We prove an $L^2$-stability estimate for the variance Brascamp-Lieb inequality [J. Funct. Anal. 22 (4), 366-389 (1976)] by bootstrapping the recent $L^1$-stability theorem of Machado and Ramos [arXiv:2511.22636] under an additional…

In this paper, we first prove the Hardy-Sobolev inequality for the Hessian integral by means of a descent gradient flow of certain Hessian functionals. As an application, we study the existence and regularity results of solutions to related…

We give an alternative look at the log-Sobolev inequality (LSI in short) for log-concave measures by semigroup tools. The similar idea yields a heat flow proof of LSI under some quadratic Lyapunov condition for symmetric diffusions on…

We prove an inequality of Bonnesen type for the real projective plane, generalizing Pu's systolic inequality for positively-curved metrics. The remainder term in the inequality, analogous to that in Bonnesen's inequality, is a function of…

Extending results of Harg{\'e} and Hu for the Gaussian measure, we prove inequalities for the covariance Cov$_\mu(f, g)$ where $\mu$ is a general product probability measure on $\mathbb{R}^d$ and $f,g: \mathbb{R}^d \to \mathbb{R}$ satisfy…
