We prove results on the relaxation and weak* lower semicontinuity of integral functionals of the form \[ \mathcal{F}[u] := \int_{\Omega} f \bigg( \frac{1}{2} \bigl( \nabla u(x) + \nabla u(x)^T \bigr) \bigg)\,\mathrm{d} x, \qquad u : \Omega…

We prove a sharp Poincar\'e inequality for subsets $\Omega$ of (essentially non-branching) metric measure spaces satisfying the Measure Contraction Property $\textrm{MCP}(K,N)$, whose diameter is bounded above by $D$. This is achieved by…

We prove that a trace inequality holds for John domains $\Omega$ satisfying $$ \mathcal H^{n-1}(\partial \Omega\setminus \partial_*\Omega)=0,$$ where $\partial_*\Omega$ denotes the measure-theoretic boundary, together with an upper density…

The Hardy constant of a simply connected domain $\Omega\subset\mathbf{R}^2$ is the best constant for the inequality \[ \int_{\Omega}|\nabla u|^2dx \geq c\int_{\Omega} \frac{u^2}{{\rm dist}(x,\partial\Omega)^2}\, dx \; , \;\;\quad u\in…

The present work is devoted to an extension of the well-known Ehrling inequalities, which quantitatively characterize compact embeddings of function spaces, to more general operators. Firstly, a modified notion of continuity for linear…

We prove quantitative homogenization results for high contrast parabolic equations with random coefficients depending on both space and time. In particular, we prove that under a sufficient decorrelation assumption the homogenization length…

Suppose $g_t$ is a $1$-parameter $\mathrm{Ad}$-diagonalizable subgroup of a Lie group $G$ and $\Gamma < G$ is a lattice. We study the dimension of bounded and divergent orbits of $g_t$ emanating from a class of curves lying on leaves of the…

We establish quantitative homogenization results for the popular log-normal coefficients. Since the coefficients are neither bounded nor uniformly elliptic, standard proofs do not apply directly. Instead, we take inspiration from the…

A Hardy inequality of the form \[\int_{\tilde{\Omega}} |\nabla f({\bf{x}})|^p d {\bf{x}} \ge (\frac{p-1}{p})^p \int_{\tilde{\Omega}} \{1 + a(\delta, \partial \tilde{\Omega})(\x)\}\frac{|f({\bf{x}})|^p}{\delta({\bf{x}})^p} d{\bf{x}}, \] for…

A thin anisotropic elastic plate clamped along its lateral side and also supported at a small area $\theta_{h}$ of one base is considered; the diameter of $\theta_{h}$ is of the same order as the plate relative thickness $h\ll1$. In…

We introduce the nonlocal analogue of the classical free boundary minimal hypersurfaces in an open domain $\Omega$ of $\mathbb{R}^n$ as the (boundaries of) critical points of the fractional perimeter $\operatorname{Per}_s(\cdot,\,\Omega )$…

Let $f$ be an entire function of finite exponential type less than or equal to $\sigma$ which is bounded by $1$ on the real axis and satisfies $f(0) = 1$. Under these assumptions H\"ormander showed that $f$ cannot decay faster than…

Common proofs of the Gagliardo-Nirenberg-Sobolev (GNS) do not provide explicit bounds on the involved constants, unless a sharp constant is being determined. GNS inequalities naturally occur in error estimates for numerical approximations.…

Let $1 < p < \infty$ and let $\Omega$ be an open and bounded set of $\mathbb R^n$. We establish classical Korn inequalities \[ \inf_{\substack{v \in L^p(\Omega)\\\mathcal A v = 0}} \|u - v\|_{W^{k,p}(\Omega)} \le C \| \mathcal A…

The Bergman $p$-analytic content ($1\leq p<\infty $) of a planar domain $\Omega $ measures the $L^{p}(\Omega )$-distance between $\overline{z}$ and the Bergman space $A^{p}(\Omega )$ of holomorphic functions. It has a natural analogue in…

We consider a type of Hardy-Sobolev inequality, whose weight function is singular on the whole domain boundary. We are concerned with the attainability of the best constant of such inequality. In dimension two, we link the inequality to a…

Extending several works, we prove a general Adams-Moser-Trudinger type inequality for the embedding of Bessel-potential spaces $\tilde H^{\frac{n}{p},p}(\Omega)$ into Orlicz spaces for an arbitrary domain $\Omega\subset \mathbb{R}^n$ with…

In this paper, we develop a general homogenization theory for elliptic equations with coefficients that oscillate periodically at infinitely many scales $\varepsilon = (\varepsilon_1, \varepsilon_2, \cdots) \in (0,1)^\infty$, with…

We prove sharp homogeneous improvements to $L^1$ weighted Hardy inequalities involving distance from the boundary. In the case of a smooth domain, we obtain lower and upper estimates for the best constant of the remainder term. These…

We first prove De Giorgi type level estimates for functions in $W^{1,t}(\Omega)$, $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^N$, with $t>N\geq 2$. This augmented integrability enables us to establish a new Harnack type inequality for functions which do not…
