In this paper we prove sharp Lieb-Thirring (LT) inequalities for the family of shifted Coulomb Hamiltonians. More precisely, we prove the classical LT inequalities with the semi-classical constant for this family of operators in any…
We investigate numerically the optimal constants in Lieb-Thirring inequalities by studying the associated maximization problem. We use a monotonic fixed-point algorithm and a finite element discretization to obtain trial potentials which…
There are a couple of proofs by now for the famous Cwikel--Lieb--Rozenblum (CLR) bound, which is a semiclassical bound on the number of bound states for a Schr\"odinger operator, proven in the 1970s. Of the rather distinct proofs by Cwikel,…
The finite-rank Lieb-Thirring inequality provides an estimate on a Riesz sum of the $N$ lowest eigenvalues of a Schr\"odinger operator $-\Delta-V(x)$ in terms of an $L^p(\mathbb{R}^d)$ norm of the potential $V$. We prove here the existence…
We study problems of the calculus of variations and optimal control within the framework of time scales. Specifically, we obtain Euler-Lagrange type equations for both Lagrangians depending on higher order delta derivatives and…
We consider Hardy-Rellich inequalities and discuss their possible improvement. The procedure is based on decomposition into spherical harmonics, where in addition various new inequalities are obtained (e.g. Rellich-Sobolev inequalities). We…
We give a short proof of the Cwikel-Lieb-Rozenblum (CLR) bound on the number of negative eigenvalues of Schr\"odinger operators. The argument, which is based on work of Rumin, leads to remarkably good constants and applies to the case of…
We derive weighted versions of the Cwikel-Lieb-Rozenblum inequality for the Schr\"odinger operator in two dimensions with a nontrivial Aharonov-Bohm magnetic field. Our bounds capture the optimal dependence on the flux and we identify a…
We present a powerful and easy-to-implement algorithm for solving constrained optimization problems that involve $L_1$/total-variation regularization terms, and both equality and inequality constraints. We discuss the relationship of our…
We approach uncertainty principles of Cowling-Price-Heis-\\enberg-type as a variational principle on modulation spaces. In our discussion we are naturally led to compact localization operators with symbols in modulation spaces. The optimal…
We study dynamic minimization problems of the calculus of variations with generalized Lagrangian functionals that depend on a general linear operator $K$ and defined on bounded-time intervals. Under assumptions of regularity, convexity and…
We explore the optimality of the constants making valid the recently established Little Grothendieck inequality for JB$^*$-triples and JB$^*$-algebras. In our main result we prove that for each bounded linear operator $T$ from a…
In this paper we study some improvements of the classical Hardy inequality. We add to the right hand side of the inequality a term which depends on some Lorentz norms of $u$ or of its gradient and we find the best values of the constants…
Motivated by an optimal-matching problem (Leighton-Shor) and the random-field Ising model (Aizenman-Wehr, Ding-Wirth), we consider a variational problem for graphs in $1+1$ dimension maximizing an action that is the difference of a field…
We consider a variational convex relaxation of a class of optimal partitioning and multiclass labeling problems, which has recently proven quite successful and can be seen as a continuous analogue of Linear Programming (LP) relaxation…
The Bohnenblust-Hille inequality for $m$-linear forms was proven in 1931 as a generalization of the famous 4/3-Littlewood inequality. The optimal constants (or at least their asymptotic behavior as $m$ grows) is unknown, but significant for…
The purpose of this note is to provide a summary of the recent work of the authors on two variations of the pointwise convergence problem for the solutions to the fractional Schr\"odinger equations; convergence along a tangential line and…
In this paper we continue to advance the theory regarding the Riesz fractional gradient in the calculus of variations and fractional partial differential equations begun in an earlier work of the same name. In particular we here establish…

These classical inequalities allow one to estimate the number of negative eigenvalues and the sums $S_{\gamma}=\sum |\lambda_i|^{\gamma}$ for a wide class of Schr\"{o}dinger operators. We provide a detailed proof of these inequalities for…
