Let $R_{1,2}$ be scalar Riesz transforms on $\mathbb{R}^2$. We prove that the $L^p$ norms of $k$-th powers of the operator $R_2+iR_1$ behave exactly as $|k|^{1-2/p}p$, uniformly in $k\in\mathbb{Z}\backslash\{0\}$, $p\geq2$. This gives a…

We prove fine higher regularity results of Calder\'on-Zygmund-type for equations involving nonlocal operators modelled on the fractional $p$-Laplacian with possibly discontinuous coefficients of VMO-type. We accomplish this by establishing…

We prove that the best so far known constant $c_p=\frac{p^{-p}}{1-p},\, p\in(0,1)$ of a domination inequality, which originates to Lenglart, is sharp. In particular, we solve an open question posed by Revuz and Yor. Motivated by the…

Let $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^n$ be a convex. If $u: \Omega \rightarrow \mathbb{R}$ has mean 0, then we have the classical Poincar\'{e} inequality $$ \|u \|_{L^p} \leq c_p \mbox{diam}(\Omega) \| \nabla u \|_{L^p}$$ with sharp constants…

We present a simple Bellman function proof of a bilinear estimate for elliptic operators in divergence form with real coefficients and with nonnegative potentials. The constants are dimension-free. The $p$-range of applicability of this…

We determine the sharpest constant $C_{p,q,r}$ such that for all complex matrices $X$ and $Y$, and for Schatten $p$-, $q$- and $r$-norms the inequality $$ \|XY-YX\|_p\leq C_{p,q,r}\|X\|_q\|Y\|_r $$ is valid. The main theoretical tool in our…

There are two primary approaches to solving Markov decision problems (MDPs): dynamic programming based on the Bellman equation and linear programming (LP). Dynamic programming methods are the most widely used and form the foundation of both…

Consider the Poincar\'e-Sobolev inequality on the hyperbolic space: for every $n \geq 3$ and $1 < p \leq \frac{n+2}{n-2},$ there exists a best constant $S_{n,p, \lambda}(\mathbb{B}^{n})>0$ such that $$S_{n, p,…

The Mertens' first theorem gives us the following asymptotic formula \begin{equation*} \sum_{\substack{p\leq x\\ p~prime}}\frac{lnp}{p}=lnx+O(1), \end{equation*} and the Mertens' second theorem indicates that there exists a constant…

The best constant in the usual Lp norm inequality for the centered Hardy-Littlewood maximal function on R1 is obtained for the class of all ``peak-shaped'' functions. A positive function on the line is called ``peak-shaped'' if it is…

We obtain sharp estimate on $p$-spectral gaps, or equivalently optimal constant in $p$-Poincar\'e inequalities, for metric measure spaces satisfying measure contraction property. We also prove the rigidity for the sharp $p$-spectral gap.

We present a theory for constructing optimal lower bounds for the discrete half-line $p$-Laplacian of higher order $\ell\in\mathbb{N}$ and general $p>1$. The abstract framework introduces higher-order monotonicity and asymptotic constraints…

We approach the problem of finding the sharp sufficient condition of the boundedness of all two weight Calderon--Zygmund operators. We solve this problem in $L^2$ by writing a formula for a Bellman function of the problem.

The classical discrete $p$-Hardy inequality establishes a sharp relationship between the $\ell^{p}$-norms of a sequence and its discrete derivative. In this paper, we generalize this inequality to discrete derivatives of arbitrary integer…
