We show that analytic analogs of Brunn-Minkowski-type inequalities fail for functional intrinsic volumes on convex functions. This is demonstrated both through counterexamples and by connecting the problem to results of Colesanti, Hug, and…

We give a new lower bound for the first gap $\lambda_2 - \lambda_1$ of the Dirichlet eigenvalues of the Schr{\"o}dinger operator on a bounded convex domain $\Omega$ in R$^n$ or S$^n$ and greatly sharpens the previous estimates. The new…

We study the connection between the concavity properties of a measure $\nu$ and the convexity properties of the associated relative entropy $D(\cdot \Vert \nu)$ along optimal transport. As a corollary we prove a new dimensional…

Let $\Omega$ be a convex domain in $\mathbb{C}^n$ and $\varphi$ a convex function on $\Omega$. We prove that $\log{K_{\Omega,\varphi}(z)}$ is a convex function (might be identically $-\infty$) on $\Omega$, where $K_{\Omega,\varphi}$ is the…

We study the first Dirichlet eigenfunction of a class of Schr\"odinger operators with a convex potential V on a domain $\Omega$. We find two length scales $L_1$ and $L_2$, and an orientation of the domain $\Omega$, which determine the shape…

Let $\lambda_i(\Omega,V)$ be the $i$th eigenvalue of the Schr\"odinger operator with Dirichlet boundary conditions on a bounded domain $\Omega \subset \R^n$ and with the positive potential $V$. Following the spirit of the…

We prove the existence of the first eigenvalue and an associated eigenfunction with Dirichlet condition for the complex Monge-Amp\`ere operator on a bounded strongly pseudoconvex domain in $\C^n$. We show that the eigenfunction is…

We study the efficiency of the first Dirichlet eigenfunction $u$ on bounded convex domains $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^N$, defined as the ratio between the mean value of $u$ on $\Omega$ and its maximum value. By exploiting improved…

In this paper, we present some operator and eigenvalue inequalities involving operator monotone, doubly concave and doubly convex functions. These inequalities provide some variants of operator Acz\'{e}l inequality and its reverse via…

In this work we prove a Brunn-Minkowski-type inequality in the context of symplectic geometry and discuss some of its applications.

First, we provide an exposition of a theorem due to Slodkowski regarding the largest "eigenvalue" of a convex function. In his work on the Dirichlet problem, Slodkowski introduces a generalized second-order derivative which for $C^2$…

We compare two approaches to Ricci curvature on non-smooth spaces, in the case of the discrete hypercube $\{0,1\}^N$. While the coarse Ricci curvature of the first author readily yields a positive value for curvature, the displacement…

B\"or\"oczky, Lutwak, Yang and Zhang recently proved the log-Brunn-Minkowski inequality which is stronger than the classical Brunn-Minkowski inequality for two origin-symmetric convex bodies in the plane. This paper establishes the…

The eigenvalues of a self-adjoint nxn matrix A can be put into a decreasing sequence $\lambda=(\lambda_1,...,\lambda_n)$, with repetitions according to multiplicity, and the diagonal of A is a point of $R^n$ that bears some relation to…

We consider a class of nonlinear integro-differential operators and prove existence of two principal (half) eigenvalues in bounded smooth domains with exterior Dirichlet condition. We then establish simplicity of the principal…
