In this paper, we study the extremal problem for the Strichartz inequality for the Schr\"{o}dinger equation on the $\mathbb{R} \times \mathbb{R}^2$; we provide a new proof to the characterization of the extremal functions. The only extremal…
In this paper, we consider the Strichartz inequality for a fourth-order Schr\"odinger equation on $\mathbb{R}^{2+1}$. We show that extremizers exist using a linear profile decomposition which follows from the endpoint version decomposition…
We prove that there exists an extremal function to the Airy Strichartz inequality, $e^{-t\partial_x^3}: L^2(\mathbb{R})\to L^8_{t,x}(\mathbb{R}^2)$ by using the linear profile decomposition. Furthermore we show that, if $f$ is an…
We investigate a class of sharp Fourier extension inequalities on the planar curves $s=|y|^p$, $p>1$. We identify the mechanism responsible for the possible loss of compactness of nonnegative extremizing sequences, and prove that…
We prove a sharpened version of the Strichartz inequality for radial solutions of the Schr\"odinger equation in $\mathbb{R}^2\times \mathbb{R}$. We establish an improved upper bound for functions that nearly extremize the inequality, with a…
For $\alpha\geq 2$, we investigate a class of Fourier extension operators on fractional surfaces $(\xi,|\xi|^\alpha)$. For the corresponding $\alpha$-Strichartz inequalities, by applying the missing mass method and bilinear restriction…
In this note, we show that a pair of Gaussian functions are extremisers to a bilinear Strichartz inequality, and unique up to the symmetry group of the inequality.
We prove the existence of extremals for fractional Moser-Trudinger inequalities in an interval and on the whole real line. In both cases we use blow-up analysis for the corresponding Euler-Lagrange equation, which requires new sharp…
This paper presents the Gaussian subordination framework to generate optimal one-sided approximations to multidimensional real-valued functions by functions of prescribed exponential type. Such extremal problems date back to the works of…
For an appropriate class of convex functions $\phi$, we study the Fourier extension operator on the surface $\{(y, |y|^2+\phi(y)):y\in\mathbb{R}^2\}$ equipped with projection measure. For the corresponding extension inequality, we compute…
The Hausdorff-Young inequality for Euclidean space, in its sharp form due to Beckner, gives an upper bound for the Fourier transform in terms of Lebesgue space norms, with an optimal constant. The extremizers have been identified by Lieb to…
We study a pair of infinite dimensional dynamical systems naturally associated with the study of minimizing/maximizing functions for the Strichartz inequalities for the Schr\"odinger equation. One system is of gradient type and the other…
We generalize the fractional variational problem by allowing the possibility that the lower bound in the fractional derivative does not coincide with the lower bound of the integral that is minimized. Also, for the standard case when these…
Strichartz inequalities are a cornerstone of the modern theory of dispersive PDEs, but their extremizers are known explicitly only in a handful of sharp cases. The non-convexity of the underlying functional makes the problem hard, and to…
Consider the problem {ll} \Delta^2 u= \lambda e^{u} &\text{in} B u=\frac{\partial u}{\partial n}=0 &\text{on}\partial B, where $B$ is the unit ball in $\R^N$ and $\lambda$ is a parameter. Unlike the Gelfand problem the natural candidate…
We prove the existence of functions that extremize the endpoint $L^2$ to $L^4$ adjoint Fourier restriction inequality on the one-sheeted hyperboloid in Euclidean space $\mathbb{R}^4$ and that, taking symmetries into consideration, any…
We determine extremal entire functions for the problem of majorizing, minorizing, and approximating the Gaussian function $e^{-\pi\lambda x^2}$ by entire functions of exponential type. This leads to the solution of analogous extremal…
We study two variations of the classical one-delta problem for entire functions of exponential type, known also as the Carath\'eodory--Fej\'er--Tur\'an problem. The first variation imposes the additional requirement that the function is…
We disprove a conjecture of Foschi, regarding extremizers for the Strichartz inequality with data in the Sobolev space $\dot{H}^{1/2}\times\dot{H}^{-1/2}(\mathbb R^d)$, for even $d\ge 2$. On the other hand, we provide evidence to support…
We study the role of Carath\'eodory extremal functions in the Schur-Agler class generated by a collection of test functions. We show that under certain conditions, $\mathbb{D}$ and $\mathbb{D}^2$ are the only domains where finitely many…
