Consider an essentially nonbranching metric measure space with the measure contraction property of Ohta and Sturm, or with a Ricci curvature lower bound in the sense of Lott, Sturm and Villani. We prove a sharp upper bound on the inscribed…

In our previous paper on this topic, we introduced the notion of k-Hessian measure associated with a continuous k-convex function in a domain \Om in Euclidean n-space, k=1,...,n, and proved a weak continuity result with respect to local…

We obtain new proofs with improved constants of the Khintchine-type inequality with matrix coefficients in two cases. The first case is the Pisier and Lust-Piquard noncommutative Khintchine inequality for $p=1$, where we obtain the sharp…

Minkowski's Theorem asserts that every centered measure on the sphere which is not concentrated on a great subsphere is the surface area measure of some convex body, and, moreover, the surface area measure determines a convex body uniquely.…

We give two results about Harnack type inequalities. First, on compact smooth Riemannian surface without boundary, we have an estimate of the type $\sup +\inf$. The second result concerns the solutions of prescribed scalar curvature…

Let $\mathscr{C}_n=\{-1,1\}^n$ be the discrete hypercube equipped with the uniform probability measure $\sigma_n$. Talagrand's influence inequality (1994) asserts that there exists $C\in(0,\infty)$ such that for every $n\in\mathbb{N}$,…

Let $\mu$ be a Gaussian measure (say, on ${\bf R}^n$) and let $K, L \subset {\bf R}^n$ be such that K is convex, $L$ is a "layer" (i.e. $L = \{x : a \leq < x,u > \leq b \}$ for some $a$, $b \in {\bf R}$ and $u \in {\bf R}^n$) and the…

We show that the Harnack inequality for a class of degenerate parabolic quasilinear PDE $$\p_t u=-X_i^* A_i(x,t,u,Xu)+ B(x,t,u,Xu),$$ associated to a system of Lipschitz continuous vector fields $X=(X_1,...,X_m)$ in in $\Om\times (0,T)$…

We prove a weak-type (1,1) inequality for square functions of non-commutative martingales that are simultaneously bounded in $L^2$ and $L^1$. More precisely, the following non-commutative analogue of a classical result of Burkholder holds:…

We provide extensions of geometric inequalities about sections and projections of convex bodies to the setting of integrable log-concave functions. Namely, we consider suitable generalizations of the affine and dual affine quermassintegrals…

A comparison problem for volumes of convex bodies asks whether inequalities $f_K(\xi)\le f_L(\xi)$ for all $\xi\in S^{n-1}$ imply that $\vol_n(K)\le \vol_n(L),$ where $K,L$ are convex bodies in $\R^n,$ and $f_K$ is a certain geometric…

Let K be a closed bounded convex subset of $\Bbb R^n$; then by a result of the first author, which extends a classical theorem of Whitney there is a constant $w_m(K)$ so that for every continuous function f on K there is a polynomial $\phi$…

An old conjecture in non-K\"ahler geometry states that, if a compact Hermitian manifold has constant holomorphic sectional curvature, then the metric must be K\"ahler (when the constant is non-zero) or Chern flat (when the constant is…
