We present a unified and concise method for establishing L^p Hardy and Rellich inequalities for a broad class of subelliptic operators of divergence type. The approach, based on a fundamental algebraic identity, provides explicit control on…

We derive a Bernstein von-Mises theorem in the context of misspecified, non-i.i.d., hierarchical models parametrized by a finite-dimensional parameter of interest. We apply our results to hierarchical models containing non-linear operators,…

We prove boundary H\"older and Lipschitz regularity for a class of degenerate elliptic, second order, inhomogeneous equations in non-divergence form structured on the left-invariant vector fields of the Heisenberg group. Our focus is on the…

We strengthen H\"older's inequality. The new family of sharp inequalities we obtain might be thought of as an analog of Pythagorean theorem for the $L^p$ spaces. Our reasonings rely upon Bellman functions of four variables.

In the paper we consider the Bessel differential operator L^(\mu)=\dfrac{d^2}{dx^2}+\dfrac{2\mu+1}{x}\dfrac{d}{dx} in half-line (a,\infty), a>0, and its Dirichlet heat kernel p_a^(\mu)(t,x,y). For \mu=0, by combining analytical and…

We prove an optimal reverse Poincar\'e inequality for the heat semigroup generated by the sub-Laplacian on a Carnot group of any step. As an application we give new proofs of the isoperimetric inequality and of the boundedness of the Riesz…

This paper establishes several new inequalities for the $A$-norm and $A$-numerical radius of operator sums in semi-Hilbertian spaces, significantly advancing the existing theory. We present two fundamental refinements of the generalized…

We prove the following sharp upper bound for the gradient of the Neumann semigroup $P_t$ on a $d$-dimensional compact domain $\OO$ with boundary either $C^2$-smooth or convex: $$\|\nn P_t\|_{1\to \infty}\le \ff{c}{t^{(d+1)/2}},\ \ t>0,$$…

In this paper we obtain a Bernstein type inequality for a class of weakly dependent and bounded random variables. The proofs lead to a moderate deviations principle for sums of bounded random variables with exponential decay of the strong…

This article focuses on $L^p$ estimates for objects associated to elliptic operators in divergence form: its semigroup, the gradient of the semigroup, functional calculus, square functions and Riesz transforms. We introduce four critical…

We give a new proof of the sharp one weight $L^p$ inequality for any operator $T$ that can be approximated by Haar shift operators such as the Hilbert transform, any Riesz transform, the Beurling-Ahlfors operator. Our proof avoids the…

This paper studies Brownian motion and heat kernel measure on a class of infinite dimensional Lie groups. We prove a Cameron-Martin type quasi-invariance theorem for the heat kernel measure and give estimates on the $L^p$ norms of the…

We prove a perturbation result for positive semigroups, thereby extending a heat kernel estimate by Barlow, Grigor'yan and Kumagai for Dirichlet forms (\cite{bgk2009}) to positive semigroups. This also leads to a generalization of…

The Harnack inequality established in [13] for generalized Mehler semigroup is improved and generalized. As applications, the log-Harnack inequality, the strong Feller property, the hyper-bounded property, and some heat kernel inequalities…

On a large class of Riemannian manifolds with boundary, some dimension-free Harnack inequalities for the Neumann semigroup is proved to be equivalent to the convexity of the boundary and a curvature condition. In particular, for $p_t(x,y)$…

Bernstein polynomials, long a staple of approximation theory and computational geometry, have also increasingly become of interest in finite element methods. Many fundamental problems in interpolation and approximation give rise to…

Let $L$ be an elliptic differential operator on a complete connected Riemannian manifold $M$ such that the associated heat kernel has two-sided Gaussian bounds as well as a Gaussian type gradient estimate. Let $L^{(\aa)}$ be the…

By constructing a coupling with unbounded time-dependent drift, dimension-free Harnack inequalities are established for a large class of stochastic differential equations with multiplicative noise. These inequalities are applied to the…

We determine the processes obtained from a large class of reflected Brownian motions (RBMs) in the nonnegative orthant by means of time reversal. The class of RBMs we deal with includes, but is not limited to, RBMs in the so-called…

We consider a self-adjoint non-negative operator $H$ in a Hilbert space $\mathsf{L}^2(X,{\rm d}\mu)$. We assume that the semigroup $(\mathrm{e}^{-t H})_{t>0}$ is defined by an integral kernel, $p$, which allows an estimate of the form…
