In this paper, we study almost periodic and changing-periodic time scales considered byWang and Agarwal in 2015. Some improvements of almost periodic time scales are made. Furthermore, we introduce a new concept of periodic time scales in which the invariance for a time scale is dependent on an translation direction. Also some new results on periodic and changing-periodic time scales are presented.
In this paper, we consider Poincaré inequalities for non-euclidean metrics on ℝd. These inequalities enable us to derive precise dimension free concentration inequalities for product measures. This technique is appropriate for a large scope of concentration rate: between exponential and gaussian and beyond. We give equivalent functional forms of these Poincaré type inequalities in terms of transportation-cost inequalities and inf-convolution inequalities. Workable sufficient conditions are given...
Equivalence of the spectral gap, exponential integrability of hitting times and Lyapunov conditions is well known. We give here the correspondence (with quantitative results) for reversible diffusion processes. As a consequence, we generalize results of Bobkov in the one dimensional case on the value of the Poincaré constant for log-concave measures to superlinear potentials. Finally, we study various functional inequalities under different hitting times integrability conditions (polynomial,…)....
Our understanding of the interplay between Poincaré inequalities, Sobolev inequalities and the geometry of the underlying space has changed considerably in recent years. These changes have simultaneously provided new insights into the classical theory and allowed much of that theory to be extended to a wide variety of different settings. This paper reviews some of these new results and techniques and concludes with an example on the preservation of Sobolev spaces by the maximal function.[Proceedings...
Using an inverse system of metric graphs as in [3], we provide a simple example of a metric space X that admits Poincaré inequalities for a continuum of mutually singular measures.
Clarke’s generalized derivative is studied as a function on the Banach algebra Lip(X,d) of bounded Lipschitz functions f defined on an open subset X of a normed vector space E. For fixed and fixed the function is continuous and sublinear in . It is shown that all linear functionals in the support set of this continuous sublinear function satisfy Leibniz’s product rule and are thus point derivations. A characterization of the support set in terms of point derivations is given.
