We investigate the possibility of improving the $p$-Poincar\'e inequality $\|\nabla_{\mathbb{H}^N} u\|_p \ge \Lambda_p \|u\|_p$ on the hyperbolic space, where $p>2$ and $\Lambda_p:=[(N-1)/p]^{p}$ is the best constant for which such…
We prove a one-dimensional Hardy inequality on the halfline with sharp constant, which improves the classical form of this inequality. As a consequence of this new inequality we can rederive known doubly weighted Hardy inequalities. Our…
Let $E_i(H)$ denote the negative eigenvalues of the one-dimensional Schr\"odinger operator $Hu:=-u^{\prime\prime}-Vu,\ V\geq 0,$ on $L_2({\Bbb R})$. We prove the inequality \sum_i|E_i(H)|^\gamma\leq L_{\gamma,1}\int_{\Bbb R}…
We consider a diffusion on a potential landscape which is given by a smooth Hamiltonian $H:\mathbb {R}^n\to \mathbb {R}$ in the regime of low temperature $\varepsilon$. We proof the Eyring-Kramers formula for the optimal constant in the…
In this work we establish the following fractional Hardy's inequality $$C\int_{\mathbb{H}^n_+}\frac{|f(\xi)|^p}{x_1^{sp+\alpha}}d\xi\leq \int_{\mathbb{H}^n}\int_{\mathbb{H}^n}\frac{|f(\xi)-f(\xi')|^p}{d({\xi}^{-1}\circ…
We prove second and fourth order improved Poincar\'e type inequalities on the hyperbolic space involving Hardy-type remainder terms. Since theirs l.h.s. only involve the radial part of the gradient or of the laplacian, they can be seen as…
We prove a new inequality which improves on the classical Hardy inequality in the sense that a nonlinear integral quantity with super-quadratic growth, which is computed with respect to an inverse square weight, is controlled by the energy.…
In this note we give a new proof of the sharp constant $C = e^{-1/2} + \int_0^1 e^{-x^2/2}\,dx$ in the weak (1, 1) inequality for the dyadic square function. The proof makes use of two Bellman functions $\mathbb{L}$ and $\mathbb{M}$ related…
In this paper we obtain an inequality on the unit disc $B$ in the plane, which improves the classical Moser-Trudinger inequality and the classical Hardy inequality at the same time. Namely, there exists a constant $C_0>0$ such that \[…
We obtain a sharp estimate for the best constant $C>0$ in the Wirtinger type inequality \[ \int_0^{2\pi}\gamma^pw^2\le C\int_0^{2\pi}\gamma^qw'^2 \] where $\gamma$ is bounded above and below away from zero, $w$ is $2\pi$-periodic and such…
In this paper, we obtain stability results for the $L^{p}$-Poincar\'e inequality for both Lebesgue and Gaussian probability measures (Theorem 3.3 and Theorem 3.13) that involve explicit dependence on the geometry of the domain. As a…
We give a partial negative answer to a question left open in a previous work by Brasco and the first and third-named authors concerning the sharp constant in the fractional Hardy inequality on convex sets. Our approach has a geometrical…
Although the Hardy inequality corresponding to one quadratic singularity, with optimal constant, does not admit any extremal function, it is well known that such a potential can be improved, in the sense that a positive term can be added to…
In this paper we obtain a new constant in the P\'{o}lya-Vinogradov inequality. Our argument follows previously established techniques which use the Fourier expansion of an interval to reduce to Gauss sums. Our improvement comes from…
Firstly, we derive in dimension one a new covariance inequality of $L_{1}-L_{\infty}$ type that characterizes the isoperimetric constant as the best constant achieving the inequality. Secondly, we generalize our result to $L_{p}-L_{q}$…
We study the sharp constant in the Hardy inequality for fractional Sobolev spaces defined on open subsets of the Euclidean space. We first list some properties of such a constant, as well as of the associated variational problem. We then…
We discuss situations where perturbing a probability measure on $\mathbb{R}^n$ does not deteriorate its Poincar\'e constant by much. A particular example is the symmetric exponential measure in $\mathbb{R}^n$, even log-concave perturbations…
We study Hardy-type inequalities associated to the quadratic form of the shifted Laplacian $-\Delta_{\mathbb H^N}-(N-1)^2/4$ on the hyperbolic space ${\mathbb H}^N$, $(N-1)^2/4$ being, as it is well-known, the bottom of the $L^2$-spectrum…
We find the sharp constants $C_p$ and the sharp functions $C_p=C_p(x)$ in the inequality $$|u(x)|\leq \frac{C_p}{(1-|x|^2)^{(n-1)/p}}\|u\|_{h^p(B^n)}, u\in h^p(B^n), x\in B^n,$$ in terms of Gauss hypergeometric and Euler functions. This…
We study stability of the sharp Poincar{\'e} constant of the invariant probability measure of a reversible diffusion process satisfying some natural conditions. The proof is based on the spectral interpretation of Poincar{\'e} inequalities…
