We consider a general metric Steiner problem which is of finding a set $\mathcal{S}$ with minimal length such that $\mathcal{S} \cup A$ is connected, where $A$ is a given compact subset of a given complete metric space $X$; a solution is…

A basilar property and a useful tool in the theory of Sobolev spaces is the density of smooth compactly supported functions in the space $W^{k,p}(\R^n)$ (i.e. the functions with weak derivatives of orders $0$ to $k$ in $L^p$). On Riemannian…

The problem of finding the maximum-weight, planar subgraph of a finite, simple graph with nonnegative real edge weights is well known in industrial and electrical engineering, systems biology, sociology and finance. As the problem is known…

Given a set $P$ of $n$ planar points, two axes and a real-valued score function $f()$ on subsets of $P$, the Optimal Planar Box problem consists in finding a box (i.e. axis-aligned rectangle) $H$ maximizing $f(H\cap P)$. We consider the…

Let $P_{2k}$ be a homogeneous polynomial of degree $2k$ and assume that there exist $C>0$, $D>0$ and $\alpha \ge 0$ such that \begin{equation*} \left\langle P_{2k}f_{m},f_{m}\right\rangle_{L^2(\mathbb{S}^{d-1})}\geq \frac{1}{C\left(…

In this paper we are focusing on functional inequalities on compact simple edge spaces. More precisely we address the question whether the classical functional inequalities (Sobolev, Poincar\'e) hold in this setting, and as a by-product of…

In this study, we define double weighted variable exponent Sobolev spaces $W^{1,q(.),p(.)}\left( \Omega ,\vartheta _{0},\vartheta \right) $ with respect to two different weight functions. Also, we investigate the basic properties of this…

We consider the equation - y"(x)+q(x)y(x)=f(x), x\in R and the weighted function space S_p^{(2)}(R,q)=\{y\in AC_{\loc}^{(1)}(R):\|y"-qy\|_p+\|q^{1/p}y\|_p<\infty\}; p\in[1,\infty), f\in L_p(R)$ and $0\le q\in L_1^{\loc}(R)$. We show that…

This is the first of two works concerning the Sobolev calculus on metric measure spaces and its applications. In this work, we focus on several notions of metric Sobolev space and on their equivalence. More precisely, we give a systematic…

The purpose of this short article is to prove some potential estimates that naturally arise in the study of subelliptic Sobolev inequalites for functions. This will allow us to prove a local subelliptic Sobolev inequality with the optimal…

We prove that the energy dissipation property of gradient flows extends to the semigroup maximal operators in various settings. In particular, we show that the vertical maximal function relative to the $p$-parabolic extension does not…

We prove trace theorems for weighted mixed norm Sobolev spaces in the upper-half space where the weight is a power function of the vertical variable. The results show the differentiability order of the trace functions depends only on the…

We introduce a new notion of equivalence of discrete Morse functions on graphs called persistence equivalence. Two functions are considered persistence equivalent if and only if they induce the same persistence diagram. We compare this…
