On the 1+2 dimensional lattice, we consider a directed polymer in a random Gaussian environment that is independent in time and correlated in space. The spatial correlation is supposed to decay as $(\log |x|)^a /|x|^{2}$, $a>-1$, where the…

Different estimates for the norm of the self-commutator of a Hilbert space operator are proposed. Particularly, this norm is bounded from above by twice of the area of the numerical range of the operator. An isoperimetric-type inequality is…

Let $(M^n,g)$ be simply connected, complete, with non-positive sectional curvatures, and $\Sigma$ a 2-dimensional closed integral current (or flat chain mod 2) with compact support in $M$. Let $S$ be an area minimising integral 3-current…

Let $A$ be a positive semidefinite matrix, block partitioned as $$ A=\twomat{B}{C}{C^*}{D}, $$ where $B$ and $D$ are square blocks. We prove the following inequalities for the Schatten $q$-norm $||.||_q$, which are sharp when the blocks are…

In this paper, we establish an exponential inequality for U-statistics of i.i.d. data, varying kernel and taking values in a separable Hilbert space. The bound are expressed as a sum of an exponential term plus an other one involving the…

We consider the imbedding inequality || f ||_{L^r(R^d)} <= S_{r,n,d} || f ||_{H^{n}(R^d)}; H^{n}(R^d) is the Sobolev space (or Bessel potential space) of L^2 type and (integer or fractional) order n. We write down upper bounds for the…

We show that the $\beta$--numbers of intrinsic Lipschitz graphs of Heisenberg groups $\mathbb{H}_n$ are locally Carleson integrable when $n \geq 2$. Our technique relies on a recent Dorronsoro inequality \cite{FO} as well as a novel slicing…

We solve a class of isoperimetric problems on $\mathbb{R}^2_+ :=\left\{ (x,y)\in \mathbb{R} ^2 : y>0 \right\}$ with respect to monomial weights. Let $\alpha $ and $\beta $ be real numbers such that $0\le \alpha <\beta+1$, $\beta\le 2…

We prove an isoperimetric inequality for probability measures $\mu$ on $\mathbb{R}^n$ with density proportional to $\exp(-\phi(\lambda | x|))$, where $|x|$ is the euclidean norm on $\mathbb{R}^n$ and $\phi$ is a non-decreasing convex…

We prove a local contraction property for holomorphic functions that are nearly constant, relating weighted Bergman spaces $A^p_\alpha(\B_n)$ and $A^q_\beta(\B_n)$. Our approach converts geometric information on weighted superlevel sets…

Motivated by the vacuum selection problem of string/M theory, we study a new geometric invariant of a positive Hermitian line bundle $(L, h)\to M$ over a compact K\"ahler manifold: the expected distribution of critical points of a Gaussian…

We present lower estimates for the best constant appearing in the weak $(1,1)$ maximal inequality in the space $(\R^n,\|\cdot\|_{\iy})$. We show that this constant grows to infinity faster than $(\log n)^{1-o(1)}$ when $n$ tends to…

We show that if the normalized partition function $W^{\beta}_n$ of the directed polymer model on $\mathbb Z^d$ converges to zero, then it does so exponentially fast. This implies that there exists a critical value $\beta_c$ for the inverse…
