In this article, the authors introduce the Newton-Morrey-Sobolev space on a metric measure space $(\mathscr{X},d,\mu)$. The embedding of the Newton-Morrey-Sobolev space into the H\"older space is obtained if $\mathscr{X}$ supports a weak…

This paper concerns Gibbs measures $\nu$ for some nonlinear PDE over the $D$-torus ${\bf T}^D$. The Hamiltonian $H=\int_{{\bf T}^D} \Vert\nabla u\Vert^2 - \int_{{\bf T}^D} \vert u\vert^p$ has canonical equations with solutions in…

We establish a variant of the log-Sobolev and transport-information inequalities for mixture distributions. If a probability measure $\pi$ can be decomposed into components that individually satisfy such inequalities, then any measure $\mu$…

The main results in the paper are the weighted multipolar Hardy inequalities \begin{equation*} c\int_{\R^N}\sum_{i=1}^n\frac{u^2}{|x-a_i|^2}\,d\mu \leq\int_{\R^N}|\nabla u |^2d\mu+ K\int_{\R^N} u^2d\mu, \end{equation*} in $\R^N$ for any $u$…

We introduce the notion of a weighted lift zonoid and show that, for properly chosen weights v, the ordering condition on a measure \mu, formulated in terms of the weighted lift zonoids of this measure, leads to certain functional…

We study isoperimetric problems with respect to infinite measures on $R ^n$. In the case of the measure $\mu$ defined by $d\mu = e^{c|x|^2} dx$, $c\geq 0$, we prove that, among all sets with given $\mu-$measure, the ball centered at the…

Verifying lower-semicontinuity of integral functionals in the weak topology of Sobolev spaces is a central theme in the calculus of variations. For integral functionals with $p$-growth, quasiconvexity is a necessary condition for weak…

We obtain the inequality $$\int_{\Omega}|\nabla u(x)|^ph(u(x))dx\leq C(n,p)\int_{\Omega} \left( \sqrt{ |\nabla^{(2)} u(x)||{\cal T}_{h,C}(u(x))|}\right)^{p}h(u(x))dx,$$ where $\Omega\subseteq {\bf R}^n$ and $n\ge 2$, $u:\Omega\rightarrow…

We study the dynamics of polynomial-like mappings in several variables. A special case of our results is the following theorem. Let f be a proper holomorphic map from an open set U onto a Stein manifold V, $U\subset\subset V$. Assume f is…

In this paper we deal with polynomials orthogonal with respect to an inner product involving derivatives, that is, a Sobolev inner product. Indeed, we consider Sobolev type polynomials which are orthogonal with respect to $$(f,g)=\int fg…

We study interpolation inequalities between H\"older Integral Probability Metrics (IPMs) in the case where the measures have densities on closed submanifolds. Precisely, it is shown that if two probability measures $\mu$ and $\mu^\star$…

We consider two methods to establish log-Sobolev inequalities for the invariant measure of a diffusion process when its density is not explicit and the curvature is not positive everywhere. In the first approach, based on the Holley-Stroock…

In a statistical mechanics model with unbounded spins, we prove uniqueness of the Gibbs measure under various assumptions on finite volume functional inequalities. We follow the approach of G. Royer (1999) and obtain uniqueness by showing…

We study coercive inequalities on finite dimensional metric spaces with probability measures which do not have volume doubling property. This class of inequalities includes Poincar\'e and Log-Sobolev inequality. Our main result is proof of…

Let K be a self-similar or self-affine set in R^d, let \mu be a self-similar or self-affine measure on it, and let G be the group of affine maps, similitudes, isometries or translations of R^d. Under various assumptions (such as separation…

In a doubling metric measure space $(X,\rho,\mu)$ supporting a Poincar\'e inequality, we give a new characterisation of first-order Sobolev spaces by mean oscillations, and extend previous characterisations of constant functions in terms of…
