We study the Lorentz spaces $L^{p,s}(R,\mu)$ in the range $1<p<s\le \infty$, for which the standard functional $$ ||f||_{p,s}=(\int_0^\infty (t^{1/p}f^*(t))^s\frac{dt}{t})^{1/s} $$ is only a quasi-norm. We find the optimal constant in the…

Let $\Omega$ be a domain in $\Ri^d$ with boundary $\Gamma$${\!,}$ $d_\Gamma$ the Euclidean distance to the boundary and $H=-\divv(C\,\nabla)$ an elliptic operator with $C=(\,c_{kl}\,)>0$ where $c_{kl}=c_{lk}$ are real, bounded, Lipschitz…

We prove that, for any closed semialgebraic subset $W$ of $\mathbb{R}^n$ and for any positive integer $p$, there exists a Nash function $f:\mathbb{R}^n\setminus W\longrightarrow (0, \infty)$ which is equivalent to the distance function from…

Let $f$ be an integrable log-concave function on ${\mathbb R^n}$ with the center of mass at the origin. We show that $\int\limits_0^{\infty}f(s\theta)ds\ge e^{-n}\int\limits_{-\infty}^{\infty}f(s\theta)ds$ for every $ \theta\in S^{n-1}$,…

The classical hypercontractive inequality for the noise operator on the discrete cube plays a crucial role in many of the fundamental results in the Analysis of Boolean functions, such as the KKL (Kahn-Kalai-Linial) theorem, Friedgut's…

In this paper we analyse functions in Besov spaces $B^{1/q}_{q,\infty}(\mathbb{R}^N,\mathbb{R}^d),q\in (1,\infty)$, and functions in fractional Sobolev spaces $W^{r,q}(\mathbb{R}^N,\mathbb{R}^d),r\in (0,1),q\in [1,\infty)$. We prove for…

We address the question of attainability of the best constant in the following Hardy-Sobolev inequality on a smooth domain $\Omega$ of \mathbb{R}^n: $$ \mu_s (\Omega) := \inf \{\int_{\Omega}| \nabla u|^2 dx; u \in {H_{1,0}^2(\Omega)}…

Sharp restriction theory and the finite field extension problem have both received a great deal of attention in the last two decades, but so far they have not intersected. In this paper, we initiate the study of sharp restriction theory on…

It is well known due to Jarnik that the set Bad of badly approximable numbers is of Hausdorff-dimension one. If Bad(c) denotes the subset of x in Bad for which the approximation constant c > c(x), then Jarnik was in fact more precise and…

Benjamini, Kalifa and Tzalik recently proved that there is an absolute constant $c>0$ such that any graph with at most $c\cdot2^d/d$ edges and no isolated vertices is a minor of the $d$-dimensional hypercube $Q_d$, while there is an…

As shown in [A1], the lowest constants appearing in the weak type (1,1) inequalities satisfied by the centered Hardy-Littlewood maximal operator associated to certain finite radial measures, grow exponentially fast with the dimension. Here…

In this paper, we consider the following Caffarelli-Kohn-Nirenberg (CKN for short) inequality \begin{eqnarray*} \bigg(\int_{{\mathbb R}^d}|x|^{-b(p+1)}|u|^{p+1}dx\bigg)^{\frac{2}{p+1}}\leq S_{a,b}\int_{{\mathbb R}^d}|x|^{-2a}|\nabla u|^2dx,…

Let $I$ and $J$ be two intervals, and let $f, g: I \rightarrow \mathbb{R}$. If for any points $a$ and $b$ in $I$ and any positive numbers $p$ and $q$ such that $p + q = 1$, we have \begin{align} \nonumber p f(a) + q f(b) + g(pa + qb) \in J,…

We prove that for every $n\in \mathbb{N}$ there exists a metric space $(X,d_X)$, an $n$-point subset $S\subseteq X$, a Banach space $(Z,\|\cdot\|_Z)$ and a $1$-Lipschitz function $f:S\to Z$ such that the Lipschitz constant of every function…

Given $p,N>1,$ we prove the sharp $L^p$-log-Sobolev inequality on noncompact metric measure spaces satisfying the ${\sf CD}(0,N)$ condition, where the optimal constant involves the asymptotic volume ratio of the space. This proof is based…

The well-known Zalcman conjecture, which implies the Bieberbach conjecture, states that the coefficients of univalent functions $f(z) = z + \sum\limits_2^{\infty} a_n z^n$ on the unit disk satisfy $|a_n^2 - a_{2n-1}| \le (n-1)^2$ for all $n…

We prove a weak-type (1,1) inequality for square functions of non-commutative martingales that are simultaneously bounded in $L^2$ and $L^1$. More precisely, the following non-commutative analogue of a classical result of Burkholder holds:…

This paper consists of two halves. In the first half of the paper, we consider real-valued functions $f$ whose domain is the vertex set of a graph $G$ and that are Lipschitz with respect to the graph distance. By placing a uniform…

We use an upper bound on Jacobsthal's function to complete a proof of a known density result. Apart from the bound on Jacobsthal's function used here, the proof we are completing uses only elementary methods and Dirichlet's theorem on the…

The logarithmic Sobolev inequality for the Hamming cube {0,1}^n states that for any real-valued function f on the cube holds E(f,f) \ge 2 Ent(f^2), where E(f,f) is the appropriate Dirichlet form (also known as "sum of influences"). We show…
