We show that the ball does not maximize the first nonzero Steklov eigenvalue among all contractible domains of fixed boundary volume in $\mathbb{R}^n$ when $n \geq 3$. This is in contrast to the situation when $n=2$, where a result of…

In this paper we maximize a class of functionals under certain constraints. We find sufficient and necessary conditions for these maximizers to exist and be unique. Moreover, we characterize them and discuss the optimality of our results by…

In this paper we shall classify all positive solutions of $ \Delta u =a u^p$ on the upper half space $ H =\Bbb{R}_+^n$ with nonlinear boundary condition $ {\partial u}/{\partial t}= - b u^q $ on $\partial H$ for both positive parameters $a,…

We prove several analogs of Gromov's macroscopic dimension conjecture with extra curvature assumptions. More explicitly, we show that for an open Riemannian $n$-manifold $(M,g)$ of nonnegative Ricci (resp. sectional) curvature, if it has…

We establish explicit data-dependent and symmetric characterizations of the subdifferential of the supremum of convex functions, formulated directly in terms of the underlying data functions. In our approach, both active and non-active…

The eigenvalue problem for radial potentials is considered in a space whose spatial coordinates satisfy the SU(2) Lie algebra. As the consequence, the space has a lattice nature and the maximum value of momentum is bounded from above. The…

Rational functions of total degree $l$ in n variables have a representation in the Bernstein form defined over $n$ dimensional simplex. The range of a rational function is bounded by the smallest and the largest rational Bernstein…

We study the Steklov problem on hypersurfaces of revolution with two boundary components in Euclidean space. In a recent article, the phenomenon of critical length, at which a Steklov eigenvalue is maximized, was exhibited and multiple…

It is proved that, if $(P_n)$ is a sequence of polynomials with complex coefficients having unbounded valences and tending to infinity at sufficiently many points, then there is an infinite dimensional closed subspace of entire functions,…

Let $ex(Q_n, H)$ be the largest number of edges in a subgraph $G$ of a hypercube $Q_n$ such that there is no subgraph of $G$ isomorphic to $H$. We show that for any integer $k\geq 3$, $$ex(Q_n, C_{4k+2})= O(n^{\frac{5}{6} +…

Infinite-dimensional, holomorphic functions have been studied in detail over the last several decades, due to their relevance to parametric differential equations and computational uncertainty quantification. The approximation of such…

We study, in $L^{1}(\R^n;\gamma)$ with respect to the gaussian measure, non-tangential maximal functions and conical square functions associated with the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck operator by developing a set of techniques which allow us, to some…

Let $H^n\cong \Bbb R^{2n}\ltimes \Bbb R$ be the Heisenberg group and let $\mu_t$ be the normalized surface measure for the sphere of radius $t$ in $\Bbb R^{2n}$. Consider the maximal function defined by $Mf=\sup_{t>0} |f*\mu_t|$. We prove…

A frequency $n$-cube $F^n(q;l_0,...,l_{m-1})$ is an $n$-dimensional $q$-by-...-by-$q$ array, where $q = l_0+...+l_{m-1}$, filled by numbers $0,...,m-1$ with the property that each line contains exactly $l_i$ cells with symbol $i$, $i =…

In 1999 Brady constructed the first example of a non-hyperbolic finitely presented subgroup of a hyperbolic group by fibring a non-positively curved cube complex over the circle. We show that his example has Dehn function bounded above by…

In this paper we associate with an infinite family of real extended functions defined on a locally convex space, a sum, called robust sum, which is always well-defined. We also associate with that family of functions a dual pair of problems…

If $\Omega \subset \R^n$ is a smooth bounded domain and $q \in (0, \frac{n}{n-1})$ we consider the Poincare-Sobolev inequality \[ c \Bigl(\int_{\Omega} \abs{u}^\frac{n}{n-1}\Bigr)^{1-\frac{1}{n}} \le \int_{\Omega} \abs{Du}, \] for every $u…

In this paper, we prove an upper bound on the second non-zero Laplacian eigenvalue on $n$-dimensional real projective space. The sharp result for 2-dimensions was shown by Nadirashvili and Penskoi and later by Karpukhin when the metric…

For positive integers $n$ and $r$, we let $Q_n^r$ denote the $r$th power of the $n$-dimensional discrete hypercube graph, i.e., the graph with vertex-set $\{0,1\}^n$, where two 0-1 vectors are joined if they are Hamming distance at most $r$…

We address an eigenvalue problem for the ultrarelativistic (Cauchy) operator $(-\Delta )^{1/2}$, whose action is restricted to functions that vanish beyond the interior of a unit sphere in three spatial dimensions. We provide high accuracy…
