For a finite set $A\subset \mathbb{R}$ and real $\lambda$, let $A+\lambda A:=\{a+\lambda b :\, a,b\in A\}$. Combining a structural theorem of Freiman on sets with small doubling constants together with a discrete analogue of…
Given a probability measure space $(X,\Sigma,\mu)$, it is well known that the Riesz space $L^0(\mu)$ of equivalence classes of measurable functions $f: X \to \mathbf{R}$ is universally complete and the constant function $\mathbf{1}$ is a…
This paper provides a discrete Poincar\'e inequality in $n$ space dimensions on a simplex $K$ with explicit constants. This inequality bounds the norm of the piecewise derivative of functions with integral mean zero on $K$ and all integrals…
Let $\mu$ be a measure in $\mathbb R^d$ with compact support and continuous density, and let $$ R^s\mu(x)=\int\frac{y-x}{|y-x|^{s+1}}\,d\mu(y),\ \ x,y\in\mathbb R^d,\ \ 0<s<d. $$ We consider the following conjecture: $$ \sup_{x\in\mathbb…
In image and audio signal classification, a major problem is to build stable representations that are invariant under rigid motions and, more generally, to small diffeomorphisms. Translation invariant representations of signals in…
Let $\chi$ be a real primitive character to the modulus $D$. It is proved that $$ L(1,\chi)\gg (\log D)^{-2022} $$ where the implied constant is absolute and effectively computable. In the proof, the lower bound for $L(1,\chi)$ is first…
The Riesz-Sobolev inequality provides an upper bound, in integral form, for the convolution of indicator functions of subsets of Euclidean space. We formulate and prove a sharper form of the inequality. This can be equivalently phrased as a…
For any Calder\'on-Zygmund operator $ T$, any weight $ w$, and $ \alpha >1$, the operator $ T$ is bounded as a map from $ L ^{1} (M _{ L \log\log L (\log\log\log L) ^{\alpha } } w )$ into weak-$L^1(w)$. The interest in questions of this…
Let ${\cal P}_n^c$ denote the set of all algebraic polynomials of degree at most $n$ with complex coefficients. Let $$D^+ := \{z \in \mathbb{C}: |z| \leq 1, \, \, \Im(z) \geq 0\}$$ be the closed upper half-disk of the complex plane. For…

We prove that for any $2<p<\infty$ and for every $n$-dimensional subspace $X$ of $L_p$, represented on $\mathbb R^n$, whose unit ball $B_X$ is in Lewis' position one has the following two-level Gaussian concentration inequality: \[ \mathbb…
Recently Talagrand [T] estimated the deviation of a function on $\{0,1\}^n$ from its median in terms of the Lipschitz constant of a convex extension of $f$ to $\ell ^n_2$; namely, he proved that $$P(|f-M_f| > c) \le 4 e^{-t^2/4\sigma ^2}$$…
We demonstrate that the failure of $L^1$ regularity in Calder\'on-Zygmund theory is a universal phenomenon: every non-constant holomorphic function in $\C^n$ generates a counterexample to the Poisson equation. In order to achieve this goal,…
We provide a Fefferman-Stein type weighted inequality for maximally modulated Calder\'on-Zygmund operators that satisfy \textit{a priori} weak type unweighted estimates. This inequality corresponds to a maximally modulated version of a…
In this paper we show that if $\mu$ is a Borel measure in $\mathbb R^{n+1}$ with growth of order $n$, so that the $n$-dimensional Riesz transform $R_\mu$ is bounded in $L^2(\mu)$, and $B\subset\mathbb R^{n+1}$ is a ball with $\mu(B)\approx…
We derive bounds and asymptotics for the maximum Riesz polarization quantity $$M_n^p(A) := \max_{{\bold x}_1, {\bold x}_2, \ldots, {\bold x}_n \in A} {\min_{{\bold x} \in A}{\sum_{j=1}^n{\frac{1}{|{\bold x} - {\bold x}_j|^{p}}}}}$$ (which…
We establish analogs of sharp weighted weak-type bounds for $m$-sublinear operators satisfying sparse form domination, including multilinear Calder\'on-Zygmund singular integrals. Our results, which hold for general $\vec{p} \in…

Let $u$ be a harmonic function in the unit ball $B(0,1) \subset \mathbb{R}^n$, $n \geq 3$, such that $u(0)=0$. Nadirashvili conjectured that there exists a positive constant $c$, depending on the dimension $n$ only, such that $H^{n-1}(\{u=0…
In this note we give a new proof of the sharp constant $C = e^{-1/2} + \int_0^1 e^{-x^2/2}\,dx$ in the weak (1, 1) inequality for the dyadic square function. The proof makes use of two Bellman functions $\mathbb{L}$ and $\mathbb{M}$ related…
