We review some topics in the theory of symmetric decreasing rearrangements with a particular focus on Lieb's fundamental contributions. Topics covered include the Brascamp--Lieb--Luttinger theorem, the sharp Young and…
In this paper, we investigate the sharp Hardy-Littlewood-Sobolev inequalities on the Heisenberg group. On one hand, we apply the concentration compactness principle to prove the existence of the maximizers. While the approach here gives a…
A fundamental paper of Elliott Lieb from 1973 has been the basis for much beautiful work on matrix inequalities by many people over the following years. We review a well-connected set of these developments. Some new proofs are provided.
In this paper, we establish a Minkowski-type inequality for weak Lebesgue space, which allows us to obtain a characterization of relative compactness in these spaces. Furthermore, we are the first to investigate the compactness results of…
This paper proves existence of optimizers of the Stein-Weiss inequalities on Carnot groups under some conditions. The adjustment of Lions' concentration compactness principles to Carnot groups plays an important role in our proof. Unlike…
Sharp affine Hardy--Littlewood--Sobolev inequalities for functions on $\mathbb R^n$ are established, which are significantly stronger than (and directly imply) the sharp Hardy--Littlewood--Sobolev inequalities by Lieb and by Beckner, Dou,…
This paper studies the existence of extremal problems for the Hardy-Littlewood-Sobolev inequalities on compact manifolds without boundary via Concentration-Compactness principle.
The paper studies compactness properties of the affine Sobolev inequality of Gaoyong Zhang et al in the case $p=2$, and existence and regularity of related minimizers, in particular, solutions to the nonlocal Dirichlet problems \[…
We prove reversed Hardy-Littlewood-Sobolev inequalities by carefully studying the natural associated free energies with direct methods of calculus of variations. Tightness is obtained by a dyadic argument, which quantifies the relative…
We obtain an improved Sobolev inequality in H^s spaces involving Morrey norms. This refinement yields a direct proof of the existence of optimizers and the compactness up to symmetry of optimizing sequences for the usual Sobolev embedding.…
In this paper, we establish a class of Stein-Weiss type inequality with partial variable weight functions on the upper half space using a weighted Hardy type inequality. Overcoming the impact of weighted functions, the existence of extremal…
Lieb has shown a lower bound on the smallest Dirichlet eigenvalue of the Laplace operator in terms of a generalized inradius. We derive similar bounds for Robin eigenvalues, for eigenvalues of the polyharmonic operator and the sub-Laplacian…
In this paper, we introduce a new method for compactification of a topological space by order topology and through ordinal numbers. The idea behind our approach originates from the definition of a limit point, and then we try to find an…
We establish the existence of finite-rank operators for an interpolation version of the Lieb--Thirring inequality in the mass--supercritical case, thereby extending a result of Hong, Kwon, and Yoon in 2019 to the full parameter regime. Our…
The aim of the paper is to characterize (pre)compactness in the spaces of Lipschitz/H\"older continuous mappings acting from a compact metric space to a normed space. To this end some extensions and generalizations of already existing…
For a closed connected surface with a metric g, we consider the regularized trace of the inverse of the Laplace-Beltrami operator. We minimize this on the class of smooth metrics conformal to g having the same area, and show that the…
The set of Faddeev and Lippmann--Schwinger integral equations for three-body systems involving Coulomb interactions deduced from a ``three-potential'' picture are shown to be compact for all energies and a method of solution is given.
We prove a sharp Lieb-Thirring type inequality for Jacobi matrices, thereby settling a conjecture of Hundertmark and Simon. An interesting feature of the proof is that it employs a technique originally used by Hundertmark-Laptev-Weidl…
In this paper we establish the reversed sharp Hardy-Littlewood-Sobolev (HLS for short) inequality on the upper half space and obtain a new HLS type integral inequality on the upper half space (extending an inequality found by Hang, Wang and…
We present an overview of some results about characterization of compactness in which the concept of approximation scheme has had a role. In particular, we present several results that were proved by the second author, jointly with Luther,…
