monotonic fixed-point algorithm and a finite element discretization to obtain trial potentials which…
New aspects of spectral fluctuations of (quantum) chaotic and diffusive systems are considered, namely autocorrelations of the spacing between consecutive levels or spacing autocovariances. They can be viewed as a discretized two point…
We study an inhomogeneous Neumann boundary value problem for functions of least gradient on bounded domains in metric spaces that are equipped with a doubling measure and support a Poincar\'e inequality. We show that solutions exist under…
This paper studies the Hardy-type inequalities on the discrete intervals. The first result is the variational formulas of the optimal constants. Using these formulas, one may obtain an approximating procedure and the known basic estimates…
The elastic Neumann--Poincar\'e operator is a boundary integral operator associated with the Lam\'e system of linear elasticity. It is known that if the boundary of a planar domain is smooth enough, it has eigenvalues converging to two…
We prove a certain improved fractional Sobolev-Poincar\'e inequality on John domains; the proof is based on the equivalence of the corresponding weak and strong type inequalities. We also give necessary conditions for the validity of an…
We study two notions of Dirichlet problem associated with BV energy minimizers (also called functions of least gradient) in bounded domains in metric measure spaces whose measure is doubling and supports a $(1,1)$-Poincar\'e inequality.…
In this short note we consider several widely used L^2-orthogonal Helmholtz decompositions for bounded domains in R^3. It is well known that one part of the decompositions is a subspace of the space of functions with zero mean. We refine…
Functional inequalities such as the Poincar\'e and log-Sobolev inequalities quantify convergence to equilibrium in continuous-time Markov chains by linking generator properties to variance and entropy decay. However, many applications,…
A quantitative version of an inequality obtained in \cite[Theorem~2.1]{mathz} is given. More precisely, for normalized $K$ quasiconformal harmonic mappings of the unit disk onto a Jordan domain $\Omega\in C^{1,\mu} $ ($0<\mu\le 1$) we give…
We consider the symmetric FEM-BEM coupling that connects two linear elliptic second order partial differential equations posed in a bounded domain $\Omega$ and its complement, where the exterior problem is restated by an integral equation…
We consider a system of differential equations with nonlinear Steklov boundary conditions, related to the fractional problem $$(-\Delta)^s u_i = f_i(x,u_i) - \beta u_i^p \sum_{j\neq i} a_{ij} u_j^p,$$ where $i = i,\dots, k$, $s\in(0,1)$,…
Poincar\'{e}-Sobolev-type inequalities involving rearrangement-invariant norms on the entire $\mathbb{R}^n$ are provided. Namely, inequalities of the type $\|u-P\|_{Y(\mathbb{R}^n)}\leq C\|\nabla^m u\|_{X(\mathbb{R}^n)}$, where $X$ and $Y$…
We discuss the renormalization of higher-derivative gravity, both without and with matter fields, in terms of two primary coupling constants rather than three. A technique for determining the dependence of the Gauss-Bonnet coupling constant…
We establish inverse and direct theorems on best approximations in quasi-normed Abelian groups through bilateral Bernstein-Jackson inequalities with exact constants. Using integral representations for quasi-norms of functions $f$ in…
On a convex bounded open set, we prove that Poincar\'e-Sobolev constants for functions vanishing at the boundary can be bounded from below in terms of the norm of the distance function in a suitable Lebesgue space. This generalizes a result…
This paper deduces exponential matrix concentration from a Poincar\'e inequality via a short, conceptual argument. Among other examples, this theory applies to matrix-valued functions of a uniformly log-concave random vector. The proof…
