Let B_n be the number of self-intersections of a symmetric random walk with finite second moments in the integer planar lattice. We obtain moderate deviation estimates for B_n - E B_n and E B_n- B_n, which are given in terms of the best…

The Alexandrov-Fenchel inequality, a far-reaching generalization of the classical isoperimetric inequality to arbitrary mixed volumes, lies at the heart of convex geometry. The characterization of its extremal bodies is a long-standing open…

In this article we prove two versions of the Liapunov center theorem for symmetric potentials. We consider a~second order autonomous system $\ddot q(t)=-\nabla U(q(t))$ in the presence of symmetries of a compact Lie group $\Gamma$ acting…

We solve the $\sigma_2$-Yamabe problem for a non locally conformally flat manifold of dimension $n>8$.

In this note we revisit the classical geometric-arithmetic mean inequality and find a formula for the difference of the arithmetic and the geometric means of given $n\in\mathbb N$ nonnegative numbers $x_1,x_2,\dots,x_n$. The formula yields…

We consider a class of interacting particle systems with values in $[0,\8)^{\zd}$, of which the binary contact path process is an example. For $d \ge 3$ and under a certain square integrability condition on the total number of the…

We consider the problem of finding, for a given quadratic measure of non-uniformity of a set of $N$ points (such as $L_2$ star-discrepancy or diaphony), the asymptotic distribution of this discrepancy for truly random points in the limit…

We discuss several classical and recent proofs of the isoperimetric inequality and the Sobolev inequality.

A classical argument was introduced by Khintchine in 1926 in order to exhibit the existence of totally irrational singular linear forms in two variables. This argument was subsequently revisited and extended by many authors. For instance,…

In this paper we state the weighted Hardy inequality \begin{equation*} c\int_{{\mathbb R}^N}\sum_{i=1}^n \frac{\varphi^2 }{|x-a_i|^2}\, \mu(x)dx\le \int_{{\mathbb R}^N} |\nabla\varphi|^2 \, \mu(x)dx +k \int_{\mathbb{R}^N}\varphi^2 \,…

We consider the focusing inhomogeneous biharmonic nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation in $H^2(\mathbb{R}^N)$, \begin{equation} iu_t + \Delta^2 u - |x|^{-b}|u|^{\alpha}u=0 \end{equation} when $b > 0$ and $N \geq 5$. We first obtain a small data…

We prove the Levin-Ste\v{c}kin inequality using Chebyshev's inequality and symmetrization. Symmetry and slightly modified Chebyshev's inequality are also the key to an elementary proof of Clausing's inequality .

We consider a periodic planar Lorentz process with strictly convex obstacles and finite horizon. This process describes the displacement of a particle moving in the plane with unit speed and with elastic reflection on the obstacles. We call…

Following Smale, we study simple symmetric mechanical systems of $n$ point particles in the plane. In particular, we address the question of the linear and spectral stability properties of relative equilibria, which are special solutions of…

We consider the inhomogeneous biharmonic nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation $$ i u_t +\Delta^2 u+\lambda|x|^{-b}|u|^\alpha u = 0, $$ where $\lambda=\pm 1$ and $\alpha$, $b>0$. In the subctritical case, we improve the global well-posedness…

Let $d_1\leq d_2\leq\ldots\leq d_{n\choose 2}$ denote the distances determined by $n$ points in the plane. It is shown that $\min\sum_i (d_{i+1}-d_i)^2=O(n^{-6/7})$, where the minimum is taken over all point sets with minimal distance $d_1…

Several convenient formulae for the entanglement of two indistinguishable delocalised spin-1/2 particles are introduced. This generalizes the standard formula for concurrence, valid only in the limit of localised or distinguishable…

We establish a family of isoperimetric inequalities for sets that interpolate between intersection bodies and dual Lp centroid bodies. This provides a bridge between the Busemann intersection inequality and the Lutwak--Zhang inequality. The…

We establish a sharp affine $L^p$ Sobolev trace inequality by using the $L_p$ Busemann-Petty centroid inequality. For $p = 2$, our affine version is stronger than the famous sharp $L^2$ Sobolev trace inequality proved independently by…

Often, when we consider the time evolution of a system, we resort to approximation: Instead of calculating the exact orbit, we divide the time interval in question into uniform segments. Chernoff's results in this direction provide us with…
