In this paper we classify all positive extremal functions to a sharp weighted Sobolev inequality on the upper half space, which involves divergent operators with degeneracy on the boundary. As an application of the results, we can derive a…

Given $n\geq1$ and $r\in[0, 1),$ we consider the set $\mathcal{R}_{n, r}$ of rational functions having at most $n$ poles all outside of $\frac{1}{r}\mathbb{D},$ were $\mathbb{D}$ is the unit disc of the complex plane. We give an…

The current status concerning Hardy-type inequalities with sharp constants is presented and described in a unified convexity way. In particular, it is then natural to replace the Lebesgue measure $dx$ with the Haar measure $dx/x.$ There are…

We consider the strong form of the John-Nirenberg inequality for the $L^2$-based BMO. We construct explicit Bellman functions for the inequality in the continuous and dyadic settings and obtain the sharp constant as well as the precise…

We prove new Bernstein and Markov type inequalities in $L^p$ spaces associated with the normal and the tangential derivatives on the boundary of a general compact $C^\alpha$-domain with $1\leq \alpha\leq 2$. These estimates are also applied…

We show somewhat unexpectedly that whenever a general Bernstein-type maximal inequality holds for partial sums of a sequence of random variables, a maximal form of the inequality is also valid.

We study the smoothness of the Siciak-Zaharjuta extremal function associated to a convex body in $\mathbb{R}^2$. We also prove a formula relating the complex equilibrium measure of a convex body in $\mathbb{R}^n$ to that of its Robin…

Critical Sobolev-type inequality for a class of weighted Sobolev spaces on the entire space is established. We also investigate the existence of extremal function for the associated variational problem. As an application, we prove the…

At the heart of convex geometry lies the observation that the volume of convex bodies behaves as a polynomial. Many geometric inequalities may be expressed in terms of the coefficients of this polynomial, called mixed volumes. Among the…

We establish sharp Adams type inequalities on Sobolev spaces $W^{\alpha, n/\alpha}(X)$ of any fractional order $\alpha< n$ on Riemannian symmetric space $X$ of noncompact type with dimension $n$ and of arbitrary rank. We also establish…

We prove new Alexandrov-Fenchel type inequalities and new affine isoperimetric inequalities for mixed $p$-affine surface areas. We introduce a new class of bodies, the illumination surface bodies, and establish some of their properties. We…

Let $S_N$ be the sum of vector-valued functions defined on a finite Markov chain. An analogue of the Bernstein--Hoeffding inequality is derived for the probability of large deviations of $S_N$ and relates the probability to the spectral gap…

We study the symmetry/asymmetry of functions providing sharp constants in the embedding theorems ${\stackrel{\circ}{W}}\vphantom{W}_2^r(-1,1)\hookrightarrow{\stackrel{\circ}{W}}\vphantom{W}_\infty^k(-1,1)$ for various $r$ and $k$. The sharp…

We present an elementary proof of a conjecture proposed by I. Rasa in 2017 which is an inequality involving Bernstein basis polynomials and convex functions. It was affirmed in positive by A. Komisarski and T. Rajba very recently by the use…

In the paper, by establishing the monotonicity of some functions involving the sine and cosine functions, the authors provide concise proofs of some known inequalities and find some new sharp inequalities involving the Seiffert,…

We prove sharp inequalities for the average number of affine diameters through the points of a convex body $K$ in ${\mathbb R}^n$. These inequalities hold if $K$ is either a polytope or of dimension two. An example shows that the proof…

We extend a general Bernstein-type maximal inequality of Kevei and Mason (2011) for sums of random variables.

We obtain strong converse inequalities for the Bernstein polynomials with explicit asymptotic constants. We give different estimation procedures in the central and non-central regions of [0,1]. The main ingredients in our approach are the…

Gr\"unbaum's inequality gives sharp bounds between the volume of a convex body and its part cut off by a hyperplane through the centroid of the body. We provide a generalization of this inequality for hyperplanes that do not necessarily…

We show that an information-theoretic property of Shannon's entropy power, known as concavity of entropy power, can be fruitfully employed to prove inequalities in sharp form. In particular, the concavity of entropy power implies the…
