New null Lagrangians and gauge functions are derived and they are called nonstandard because their forms are different than those previously found. The invariance of the action is used to make the Lagrangians and gauge functions exact. The…
We prove some noncommutative analogues of a theorem by Plotkin and Rudin about isometries between subspaces of Lp-spaces. Let 0<p<\infty, p not an even integer. The main result of this paper states that in the category of unital subspaces…
We establish new measures of linear independence of logarithms on commutative algebraic groups in the so-called \emph{rational case}. More precisely, let k be a number field and v_{0} be an arbitrary place of k. Let G be a commutative…
We develop a new, systematic approach towards studying the integrability of the ordinary Calogero-Moser-Sutherland models as well as the elliptic Calogero models associated with arbitrary (semi-)simple Lie algebras and with symmetric pairs…
We prove a sharp isoperimetric inequality for the harmonic mean of the first $m-1$ nonzero Neumann eigenvalues for bounded Lipschitz domains symmetric about the origin in Gauss space. Our result generalizes the Szeg\"o-Weinberger type…
Z.E. Musielak has reported in 2008 J. Phys. A: Math. Theor. {\bf 41} 055205 methods to obtain standard and non-standard Lagrangians and identify classes of equations of motion that admit a Lagrangian description. In this comment we show how…
The lower invariance under a given arbitrary group of diffeomorphisms extends the notion of quasiconvexity. The non-commutativity of the group operation (the function composition) modifies the classical equivalence between lower…
The Ehrhard-Borell inequality is a far-reaching refinement of the classical Brunn-Minkowski inequality that captures the sharp convexity and isoperimetric properties of Gaussian measures. Unlike in the classical Brunn-Minkowski theory, the…
This manuscript provides a characterisation of the equivalence class of classical smooth Lagrangian densities that involve terms depending on two distinct points of the underlying Euclidean base space of the theory. Theories of this type…
A theorem of Dorronsoro from 1985 quantifies the fact that a Lipschitz function $f \colon \mathbb{R}^{n} \to \mathbb{R}$ can be approximated by affine functions almost everywhere, and at sufficiently small scales. This paper contains a new,…
We are interested in the Caffarelli-Kohn-Nirenberg inequality (CKN in short), introduced by these authors in 1984. We explain why the CKN inequality can be viewed as a Sobolev inequality on a weighted Riemannian manifold. More precisely, we…
In this paper, by mainly using the rearrangement technique and suitably constructing trial functions, under the constraint of fixed weighted volume, we can successfully obtain several isoperimetric inequalities for the first and the second…
We prove a comparison theorem for the averages of the solutions of two exterior parabolic problems, the second being the "symmetrization" of the first one, by using approximation of the Schwarz symmetrization by polarizations, as it was…
The Lagrange-Poincare equations of classical mechanics are cast into a field theoretic context together with their associated constrained variational principle. An integrability/reconstruction condition is established that relates solutions…
This note provides a new approach to a result of Foregger and related earlier results by Keilson and Eberlein. Using quite different techniques, we prove a more general result from which the others follow easily. Finally, we argue that the…
We show that for any positive integer k, the k-th nonzero eigenvalue of the Laplace-Beltrami operator on the two-dimensional sphere endowed with a Riemannian metric of unit area, is maximized in the limit by a sequence of metrics converging…
We provide a quantitative version of the isoperimetric inequality for the fundamental tone of a biharmonic Neumann problem. Such an inequality has been recently established by Chasman adapting Weinberger's argument for the corresponding…
Transport and mixing in dynamical systems are important properties for many physical, chemical, biological, and engineering processes. The detection of transport barriers for dynamics with general time dependence is a difficult, but…
New isoperimetric inequalities for lower order eigenvalues of the Laplacian on closed hypersurfaces, of the biharmonic Steklov problems and of the Wentzell-Laplace on bounded domains in a Euclidean space are proven. Some open questions for…
We discuss our work on pointwise inequalities for the gradient which are connected with the isoperimetric profile associated to a given geometry. We show how they can be used to unify certain aspects of the theory of Sobolev inequalities.…
