Let $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^d$, $d \geq 2$, be a bounded convex domain and $f\colon \Omega \to \mathbb{R}$ be a non-negative subharmonic function. In this paper we prove the inequality \[ \frac{1}{|\Omega|}\int_\Omega f(x)\,dx \leq…
We consider the solution of $-\Delta u = 1$ on convex domains $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^2$ subject to Dirichlet boundary conditions $u =0$ on $\partial \Omega$. Our main concern is the behavior of $\|\nabla u\|_{L^{\infty}}$, also known as…
Consider $J(\Omega):= \|\nabla u_\Omega\|_\infty/\sqrt{|\Omega|} $ and $J_P(\Omega):= \|\nabla u_\Omega\|_\infty/P(\Omega) $, where $\Omega$ is a planar convex domain, $u_\Omega$ is the torsion function, $P(\Omega)$ is the perimeter of…
Let $\Omega$ be a domain in $R^n$, and let $N=3\cdot 2^{n-1}$. We prove that the trace of the space $C^2(\Omega)$ to the boundary of $\Omega$ has the following finiteness property: A function $f:\partial\Omega\to R$ is the trace to the…
We consider the optimization problem of minimizing $\int_{\Omega}G(|\nabla u|) dx$ in the class of functions $W^{1,G}(\Omega)$, with a constrain on the volume of $\{u>0\}$. The conditions on the function $G$ allow for a different behavior…
We provide a-priori $L^\infty$ bounds for positive solutions to a class of subcritical elliptic problems in bounded $C^2$ domains. Our arguments rely on the moving planes method applied on the Kelvin transform of solutions. We prove that…
Let $\Omega\subseteq \mathbb{R}^{4}$ be a bounded domain with smooth boundary $\partial\Omega$. In this paper, we establish the following sharp form of the trace Adams' inequality in $W^{2,2}(\Omega)$ with zero mean value and zero Neumann…
This paper investigates a class of $p$-obstacle problems with subcritical exponents having the form \begin{align} \mathrm{div}\left( a(x)|\nabla u|^{p-2}\nabla u\right) =m_1\chi_{\{u>0\}}-m_2u^{\lambda-1}\chi_{\{u>0\}} \ \text{in}\…
In this article, we characterize the range of $\alpha$ for which the helical maximal function is bounded from $L^p(|x|^\alpha)$ to itself for $3<p<\infty$. Our result is optimal for $4\leq p<\infty,$ except possibly at end-points.
We prove optimal bounds in L^2(R^2) for the maximal oper- ator obtained by taking a singular integral along N arbitrary directions in the plane. We also give a new proof for the optimal L^2 bound for the single scale Kakeya maximal…
Let $(M,g)$ be a compact, smooth Riemannian manifold and $\{u_h\}$ be a sequence of $L^2$-normalized Laplace eigenfunctions that has a localized defect measure $\mu$ in the sense that $ M \setminus \text{supp}(\pi_* \mu) \neq \emptyset$…
Solutions to $p$-Laplace equations are not, in general, of class $C^2$. The study of Sobolev regularity of the second derivatives is, therefore, a crucial issue. An important contribution by Cianchi and Maz'ya shows that, if the source term…
We consider the problem $$(P_\eps)\qquad \Delta u +\lambda {e^{u}\over\int\limits_{\Omega\setminus B(\xi,\eps)}e^u}=0\ \hbox{in}\ \Omega\setminus B(\xi,\eps),\quad u =0\ \hbox{on}\ \partial\(\Omega\setminus B(\xi,\eps)\), $$ where $\Omega$…
We study the existence, multiplicity, and certain qualitative properties of solutions to the zero Dirichlet problem for the equation $-\Delta_p u = \lambda |u|^{p-2}u + a(x)|u|^{q-2}u$ in a bounded domain $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^N$,…
We prove sharp $L^2$ Fourier restriction inequalities for compact, smooth surfaces in $\mathbb{R}^3$ equipped with the affine surface measure or a power thereof. The results are valid for all smooth surfaces and the bounds are uniform for…
We consider the integration of two-dimensional, piecewise constant functions with respect to copulas. By drawing a connection to linear assignment problems, we can give optimal upper and lower bounds for such integrals and construct the…
Wang and Ye conjectured in [22]: Let $\Omega$ be a regular, bounded and convex domain in $\mathbb{R}^{2}$. There exists a finite constant $C({\Omega})>0$ such that \[ \int_{\Omega}e^{\frac{4\pi u^{2}}{H_{d}(u)}}dxdy\le C(\Omega),\;\;\forall…
Let $M$ be a compact manifold with or without boundary and $H\subset M$ be a smooth, interior hypersurface. We study the restriction of Laplace eigenfunctions solving $(-h^2\Delta_g-1)u=0$ to $H$. In particular, we study the degeneration of…
