In this paper we investigate the level sets of extremal Sobolev functions for subcritical exponents p. We conjecture that as p increases the corresponding extremal functions become more peaked, which we can measure by comparing their…

Mond and Pecaric introduced a method to simplify the determination of complementary inequalities for Jensen's inequality by converting it into a single-variable maximization or minimization problem of continuous functions. This principle…

In this work we improve the sharp Hardy inequality in the case $p>n$ by adding an optimal weighted Hoelder semi-norm. To achieve this we first obtain a local improvement. We also obtain a refinement of both the Sobolev inequality for $p>n$…

We determine the sharp constants for the fractional Sobolev inequalities associated with the conformally invariant fractional powers $\mathcal{L}_{s}(0<s<1)$ of the sublaplacian on H-type groups. From these inequalities we derive a sharp…

Let $X$ be a noncomplete metric space satisfying the usual (local) assumptions of a doubling property and a Poincar\'e inequality. We study extensions of Newtonian Sobolev functions to the completion $\widehat{X}$ of $X$ and use them to…

We study a skew product with a curve of neutral points. We show that there exists a unique absolutely continuous invariant probability measure, and that the Birkhoff averages of a sufficiently smooth observable converge to a normal law or a…

We study a class of logarithmic Sobolev inequalities with a general form of the energy functional. The class generalizes various examples of modified logarithmic Sobolev inequalities considered previously in the literature. Refining a…

In this paper we present a survey about analytic properties of polynomials orthogonal with respect to a weighted Sobolev inner product such that the vector of measures has an unbounded support. In particular, we are focused in the study of…

In these notes, we present versions of trace theorems for Sobolev spaces over an interval in the real line, and also a one-dimensional version of the well-known Poincare inequality.

We show how to use Lyapunov functions to obtain functional inequalities which are stronger than Poincar\'e inequality (for instance logarithmic Sobolev or $F$-Sobolev). The case of Poincar\'e and weak Poincar\'e inequalities was studied in…

We establishe an affine Hardy-Littlewood-Sobolev inequality concerning two different functions which is stronger than the classical Hardy-Littlewood-Sobolev inequality. Furthermore, we also prove reverse inequalities for the new…

If one thinks of a Riemannian metric, $g_1$, analogously as the gradient of the corresponding distance function, $d_1$, with respect to a background Riemannian metric, $g_0$, then a natural question arises as to whether a corresponding…

We study sharp weighted Sobolev-type inequalities of the form \[ \int_{0}^{1}|u(x)|\rho(x) \diff x \leqslant \Lambda \Bigl(\int_{0}^{1}|u^{(k)}(x)|^2 \diff x\Bigr)^{1/2}, \qquad u\in H_0^k(0,1), \] where $\rho$ is a non-negative weight. We…

In a previous paper we developed a new method to obtain symmetrization inequalities of Sobolev type for functions in $W_{0}^{1,1}(\Omega)$. In this paper we extend our method to Sobolev functions that do not vanish at the boundary.

This note is concerned with lower tail estimates for product measures. Some improved deviation inequalities are obtained for functions satisfying some regularity and monotonicity assumptions. The arguments are based on semigroup…

This paper studies the Hardy-type inequalities on the intervals (may be infinite) with two weights, either vanishing at two endpoints of the interval or having mean zero. For the first type of inequalities, in terms of new isoperimetric…

We establish Sobolev type inequalities in the noncommutative settings by generalizing monotone metrics in the space of quantum states, such as matrix-valued Beckner inequalities. We also discuss examples such as random transpositions and…
