For any convex set $\Omega \subset {\mathbb R} ^N$, we provide a lower bound for the inverse of the Poincar\'e constant in $W ^ {1, 1}(\Omega)$: it refines an inequality in terms of the diameter due to Acosta-Duran, via the addition of an…

In Euclidean and Hyperbolic space, and the hemisphere in $S^n$, geodesic balls maximize the gap $\lambda_2 - \lambda_1$ of Dirichlet eigenvalues, amoung domains with fixed $\lambda_1$. We prove an upper bound on $\lambda_2 - \lambda_1$ for…
