We develop new sub-optimality bounds for gradient descent (GD) that depend on the conditioning of the objective along the path of optimization rather than on global, worst-case constants. Key to our proofs is directional smoothness, a…
Given $E \subset \mathbb{R}^d$, $d \ge 2$, define ${\mathcal D}(E) \equiv {(x-y)/|x-y|: x,y \in E} \subset S^{d-1},$ the set of directions determined by $E$. We prove that if the Hausdorff dimension of $E$ is greater than $d-1$, then…
We prove a new general Poincar\'e-type inequality for differential forms on compact Riemannian manifolds with nonempty boundary. When the boundary is isometrically immersed in Euclidean space, we derive a new inequality involving mean and…
We introduce suitable coordinate systems for pipes and their variants that allow us to transform partial differential equations (PDEs) on the pipe surfaces or in the solid pipes into computational domains with fixed limits/ranges. Such a…
We prove discrete versions of the first and second Weber inequalities on $\boldsymbol{H}(\mathbf{curl})\cap\boldsymbol{H}(\mathrm{div}_{\eta})$-like hybrid spaces spanned by polynomials attached to the faces and to the cells of a polyhedral…
For each $n\geq2$ we construct an unbounded closed pseudoconcave complete pluripolar set $\mathcal E$ in $\mathbb C^n$ which contains no analytic variety of positive dimension (we call it a \textit{Wermer type set}). We also construct an…
In the context of Sobolev spaces with variable exponents, Poincar\'e--Wirtinger inequalities are possible as soon as Luxemburg norms are considered. On the other hand, modular versions of the inequalities in the expected form…
We prove that for every $n \ge 2$, there exists a pseudoconvex domain $\Omega \subset \mathbb{C}^n$ such that $\mathfrak{c}^0(\Omega) \subsetneq \mathfrak{c}^1(\Omega)$, where $\mathfrak{c}^k(\Omega)$ denotes the core of $\Omega$ with…
In this paper we prove Poincar\'e inequalities for the Discrete de Rham (DDR) sequence on a general connected polyhedral domain $\Omega$ of $\mathbb{R}^3$. We unify the ideas behind the inequalities for all three operators in the sequence,…
For each open, bounded and convex domain $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^{D},$ $D\geq 2$, and each real number $p>1,$ we denote by $u_{p}$ the $p$\emph{-torsion function} on $\Omega $, i.e. the solution of the \emph{torsional creep problem}…
We first define the trace on a domain $\Omega$ which is definable in an o-minimal structure. We then show that every function $u\in W^{1,p}(\Omega)$ vanishing on the boundary in the trace sense satisfies Poincar\'e inequality. We finally…
For any convex set $\Omega \subset {\mathbb R} ^N$, we provide a lower bound for the inverse of the Poincar\'e constant in $W ^ {1, 1}(\Omega)$: it refines an inequality in terms of the diameter due to Acosta-Duran, via the addition of an…
Let $\Omega\subset R^n$ be a bounded convex domain with $n\ge2$. Suppose that $A$ is uniformly elliptic and belongs to $W^{1,n}$ when $n\ge 3$ or $W^{1,q}$ for some $q>2$ when $n=2$. For $1<p<\infty$, we build up a global second order…
We assume that $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^{d+1}$, $d \geq 2$, is a uniform domain with lower $d$-Ahlfors-David regular and $d$-rectifiable boundary. We show that if $\mathcal{H}^d|_{\partial \Omega}$ is locally finite, then the Hausdorff…
We prove that if $E$ is a compact subset of the unit disk ${\mathbb D}$ in the complex plane, if $E$ contains a sequence of distinct points $a_n\not= 0$ for $n\geq 1$ such that $\lim_{n\to\infty} a_n=0$ and for all $n$ we have $ |a_{n+1}|…
Let $\Omega\subset{\mathbb R}^2$ be a bounded domain on which Hardy's inequality holds. We prove that $[\exp(u^2)-1]/\delta^2\in L^1(\Omega)$ if $u\in H^1_0(\Omega)$, where $\delta$ denotes the distance to $\partial\Omega$. The…
We present a coordinate-free version of Fefferman's solution of Whitney's extension problem in the space $C^{m-1,1}(\mathbb{R}^n)$. While the original argument relies on an elaborate induction on collections of partial derivatives, our…
Given an open bounded subset $\Omega$ of $\mathbb{R}^n$, which is convex and satisfies an interior sphere condition, we consider the pde $-\Delta_{\infty} u = 1$ in $\Omega$, subject to the homogeneous boundary condition $u = 0$ on…
The classical Poincar\'e inequality establishes that for any bounded regular domain $\Omega\subset \R^N$ there exists a constant $C=C(\Omega)>0$ such that $$ \int_{\Omega} |u|^2\, dx \leq C \int_{\Omega} |\nabla u|^2\, dx \ \ \forall u \in…
For $p \in (1,N)$ and $\Omega \subseteq \mathbb{R}^N$ open, the Beppo-Levi space $\mathcal{D}^{1,p}_0(\Omega)$ is the completion of $C_c^{\infty}(\Omega)$ with respect to the norm $\left( \int_{\Omega}|\nabla u|^p \right)^ \frac{1}{p}.$…
