Trace classes of Sobolev-type functions in metric spaces are subject of this paper. In particular, functions on domains whose boundary has an upper codimension-$\theta$ bound are considered. Based on a Poincar\'e inequality, existence of a…
We apply spectral theoretic methods to obtain a Littlewood-Paley decomposition of abstract inhomogeneous Besov spaces in terms of "smooth" and "bandlimited" functions. Well-known decompositions in several contexts are as special examples…
We present the Tetrahedral Compactness Theorem which states that sequences of Riemannian manifolds with a uniform upper bound on volume and diameter that satisfy a uniform tetrahedral property have a subsequence which converges in the…
We analyze spectral properties of the operator $H=\frac{\partial^2}{\partial x^2} -\frac{\partial^2}{\partial y^2} +\omega^2y^2-\lambda y^2V(x y)$ in $L^2(\mathbb{R}^2)$, where $\omega\ne 0$ and $V\ge 0$ is a compactly supported and…
In this article, we present a space-frequency theory for spherical harmonics based on the spectral decomposition of a particular space-frequency operator. The presented theory is closely linked to the theory of ultraspherical polynomials on…
Spectral functions play a central role in the characterization of a wide range of physical systems, including strongly interacting quantum field theories and many-body systems. Their non-perturbative determination from Euclidean correlation…
We pose and solve the analogue of Slepian's time-frequency concentration problem in the two-dimensional plane, for applications in the natural sciences. We determine an orthogonal family of strictly bandlimited functions that are optimally…
We give characterizations for homogeneous and inhomogeneous Besov-Lizorkin-Triebel spaces in terms of continuous local means for the full range of parameters. In particular, we prove characterizations in terms of Lusin functions and spaces…

We study the estimation of quadratic Sobolev-type integral functionals of an unknown density on the unit sphere. The functional is defined through fractional powers of the Laplace--Beltrami operator and provides a global measure of…
We study fine P\'olya-Szeg\H{o} rearrangement inequalities into weighted intervals for Sobolev functions and functions of bounded variation defined on metric measure spaces supporting an isoperimetric inequality. We then specialize this…
Log-Sobolev inequalities (LSIs) upper-bound entropy via a multiple of the Dirichlet form (i.e. norm of a gradient). In this paper we prove a family of entropy-energy inequalities for the binary hypercube which provide a non-linear…
Suppose $D$ is a suitably admissible compact subset of $\mathbb{R}^k$ having a smooth boundary with possible zones of zero curvature. Let \mbox{$R(T,\theta,x)= N(T,\theta,x) - T^{k}\mathrm{vol}(D)$,} where $N(T,\theta,x)$ is the number of…
We establish uncertainty principles on compact Riemannian manifolds without boundary by combining restriction estimates for orthonormal systems with spectral projection bounds for Laplace-Beltrami and Schr\"odinger operators. Our results…
We study nuclear embeddings for function spaces of generalised smoothness defined on a bounded Lipschitz domain $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^d$. This covers, in particular, the well-known situation for spaces of Besov and Triebel-Lizorkin…

Let $(M,g)$ be a compact, smooth Riemannian manifold and $\{u_h\}$ be a sequence of $L^2$-normalized Laplace eigenfunctions that has a localized defect measure $\mu$ in the sense that $ M \setminus \text{supp}(\pi_* \mu) \neq \emptyset$…
Let $ \Omega \subsetneq \mathbf{R}^n\,(n\geq 2)$ be an unbounded convex domain. We study the minimal surface equation in $\Omega$ with boundary value given by the sum of a linear function and a bounded uniformly continuous function in $…
Let $T$ denote a positive operator with spectral radius $1$ on, say, an $L^p$-space. A classical result in infinite dimensional Perron--Frobenius theory says that, if $T$ is irreducible and power bounded, then its peripheral point spectrum…
