We consider a minimization problem that combines the Dirichlet energy with the nonlocal perimeter of a level set, namely $$ \int_\Om |\nabla u(x)|^2\,dx+\Per\Big(\{u > 0\},\Om \Big),$$ with $\sigma\in(0,1)$. We obtain regularity results for…
In this paper we establish existence, uniqueness, and boundedness results for an elliptic variational inequality coupled with a nonlinear ordinary differential equation. Under the general framework, we present a new application modelling…
Our main result is a weighted fractional Poincar\'e-Sobolev inequality improving the celebrated estimate by Bourgain-Brezis-Mironescu. This also yields an improvement of the classical Meyers-Ziemer theorem in several ways. The proof is…
Pinsker's widely used inequality upper-bounds the total variation distance $||P-Q||_1$ in terms of the Kullback-Leibler divergence $D(P||Q)$. Although in general a bound in the reverse direction is impossible, in many applications the…
Inspired by a planar partitioning problem involving multiple improper chambers, this article investigates using classical techniques what can be said of the existence, uniqueness, and regularity of minimizers in a certain free-endpoint…
We consider elliptic diffusion processes on $\mathbb R^d$. Assuming that the drift contracts distances outside a compact set, we prove that, at a sufficiently high temperature, the Markov semi-group associated to the process is a…
The fractional Caffarelli-Kohn-Nirenberg inequality states that $$ \int_{\mathbb{R}^n}\int_{\mathbb{R}^n} \frac{(u(x)-u(y))^2}{|x|^\alpha |x-y|^{n+2s} |y|^\alpha} \mathrm{d} x \, \mathrm{d} y \geq \Lambda_{n, s, p, \alpha,\beta} \|u…
In this paper we study the following quantitative isoperimetric inequality in the plane: $\lambda_0^2(\Omega) \leq C \delta(\Omega)$ where $\delta$ is the isoperimetric deficit and $\lambda_0$ is the barycentric asymmetry. Our aim is to…
In this article our main concern is to prove the quantitative unique estimates for the $p$-Laplace equation, $1<p<\infty$, with a locally Lipschitz drift in the plane. To be more precise, let $u\in W^{1,p}_{loc}(\mathbb{R}^2)$ be a…
The extraction of the weak phase $\alpha$ from $B\to\pi\pi$ decays has been controversial from a statistical point of view, as the frequentist vs. bayesian confrontation shows. We analyse several relevant questions which have not deserved…
This short note shows a limiting behavior of integrals of some centered antipersistent stationary infinitely divisible moving averages as the compact integration domain in $d\ge 1$ dimensions extends to the whole positive quadrant…
The phase space of an integrable Hamiltonian system is foliated by invariant tori. For an arbitrary Hamiltonian H such a foliation may not exist, but we can artificially construct one through a parameterised family of surfaces, with the…
Main results and techniques of the fractional calculus of variations are surveyed. We consider variational problems containing Caputo derivatives and study them using both indirect and direct methods. In particular, we provide necessary…
In this work, we study the two following minimization problems for $r \in \mathbb{N}^{*}$, \begin{equation*} \begin{array}{ccc} S_{0,r}(\varphi)=\displaystyle\inf_{u\in H_{0}^{r}(\Omega)\,|u+\varphi\|_{L^{2^{*r}}}=1}\|u\|_{r}^{2}&…
Pisier's inequality is central in the study of normed spaces and has important applications in geometry. We provide an elementary proof of this inequality, which avoids some non-constructive steps from previous proofs. Our goal is to make…
This paper develops the so-called Weighted Energy-Dissipation (WED) variational approach for the analysis of gradient flows in metric spaces. This focuses on the minimization of the parameter-dependent global-in-time functional of…
This work is devoted to the study of a Liouville comparison principle for entire weak solutions of quasilinear differential inequalities of the form $A(u) + |u|^{q-1}u \leq A(v) + |v|^{q-1}v$ on ${\Bbb R}^n$, where $n\geq 1$, $q$ is…
We study weak solutions and minimizers $u$ of the non-autonomous problems $\operatorname{div} A(x, Du)=0$ and $\min_v \int_\Omega F(x,Dv)\,dx$ with quasi-isotropic $(p, q)$-growth. We consider the case that $u$ is bounded, H\"older…
We consider a quasilinear equation given in the half-space, i.e. a so called boundary reaction problem. Our concerns are a geometric Poincar\'e inequality and, as a byproduct of this inequality, a result on the symmetry of low-dimensional…
Let $G$ be a countable discrete group with an orthogonal representation $\alpha$ on a real Hilbert space $H$. We prove $L_p$ Poincar\'e inequalities for the group measure space $L_\infty(\Omega_H,\gamma)\rtimes G$, where both the group…
