We prove existence of minimizers for the sharp Poincar\'e-Sobolev constant in general Steiner symmetric sets, in the subcritical and superhomogeneous regime. The sets considered are not necessarily bounded, thus the relevant embeddings may…

We settle the problem of finding the sharp constant in the log Sobolev inequality on the $n$-cycle for all $n\ge 4$, by showing that it is equal to half of the spectral gap. We deduce this result from an optimal cubic Sobolev inequality.

The current status concerning Hardy-type inequalities with sharp constants is presented and described in a unified convexity way. In particular, it is then natural to replace the Lebesgue measure $dx$ with the Haar measure $dx/x.$ There are…
