In a recent work (Int Math Res Not 24:18604-18612, 2021), Carlen-Jauslin-Lieb-Loss studied the convolution inequality $f \ge f*f$ on $\mathbb{R}^d$ and proved that the real integrable solutions of the above inequality must be non-negative…

A non-negative function f, defined on the real line or on a half-line, is said to be directly Riemann integrable (d.R.i.) if the upper and lower Riemann sums of f over the whole (unbounded) domain converge to the same finite limit, as the…

Given a function $f$ defined on a nonempty and convex subset of the $d$-dimensional Euclidean space, we prove that if $f$ is bounded from below and it satisfies a convexity-type functional inequality with infinite convex combinations, then…

Let $f,g:\Bbb{R}^{N}\rightarrow (-\infty ,\infty ]$ be Borel measurable, bounded below and such that $\inf f+\inf g\geq 0.$ We prove that with $ m_{f,g}:=(\inf f-\inf g)/2,$ the inequality $||(f-m_{f,g})^{-1}||_{\phi…

Let $d\ge 2$ and $T$ be the convolution operator $Tf(x)=\int_{\reals^{d-1}} f(x'-t,x_d-|t|^2)\,dt$, which is is bounded from $L^{(d+1)/d}(\reals^d)$ to $L^{d+1}(\reals^d)$. We show that any critical point $f\in L^{(d+1)/d}$ of the…

We prove that any isotropic positive definite function on the sphere can be written as the spherical self-convolution of an isotropic real-valued function. It is known that isotropic positive definite functions on d-dimensional Euclidean…

We demonstrate a phenomenon of condensation of the Fourier transform $\widehat{f}$ of a function $f$ defined on the real line $\mathbb{R}$ which decreases rapidly on one half of the line. For instance, we prove that if $f$ is…

Let $\mathcal{F}$ denote the set of functions $f \colon [-1/2,1/2] \to \mathbb{R}$ such that $\int f = 1$. We determine the value of $\inf_{f \in \mathcal{F}} \| f \ast f \|_2$ up to a 0.0014\% error, thereby making progress on a problem…

We investigate multivariate integration for a space of infinitely times differentiable functions $\mathcal{F}_{s, \boldsymbol{u}} := \{f \in C^\infty [0,1]^s \mid \| f \|_{\mathcal{F}_{s, \boldsymbol{u}}} < \infty \}$, where $\| f…

We give two variations on a result of Wilkie's on unary functions defianble in $\mathbb{R}_{an,\exp}$ that take integer values at positive integers. Provided that the functions grows slower than the function $2^x$, Wilkie showed that is…

We show that for any $k$-times continuously differentiable function $f:[a,\infty)\longrightarrow{\mathbb R}$, any integer $q\ge 0$ and any $\alpha>1$ the inequality $$\liminf_{x\to\infty} \frac{x^k \cdot\log x\cdot \log_2 x\cdot\dots\cdot…

We discuss three convolution inequalities that are connected to additive combinatorics. Cloninger and the second author showed that for nonnegative $f \in L^1(-1/4, 1/4)$, $$ \max_{-1/2 \leq t \leq 1/2} \int_{\mathbb{R}}{f(t-x) f(x) dx}…

The Riesz-Sobolev inequality relates the convolution of nonnegative functions on Euclidean space to the convolution of their symmetric nonincreasing rearrangements. We show that for dimension one, for indicator functions of sets, if the…

If $F$ is a continuous function on the real line and $f=F'$ is its distributional derivative then the continuous primitive integral of distribution $f$ is $\int_a^bf=F(b)-F(a)$. This integral contains the Lebesgue, Henstock--Kurzweil and…

We derive a new criterion for a real-valued function $u$ to be in the Sobolev space $W^{1,2}(\R^n)$. This criterion consists of comparing the value of a functional $\int f(u)$ with the values of the same functional applied to convolutions…
