In this paper, we prove that the discrete Copson inequality (E.T. Copson, \emph{Notes on a series of positive terms}, J. London Math. Soc., 2 (1927), 49-51) of one-dimension in general cases admits an improvement. In fact we study the…

We give an alternate proof of one of the inequalities proved recently for martingales (=sums of martingale differences) in a non-commutative $L_p$-space, with $1<p<\infty$, by Q. Xu and the author. This new approach is restricted to $p$ an…

In this paper, we give some $l_p$-type inequalities about sequences satisfying certain quasi monotone type properties. As special cases, reverse $l_p$-type inequalities for non-negative decreasing sequences are obtained. The inequalities…

For a fixed $1\le p<+\infty$ denote by $\Vert\cdot\Vert_p$ the usual norm in the space $l_p$ (or $L_p$). In this paper we prove that for all real numbers $p$ and $q$ such that $2\le p\le q$ holds $$ 2(\Vert x\Vert_p^q+\Vert y\Vert_p^q)\le…

A short proof of the classic Hardy inequality is presented for $p$-norms with $p>1$. Along the lines of this proof a sharpened version is proved of a recent generalization of Hardy's inequality in the terminology of probability theory. A…

The operators on $\LP=L_p[0,1]$, $1\leq p<\infty$, which are not commutators are those of the form $\lambda I + S$ where $\lambda\neq 0$ and $S$ belongs to the largest ideal in $\opLP$. The proof involves new structural results for…

Let $0<s<1$ and $p>1$ be such that $ps<N$. Assume that $\Omega$ is a bounded domain containing the origin. Staring from the ground state inequality by R. Frank and R. Seiringer we obtain: 1- The following improved Hardy inequality for $p\ge…

In this paper we consider the recurrent equation $$\Lambda_{p+1}=\frac1p\sum_{q=1}^pf\bigg(\frac{q}{p+1}\bigg)\Lambda_{q}\Lambda_{p+1-q}$$ for $p\ge 1$ with $f\in C[0,1]$ and $\Lambda_1=y>0$ given. We give conditions on $f$ that guarantee…

In this work, the $L_p$ version (for $p> 1$) of the dimensional Brunn-Minkowski inequality for the standard Gaussian measure $\gamma_n(\cdot)$ on $\mathbb{R}^n$ is shown. More precisely, we prove that for any $0$-symmetric convex sets with…

Suppose that $1<p\leq\infty$ and $\varphi\in L^{p}(\mathbb{B}^{n},\mathbb{R}^{n}).$ In this note, we use H\"{o}lder inequality and some basic properties of hypergeometric functions to establish the sharp constant $C_{p}$ and function…

For fixed positive integer $n$, $p\in[0,1]$, $a\in(0,1)$, we prove that if a function $g:\mathbb{S}^{n-1}\to \mathbb{R}$ is sufficiently close to 1, in the $C^a$ sense, then there exists a unique convex body $K$ whose $L_p$ curvature…

Several new inequalities for moduli of smoothness and errors of the best approximation of a function and its derivatives in the spaces $L_p$, $0<p<1$, are obtained. For example, it is shown that for any $0<p<1$ and $k,\,r\in \mathbb{N}$ one…

In this paper we show that, if an increasing sequence $\Lambda=(\lambda_k)_{k\in\mathbb{Z}}$ has gaps going to infinity $\lambda_{k+1}-\lambda_k\to +\infty$ when $k\to\pm\infty$, then for every $T>0$ and every sequence…

We study local boundedness for subsolutions of nonlinear nonuniformly elliptic equations whose prototype is given by $\nabla \cdot (\lambda |\nabla u|^{p-2}\nabla u)=0$, where the variable coefficient $0\leq\lambda$ and its inverse…

Let $1\le p<\8$ and $(x_n)_{\nen}$ be a sequence of positive elements in a non-commutative $L_p$ space and $(E_n)_{\nen}$ be an increasing sequence of conditional expectations, then the $L_p$ norm of \sum_n E_n(x_n) can be estimated by c_p…

In this paper we give an extension of the classical Caffarelli-Kohn-Nirenberg inequalities: we show that for $1<p,q<\infty$, $0<r<\infty$ with $p+q\geq r$, $\delta\in[0,1]\cap\left[\frac{r-q}{r},\frac{p}{r}\right]$ with $\frac{\delta…
