About 20 years ago, J-P.~Serre announced a bound on the trace of elements of compact Lie groups under the adjoint representation together with related results, provided indications of his proofs, and invited a better proof. This note…
In this paper we prove Poincar\'e inequalities for the Discrete de Rham (DDR) sequence on a general connected polyhedral domain $\Omega$ of $\mathbb{R}^3$. We unify the ideas behind the inequalities for all three operators in the sequence,…
As the classical $(p,q)$-Poincar\'e inequality is known to fail for $0 < p < 1$, we introduce the notion of weighted multilinear Poincar\'e inequality as a natural alternative when $m$-fold products and $1/m < p$ are considered. We prove…
We investigate higher-order geometric $k$-splines for template matching on Lie groups. This is motivated by the need to apply diffeomorphic template matching to a series of images, e.g., in longitudinal studies of Computational Anatomy. Our…
We make explicit Poincar\'{e} duality for the equivariant $K$-theory of equivariant complex projective spaces. The case of the trivial group provides a new approach to the $K$-theory orientation.
We prove, using optimal transport tools, weighted Poincar'e inequalities for log-concave random vectors satisfying some centering conditions. We recover by this way similar results by Klartag and Barthe-Cordero-Erausquin for log-concave…
In order to facilitate the comparison of Riemannian homogeneous spaces of compact Lie groups with noncommutative geometries ("quantizations") that approximate them, we develop here the basic facts concerning equivariant vector bundles and…
Consider a proper geodesic metric space $(X,d)$ equipped with a Borel measure $\mu.$ We establish a family of uniform Poincar\'e inequalities on $(X,d,\mu)$ if it satisfies a local Poincar\'e inequality ($P_{loc}$) and a condition on growth…
We apply the characterization of global hypoellipticity for $G$-invariant operators on homogeneous vector bundles obtained by Cardona and Kowacs [J. Pseudo-Differ. Oper. Appl. 16, 23 (2025)] to obtain a necessary and sufficient condition…
In this paper, we establish a class of generalized Poincar\'{e}-type inequalities for torsional rigidity on the boundary of a convex body of class $C^{2}_{+}$ in $\rnnn$ by using the concavity of related Brunn-Minkowski inequality.
We prove functional inequalities on vector fields on the Euclidean space when it is equipped with a bounded measure that satisfies a Poincar\'e inequality, and study associated self-adjoint operators. The weighted Korn inequality compares…
Given a simple connected compact Lie group $K$ and a maximal torus $T$ of $K$, the Weyl group $W=N_K(T)/T$ naturally acts on $T$. First, we use the combinatorics of the (extended) affine Weyl group to provide an explicit $W$-equivariant…
In this article, we give a trajectorial proof of a kinetic Poincar\'e inequality which plays an important role in the De Giorgi-Nash-Moser theory for kinetic equations. The present work improves a result due to J. Guerand and C. Mouhot [10]…
We prove that for symmetric Markov processes of diffusion type admitting a "carr\'e du champ", the Poincar\'e inequality is equivalent to the exponential convergence of the associated semi-group in one (resp. all) $\L^p(\mu)$ spaces for…
Let $\H= < a,b | a[a,b]=[a,b]a \wedge b[a,b]=[a,b]b>$ be the discrete Heisenberg group, equipped with the left-invariant word metric $d_W(\cdot,\cdot)$ associated to the generating set ${a,b,a^{-1},b^{-1}}$. Letting $B_n= {x\in \H:…
We discuss the local behaviour of vector fields in the plane $\R^2$ around a regular singular point, using recently introduced reduced normal forms, i.e. Poincar\'e and Lie renormalized forms [{\it Lett. Math. Phys.} {\bf 42} (1997),…
We show that a left invariant metric on a compact Lie group $G$ which is obtained by stretching a biinvariant metric in the direction of a subalgebra $\h$ of $\g$ always has some negative sectional curvature, unless the semi-simple part of…
We prove a new type of Poincar\'e inequality on abstract Wiener spaces for a family of probability measures which are absolutely continuous with respect to the reference Gaussian measure. This class of probability measures is characterized…
We propose a new method for obtaining Poincare-type inequalities on arbitrary convex bodies in R^n. Our technique involves a dual version of Bochner's formula and a certain moment map, and it also applies to some non-convex sets. In…
We investigate the validity, as well as the failure, of Sobolev-type inequalities on Cartan-Hadamard manifolds under suitable bounds on the sectional and the Ricci curvatures. We prove that if the sectional curvatures are bounded from above…
