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…
Sharp constants for an inequality of Poincar\'e type is studied. The problem is solved by using optimal control theory.
In this note, we derive an asymptotically sharp upper bound on the number of lattice points in terms of the volume of centrally symmetric convex bodies. Our main tool is a generalization of a result of Davenport that bounds the number of…
We summarize researches - in great deal jointly with my host Y. Sarantopoulos and his PhD. students V. Anagnostopoulos and A. Pappas - started by a Marie Curie fellowship in 2001 and is still continuing. The project was to study…
We provide a sharp double-sided estimate for Poincar\'e-Sobolev constants on a convex set, in terms of its inradius and $N-$dimensional measure. Our results extend and unify previous works by Hersch and Protter (for the first eigenvalue)…
We consider the classical problem of estimating norms of higher order derivatives of algebraic polynomial via the norms of polynomial itself. The corresponding extremal problem for general polynomials in uniform norm was solved by A. A.…
Four Jacobi settings are considered in the context of Hardy's inequality: the trigonometric polynomials and functions, and the corresponding symmetrized systems. In the polynomial cases sharp Hardy's inequality is proved for the type…
We prove estimates for the sharp constants in fractional Poincar\'e-Sobolev inequalities associated to an open set, in terms of a nonlocal capacitary extension of its inradius. This work builds upon previous results obtained in the local…
On a convex set, we prove that the Poincar\'e-Sobolev constant for functions vanishing at the boundary can be bounded from above by the ratio between the perimeter and a suitable power of the $N-$dimensional measure. This generalizes an old…
Markov's inequality for algebraic polynomials on $\left[-1,1\right]$ goes back to more than a century and it is widely used in approximation theory. Its asymptotically sharp form for unions of finitely many intervals has been found only in…
We obtain Rosenthal-type inequalities with sharp constants for moments of sums of independent random variables which are mixtures of a fixed distribution. We also identify extremisers in log-concave settings when the moments of summands are…
We study the $P_1$ finite element approximation of the best constant in the classical Hardy inequality over bounded domains containing the origin in $\mathbb{R}^N$, for $N \geq 3$. Despite the fact that this constant is not attained in the…
We present two sharp, closed-form empirical Bernstein inequalities for symmetric random matrices with bounded eigenvalues. By sharp, we mean that both inequalities adapt to the unknown variance in a tight manner: the deviation captured by…
Let $P_1,\dots, P_n$ and $Q_1,\dots, Q_n$ be convex polytopes in $\mathbb{R}^n$ such that $P_i\subset Q_i$. It is well-known that the mixed volume has the monotonicity property: $V(P_1,\dots,P_n)\leq V(Q_1,\dots,Q_n)$. We give two criteria…
Given a bounded convex open set $\Omega\subseteq \mathbb R^N$, we prove that the Poincar\'e-Sobolev constants $\lambda_{p,q}(\Omega)$ can be bounded from below by the $p$-power of the ratio between the perimeter of $\Omega$ and a suitable…
The distance between convex bodies \(K, L \subseteq \R^n\) is defined as \[ d(K,L)= \inf \left\{ \lambda \ge 1: \ L-x \subseteq T (K-y) \subseteq \lambda (L-x) \right\}, \] where the infimum is taken over all \(x,y \in \R^n\) and all…
We derive the non-asymptotical non-uniform sharp error estimation for Bernstein's approximation of continuous function based on the modern probabilistic apparatus. We investigate also the convergence of derivative of these polynomials and…
This paper establishes a sharp Schwarz-Pick type inequality for real-valued invariant harmonic functions defined on the complex unit ball $\mathbb B^n$. The proof of this main result simultaneously provides a solution to a natural extension…
Sharp quadrature formulas for integrals of complex rational functions on circles, real axis and its segments are obtained. We also find sharp quadrature formulas for calculation of $L_2$-norms of rational functions on such sets. Basing on…
We obtain strong converse inequalities for the Bernstein polynomials with explicit asymptotic constants. We give different estimation procedures in the central and non-central regions of [0,1]. The main ingredients in our approach are the…
