We consider a quantity $\kappa(\Omega)$ -- the distance to the origin from the null variety of the Fourier transform of the characteristic function of $\Omega$. We conjecture, firstly, that $\kappa(\Omega)$ is maximized, among all convex…

Let $n \geq 2$, let $\Omega \subset \mathbf{R}^n$ be a bounded domain with smooth boundary, and let $1 \leq p \leq 2$. We prove a reverse-Holder inequality for functions $u$ realizing the best constant in the Sobolev inequality, that is…
