Let $\varphi$ be a normal state on the algebra $B(H)$ of all bounded operators on a Hilbert space $H$, $f$ a strictly positive, continuous function on $(0, \infty)$, and let $g$ be a function on $(0, \infty)$ defined by $g(t) =…

We establish a Rademacher type theorem involving Hamiltonians $H(x,p)$ under very weak conditions in both of Euclidean and Carnot-Carath\'eodory spaces. In particular,$H(x,p)$ is assumed to be only measurable in the variable $x$, and to be…

We show that the Aubry sets, the Ma\~{n}\'{e} sets, Mather's barrier functions are the same for two commuting autonomous Tonelli Hamiltonians. We also show the quasi-linearity of $\alpha$-functions from the dynamical point of view and the…

A monotonicity property of Harnack inequality is proved for positive invariant harmonic functions in the unit ball.

This note is concerned with two families of operators related to the fractional Laplacian, the first arising from the Caffarelli-Silvestre extension problem and the second from the fractional heat equation. They both include the Poisson…

The inhomogeneous Khintchine-Groshev Theorem is a classical generalization of Khintchine's Theorem in Diophantine approximation, by approximating points in $\mathbb{R}^m$ by systems of linear forms in $n$ variables. Analogous to the…

The note is dedicated to provide a satisfying and complete answer to the long-standing Gaveau--Brockett open problem. More precisely, we determine the exact formula of the Carnot--Carath\'eodory distance on arbitrary step-two groups. The…

Using methods from symplectic topology, we prove existence of invariant variational measures associated to the flow $\phi_H$ of a Hamiltonian $H\in C^{\infty}(M)$ on a symplectic manifold $(M,\omega)$. These measures coincide with Mather…

Suppose that $f$ satisfies the following: $(1)$ the polyharmonic equation $\Delta^{m}f=\Delta(\Delta^{m-1} f)$$=\varphi_{m}$ $(\varphi_{m}\in \mathcal{C}(\overline{\mathbb{B}^{n}},\mathbb{R}^{n}))$, (2) the boundary conditions…

We investigate the monotonicity of the minimal period of periodic solutions of quasilinear differential equations involving the $p$-Laplace operator. First, the monotonicity of the period is obtained as a function of a Hamiltonian energy in…

In this paper, we consider the existence of solutions of the following nonhomogeneous fractional $p(x,.)$-Laplacian Dirichlet problem: \begin{equation*} \left\{\begin{aligned} \Big(-\Delta_{p(x,.)}\Big)^s u (x)&=f(x, u) &\text { in }&…

The objective of this paper is two-fold. First, we establish new sharp quantitative estimates for Faber-Krahn inequalities on simply connected space forms. We prove that the gap between the first eigenvalue of a given set $\Omega$ and that…

In this paper, in a Carnot group $\mathbb{G}$ of step $2$ and homogeneous dimension $Q$, we prove that almost minimizers of the (horizontal) one-phase $p$-Bernoulli-type functional $$ J_p(u,\Omega):=\int_{\Omega}\Big( |\nabla_{\mathbb{G}}…

We show optimal existence, nonexistence and regularity results for nonnegative solutions to Dirichlet problems as $$ \begin{cases} \displaystyle -\Delta_1 u = g(u)|D u|+h(u)f & \text{in}\;\Omega,\\ u=0 & \text{on}\;\partial\Omega,…

We show that there are functions $f$ in the H\"older class $C^{ { \alpha }}[0,1]$, $1< { \alpha }<2$ such that $f|_{A}$ is not convex, nor concave for any $A { \subset } [0,1]$ with $ { \bar { dim }_M } A> { \alpha }-1$. Our earlier result…
