In this paper, building on the ideas of Brasco and Pratelli (Geom. Funct. Anal., 22 (2012), 107-135), we establish a stability estimate for Bucur and Henrot's inequality (Acta Math., 222 (2019), 337-361). Their inequality asserts that,…

We study sharp frame bounds of Gabor frames with the standard Gaussian window and prove that the square lattice optimizes both the lower and the upper frame bound among all rectangular lattices. This proves a conjecture of Floch, Alard &…

We consider here a problem of finding the sharp estimate for the boundedness of an arbitrary Calder\'on-Zygmund operator in $L^2(w)$, $w\in A_2$. We first prove that for $A_2$ weight $w$ one has that the norm a Calderon--Zygmund operator…

We show that for any $n$-dimensional lattice $\mathcal{L} \subseteq \mathbb{R}^n$, the torus $\mathbb{R}^n/\mathcal{L}$ can be embedded into Hilbert space with $O(\sqrt{n\log n})$ distortion. This improves the previously best known upper…
