We study the norm of point evaluation at the origin in the Paley--Wiener space $PW^p$ for $0 < p < \infty$, i. e., we search for the smallest positive constant $C$, called $\mathscr{C}_p$, such that the inequality $|f(0)|^p \leq C…
We study the constant $\mathscr{C}_{d,p}$ defined as the smallest constant $C$ such that $\|P\|_\infty^p \leq C\|P\|_p^p$ holds for every polynomial $P$ of degree $d$, where we consider the $L^p$ norm on the unit circle. We conjecture that…
Let $C(k,p)$ denote the smallest real number such that the estimate $|a_k|\leq C(k,p)\|f\|_{H^p}$ holds for every $f(z)=\sum_{n\geq0}a_n z^n$ in the $H^p$ space of the unit disc. We compute $C(2,p)$ for $0<p<1$ and $C(3,2/3)$, and identify…
Inspired by Clarkson's inequalities for $L^p$ and continuing work from \cite{CR}, this paper computes the optimal constant $C$ in the weak parallelogram laws $$ \|f + g \|^r + C\|f - g\|^r \leq 2^{r-1}\big( \|f\|^r + \|g\|^r \big), $$ $$…
Given an integer $m\geq2$, the Hardy--Littlewood inequality (for real scalars) says that for all $2m\leq p\leq\infty$, there exists a constant $C_{m,p}% ^{\mathbb{R}}\geq1$ such that, for all continuous $m$--linear forms…
Consider the class of zero-mean functions with fixed $L^{\infty}$ and $L^1$ norms and exactly $N\in \mathbb{N}$ nodal points. Which functions $f$ minimize $W_p(f_+,f_-)$, the Wasserstein distance between the measures whose densities are the…
Denote by $\mathbf C_p[\mathfrak M_0]$ the $C_p$-stable closure of the class $\mathfrak M_0$ of all separable metrizable spaces, i.e., $\mathbf C_p[\mathfrak M_0]$ is the smallest class of topological spaces that contains $\mathfrak M_0$…
We continue the work of \cite{TLNT}. Let $E$ be a non-Blaschke subset of the unit disc $\mathbb{D}$ of the complex plane $\mathbb{C}$. Fixed $1\leq p\leq \infty$, let $H^p(\mathbb{D})$ be the Hardy space of holomorphic functions in the disk…
Suppose that f is a Lipschitz function on the real numbers with Lipschitz constant smaller or equal to 1. Let A be a bounded self-adjoint operator on a Hilbert space H. Let 1<p<infinity and suppose that x in B(H) is an operator such that…
For $p\in\lbrack2,\infty]$ a mixed Littlewood-type inequality asserts that there is a constant $C_{(m),p}\geq1$ such that \[ \left( \sum_{i_{1}=1}^{\infty}\left( \sum_{i_{2},...,i_{m}=1}^{\infty }|T(e_{i_{1}},...,e_{i_{m}})|^{2}\right)…
We study the complexity of optimizing highly smooth convex functions. For a positive integer $p$, we want to find an $\epsilon$-approximate minimum of a convex function $f$, given oracle access to the function and its first $p$ derivatives,…
Let x(t) be a non-constant T-periodic solution to the ordinary differential equation x'= f(x) in a Banach space X where f is assumed to be Lipschitz continuous with constant L. Then there exists a constant c such that T L >= c, with c only…
We prove that for any $2<p<\infty$ and for every $n$-dimensional subspace $X$ of $L_p$, represented on $\mathbb R^n$, whose unit ball $B_X$ is in Lewis' position one has the following two-level Gaussian concentration inequality: \[ \mathbb…
Let $1<p<\infty$. We prove that there exists an $\varepsilon_p>0$ such that for each $f\in L^p(\mathbb{R})$, the centered Hardy-Littlewood maximal operator $M$ on $\mathbb{R}$ satisfies the lower bound $\|Mf\|_{L^p(\mathbb{R})}\ge…
Consider averages along the prime integers $ \mathbb P $ given by \begin{equation*} \mathcal{A}_N f (x) = N ^{-1} \sum_{ p \in \mathbb P \;:\; p\leq N} (\log p) f (x-p). \end{equation*} These averages satisfy a uniform scale-free $ \ell…
In this paper, we consider a well-known sparse optimization problem that aims to find a sparse solution of a possibly noisy underdetermined system of linear equations. Mathematically, it can be modeled in a unified manner by minimizing…
The literature on sparse recovery often adopts the $l_p$ "norm" $(p\in[0,1])$ as the penalty to induce sparsity of the signal satisfying an underdetermined linear system. The performance of the corresponding $l_p$ minimization problem can…
In this paper, among other results, we improve the best known estimates for the constants of the generalized Bohnenblust-Hille inequality. These enhancements are then used to improve the best known constants of the Hardy--Littlewood…
