We show sharpened forms of the concentration of measure phenomenon typically centered at stochastic expansions of order $d-1$ for any $d \in \mathbb{N}$. Here we focus on differentiable functions on the Euclidean space in presence of a…

We prove a Payne-Weinberger type inequality for the $p$-Laplacian Neumann eigenvalues ($p\ge 2$). The inequality provides the sharp upper bound on convex domains, in terms of the diameter alone, of the best constants in Poincar\'e…

We resolve a question of Carrapatoso et al. on Gaussian optimality for the sharp constant in Poincar\'e-Korn inequalities, under a moment constraint. We also prove stability, showing that measures with near-optimal constant are…

In $1977$, G. Bennett proved, by means of non-deterministic methods, an inequality which plays a fundamental role in a series of optimization problems. More precisely, Bennett's inequality shows that, for $p_{1},p_{2} \in\lbrack1,\infty]$…

If $(M,g)$ is a compact Riemannian manifold of dimension $n\ge 2$ we give necessary and sufficient conditions for improved $L^p(M)$-norms of eigenfunctions for all $2<p\ne p_c=\tfrac{2(n+1)}{n-1}$, the critical exponent. Since improved…

In this paper, we establish a sharp remainder formula for the Poincar\'e inequality for Baouendi-Grushin vector fields in the setting of $L^{p}$ for complex-valued functions. In special cases, we recover previously known results.…

By using Lyapunov conditions, weak Poincar\'e inequalities are established for some probability measures on a manifold $(M,g)$. These results are further applied to the convolution of two probability measures on $\R^d$. Along with explicit…

In this paper we study maximal and square functions associated with bilinear Bochner-Riesz means at the critical index. In particular, we prove that they satisfy weighted estimates from $L^{p_1}(w_1)\times L^{p_2}(w_2)\rightarrow L^p(v_w)$…

In this paper we produce new, optimal, regularity results for the solutions to $p$-Poisson equations. We argue through a delicate approximation method, under a smallness regime for the exponent $p$, that imports information from a limiting…

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 $[-1,1]$. It was shown in…

In a complete metric space that is equipped with a doubling measure and supports a Poincar\'e inequality, we study strict subsets, i.e. sets whose variational capacity with respect to a larger reference set is finite, in the case $p=1$.…

We study compactness and boundedness of embeddings from Sobolev type spaces on metric spaces into $L^q$ spaces with respect to another measure. The considered Sobolev spaces can be of fractional order and some statements allow also…

We consider two notions of functions of bounded variation in complete metric measure spaces, one due to Martio and the other due to Miranda~Jr. We show that these two notions coincide, if the measure is doubling and supports a…

We firstly describe a maximal inequality for dual Sobolev spaces W^{-1,p}. This one corresponds to a "Sobolev version" of usual properties of the Hardy-Littlewood maximal operator in Lebesgue spaces. Even in the euclidean space, this one…

Let $\left( p,q\right) \mapsto \beta \left( p,q\right) $ be a function defined on $\mathbb{R}^{2}$. We determine the best or better $p,q$ such that the inequality% \begin{equation*} \left( \frac{\sin x}{x}\right) ^{p}<\left( >\right)…

In this paper we establish necessary and sufficient conditions for weighted Orlicz-Poincar\'e inequalities in dimension one. Our theorems generalize the main results of Chua and Wheeden, who established necessary and sufficient conditions…

We consider the maximal p-norm associated with a completely positive map and the question of its multiplicativity under tensor products. We give a condition under which this multiplicativity holds when p = 2, and we describe some maps which…

This paper studies a new maximal operator introduced by Hyt\"onen, McIntosh and Portal in 2008 for functions taking values in a Banach space. The L^p-boundedness of this operator depends on the range space; certain requirements on type and…

Consider an ergodic stationary random field $A$ on the ambient space $\mathbb R^d$. In a companion article, we introduced the notion of multiscale (first-order) functional inequalities, which extend standard functional inequalities like…

We show how to use Lyapunov functions to obtain functional inequalities which are stronger than Poincar\'e inequality (for instance logarithmic Sobolev or $F$-Sobolev). The case of Poincar\'e and weak Poincar\'e inequalities was studied in…
