We prove a new logarithmic epiperimetric inequality for multiplicity-one stationary cones with isolated singularity by flowing in the radial direction any given trace along appropriately chosen directions. In contrast to previous…

Let $n$ be an integer with $3 \leq n \leq 7$, and let $g$ be a Riemannian metric on $B^2 \times T^{n-2}$ with scalar curvature at least $-n(n-1)$. We establish an inequality relating the systole of the boundary to the infimum of the mean…

Using the epiperimetric inequalities approach, we study the obstacle problem $\min\{(-\Delta)^su,u-\varphi\}=0,$ for the fractional Laplacian $(-\Delta)^s$ with obstacle $\varphi\in C^{k,\gamma}(\mathbb{R}^n)$, $k\ge2$ and $\gamma\in(0,1)$.…

We give three different proofs of the log-epiperimetric inequality at singular points for the obstacle problem. In the first, direct proof, we write the competitor explicitly; the second proof is also constructive, but this time the…

We show that nonlocal seminorms are strictly decreasing under the continuous Steiner rearrangement. This implies that all solutions to nonlocal equations which arise as critical points of nonlocal energies are radially symmetric and…

We prove local and global energy decay for the wave equation in a wave guide with damping at infinity. More precisely, the absorption index is assumed to converge slowly to a positive constant, and we obtain the diffusive phenomenon typical…

Let $G$ be a graph which satisfies $c^{-1} a^r \le |B(v,r)| \le c a^r$, for some constants $c,a>1$, every vertex $v$ and every radius $r$. We prove that this implies the isoperimetric inequality $|\partial A| \ge C |A| / \log(2+ |A|)$ for…

A new proof of the Wulff-Gage isoperimetric inequality for origin-symmetric convex bodies is provided. As its applications, we prove the uniqueness of log-Minkowski problem and a new proof of the log-Minkowski inequality of curvature…

We establish a Penrose-like inequality for general (not necessarily time-symmetric) initial data sets of the Einstein-Maxwell equations, which satisfy the dominant energy condition. More precisely, it is shown that the ADM energy is bounded…

It is shown that if the initial condition of the Cauchy problem for the diffusion equation on a general infinite countable ultrametric space is spherically symmetric with respect to some point, then this problem has an exact analytical…

We show that the polynomial decay rate of the heat semigroup of the Dirichlet Laplacian in curved planar wedges equals the sum of the usual dimensional decay rate and a multiple of the reciprocal value of the opening angle. To prove the…

We consider the edge-triangle model, a two-parameter family of exponential random graphs in which dependence between edges is introduced through triangles. In the so-called replica symmetric regime, the limiting free energy exists together…

We discuss an analytic form of the dilation inequality for symmetric convex sets in Euclidean spaces, which is a counterpart of analytic aspects of Cheeger's isoperimetric inequality. We show that the dilation inequality for symmetric…

The purpose of this paper is to analyze the isoperimetric inequality for symmetric log-convex probability measures on the line. Using geometric arguments we first re-prove that extremal sets in the isoperimetric inequality are intervals or…

We study the isoperimetric problem for the radially symmetric measures. Applying the spherical symmetrization procedure and variational arguments we reduce this problem to a one-dimensional ODE of the second order. Solving numerically this…

This paper is devoted to logarithmic Hardy-Littlewood-Sobolev inequalities in the two-dimensional Euclidean space, in presence of an external potential with logarithmic growth. The coupling with the potential introduces a new parameter,…

This is a continuation of our previous work 0712.4092. It is well known that various isoperimetric inequalities imply their functional ``counterparts'', but in general this is not an equivalence. We show that under certain convexity…

By using a coupling method, an explicit log-Harnack inequality with local geometry quantities is established for (sub-Markovian) diffusion semigroups on a Riemannian manifold (possibly with boundary). This inequality as well as the…

We prove an energy inequality for nonlocal diffusion operators of the following type, and some of its generalisations: $Lu (x) := \int_{\mathbb{R}^N} K(x,y) (u(y) - u(x)) dy$, where $L$ acts on a real function $u$ defined on $\mathbb{R}^N$,…
