We prove a lower bound for the Cheeger constant of a cylinder $\Omega\times (0,L)$, where $\Omega$ is an open and bounded set. As a consequence, we obtain existence of minimizers for the shape functional defined as the ratio between the…
Let $\Omega\subset\mathbb R^n$ be a $C^1$ domain, or more generally, a Lipschitz domain with small local Lipschitz constant. In this paper it is shown that if $u$ is a function harmonic in $\Omega$ and continuous in $\overline \Omega$ which…
For $\Omega\subseteq\mathbb{R}^{n}$ an open and bounded region we consider solutions $u\in W_{\text{loc}}^{1,p(x)}\big(\Omega;\mathbb{R}^{N}\big)$, with $N>1$, of the $p(x)$-Laplacian system \begin{equation}…
We prove a local $L^p$-Poincar\'e inequality, $1\leq p < \infty$, on noncompact Lie groups endowed with a sub-Riemannian structure. We show that the constant involved grows at most exponentially with respect to the radius of the ball, and…

The classic Poincare inequality bounds the $L^q$-norm of a function $f$ in a bounded domain $\Omega \subset \R^n$ in terms of some $L^p$-norm of its gradient in $\Omega$. We generalize this in two ways: In the first generalization we remove…
Let $0<s<1$ and $p>1$ be such that $ps<N$. Assume that $\Omega$ is a bounded domain containing the origin. Staring from the ground state inequality by R. Frank and R. Seiringer we obtain: 1- The following improved Hardy inequality for $p\ge…
A stability result in terms of the perimeter is obtained for the first Dirichlet eigenvalue of the Laplacian operator. In particular, we prove that, once we fix the dimension $n\geq2$, there exists a constant $c>0$, depending only on $n$,…
We are interested in the inverse problem of the determination of the potential $p(x), x\in\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^n$ from the measurement of the normal derivative $\partial_\nu u$ on a suitable part $\Gamma_0$ of the boundary of $\Omega$,…
We show that given a homeomorphism $f:G\rightarrow\Omega$ where $G$ is a open subset of $\mathbb{R}^2$ and $\Omega$ is a open subset of a $2$-Ahlfors regular metric measure space supporting a weak $(1,1)$-Poincar\'e inequality, it holds…
In this paper, with a fixed $p\in (1,+\infty)$ and a bounded domain $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^N$ whose boundary $\partial\Omega$ fulfills the $C^1$ regularity, we study a boundary value problem involving a nonlocal operator assigning to…
We consider nonnegative solutions $u:\Omega\longrightarrow \mathbb{R}$ of second order hypoelliptic equations \begin{equation*} \mathscr{L} u(x) =\sum_{i,j=1}^n \partial_{x_i} \left(a_{ij}(x)\partial_{x_j} u(x) \right) + \sum_{i=1}^n b_i(x)…
We give bounds on the Poincare (inverse spectral gap) constant of a non-negative, integer-valued random variable W, under negative dependence assumptions such as ultra log-concavity and total negative dependence. We show that the bounds…

In this paper we study approximations of functions of Sobolev spaces $W^2_{p,\loc}(\Omega)$, $\Omega\subset\mathbb R^n$, by Lipschitz continuous functions. We prove that if $f\in W^2_{p,\loc}(\Omega)$, $1\leq p<\infty$, then there exists a…
Assume that $p > 1$ and $p - 1 \le \alpha \le p$ are real numbers and $\Omega$ is a non-empty open subset of ${\mathbb R}^n$, $n \ge 2$. We consider the inequality $$ {\rm div} \, A (x, D u) + b (x) |D u|^\alpha \ge 0, $$ where $D =…
