The aim of this note is to give a geometric insight into the classical second order optimality conditions for equality-constrained minimization problem. We show that the Hessian's positivity of the Lagrangian function associated to the…

This thesis deals with shape optimization for contact mechanics. More specifically, the linear elasticity model is considered under the small deformations hypothesis, and the elastic body is assumed to be in contact (sliding or with Tresca…

Let $M=G/K$ be a compact homogeneous space and assume that $G$ and $K$ have many simple factors. We show that the topological condition of having maximal third Betti number, in the sense that $b_3(M)=s-1$ if $G$ has $s$ simple factors, so…

We study the variation of a smooth volume form along extremals of a variational problem with nonholonomic constraints and an action-like Lagrangian. We introduce a new invariant describing the interaction of the volume with the dynamics and…

The paper is devoted to Hardy type inequalities on closed manifolds. By means of various weighted Ricci curvatures, we establish several sharp Hardy type inequalities on closed weighted Riemannian manifolds. Our results complement in…

Consider a compact, orientable, three dimensional Riemannian manifold with boundary with nonnegative scalar curvature. Suppose its boundary is the disjoint union of two pieces: the horizon boundary and the outer boundary, where the horizon…

We improve the well known local gradient estimate of Cheng and Yau in the case when Ricci curvature has a negative lower bound.

In this paper we prove some geometric inequalities for closed surfaces in Euclidean three-space. Motivated by Gage's inequality for convex curves, we first verify that for convex surfaces the Willmore energy is bounded below by some…

The main result of this paper gives a plenary proof on the curvature estimates for $k$ curvature equations with general right hand sides with $n<2k$ based on a concavity inequality. We further give a explicit lower bound of the inequality.

The Ehrhard-Borell inequality is a far-reaching refinement of the classical Brunn-Minkowski inequality that captures the sharp convexity and isoperimetric properties of Gaussian measures. Unlike in the classical Brunn-Minkowski theory, the…

This paper presents a geometric approach to the classical isoperimetric problem by analysing the efficiency of regular polygons in enclosing maximum area for a fixed perimeter. Using efficiency metrics, it proves that regular polygons…

We will show the Cheeger-Colding segment inequality for manifolds with integral Ricci curvature bound. By using this segment inequality, the almost rigidity structure results for integral Ricci curvature will be derived by a similar method…

We define a hybrid between Ollvier and Bakry Emery curvature on graphs with dependence on a variable neighborhood. The hexagonal lattice is non-negatively curved under this new curvature notion. Bonnet-Myers diameter bounds and Lichnerowicz…

Manifold optimization is ubiquitous in computational and applied mathematics, statistics, engineering, machine learning, physics, chemistry and etc. One of the main challenges usually is the non-convexity of the manifold constraints. By…

In this paper we analyze several inexact fast augmented Lagrangian methods for solving linearly constrained convex optimization problems. Mainly, our methods rely on the combination of excessive-gap-like smoothing technique developed in…

The famous Reilly inequality gives an upper bound for the first eigenvalue of the Laplacian defined on compact submanifolds of the Euclidean space in terms of the $L^2$-norm of the mean curvature vector. In this paper, we generalize this…

We give improvements and generalizations of both the classical Hardy inequality and the geometric Hardy inequality based on the divergence theorem. Especially, our improved Hardy type inequality derives both two Hardy type inequalities with…

We shall give a refinement of the arithmetic-geometric mean inequality.

We present a subgradient method for minimizing non-smooth, non-Lipschitz convex optimization problems. The only structure assumed is that a strictly feasible point is known. We extend the work of Renegar [5] by taking a different…

We establish a Harnack inequality for finite connected graphs with non-negative Ricci curvature. As a consequence, we derive an eigenvalue lower bound, extending previous results for Ricci flat graphs.
