The main purpose of this paper is to prove a sharp Sobolev inequality in an exterior of a convex bounded domain. There are two ingredients in the proof: One is the observation of some new isoperimetric inequalities with partial free…
We prove a new vectorial functional inequality of Poincar\'{e}-Beckner type. The inequality may be interpreted as an entropy-entropy production one for a gradient flow in the metric space of Radon measures. The proof uses subtle analysis of…
Global existence and long-time behavior of solutions to a family of nonlinear fourth order evolution equations on $R^d$ are studied. These equations constitute gradient flows for the perturbed information functionals $F[u] = 1/(2\alpha)…

The periodic KdV equation u_t=u_{xxx}+\beta uu_x arises from a Hamiltonian system with infinite-dimensional phase space L^2(T). Bourgain has shown that there exists a Gibbs measure \nu on balls \{\phi :\Vert\Phi\Vert^2_{L^2}\leq N\} in the…
In this paper, we establish a weighted Adams' inequality in some appropriate weighted Sobolev space in $\mathbb{R}^4$. Then we give an improvement inequality by proving the concentration-compactness result. In the last part, we consider an…
In this article, we consider parabolic equations of the type $$\partial_t u(x,t)=\Delta u(x,t) - Bu(x,t) + F(u(x,t))$$ where $u$ is valued in a transverse Hilbert space $Y$ and $B$ is a positive self-adjoint operator on $Y$, allowing a…
In [1], we showed contractivity of reaction-diffusion PDE: \frac{\partial u}{\partial t}({\omega},t) = F(u({\omega},t)) + D\Delta u({\omega},t) with Neumann boundary condition, provided \mu_{p,Q}(J_F (u)) < 0 (uniformly on u), for some 1…
For a function $f$ from the Sobolev space $W^{1,p}(C)$ ($C\subset\mathbb{R}^d$ is an open convex cone), a sharp inequality that estimates $\| f\|_{L_{\infty}}$ via the $L_{p}$-norm of its gradient and a seminorm of the function is obtained.…
We obtain and study new $\Phi$-entropy inequalities for diffusion semigroups, with Poincar\'e or logarithmic Sobolev inequalities as particular cases. From this study we derive the asymptotic behaviour of a large class of linear…
This article is a comparative study on an initial-boundary value problem for a class of semilinear pseudo-parabolic equations with the fractional Caputo derivative, also called the fractional Sobolev-Galpern type equations. The purpose of…
Utilizing a new variational principle that allows dealing with problems beyond the usual locally compactness structure, we study problems with a supercritical nonlinearity of the type $ -\Delta u + u= a(x) f(u)$ in $ \Omega$ with…
Let $\mu$ and $\nu$ be two probability measures on $\R^d$, where $\mu(\d x)= \e^{-V(x)}\d x$ for some $V\in C^1(\R^d)$. Explicit sufficient conditions on $V$ and $\nu$ are presented such that $\mu*\nu$ satisfies the log-Sobolev, Poincar\'e…
