Mapping properties of integral averaging operators

H. Heinig, G. Sinnamon (1998)

Studia Mathematica

Characterizations are obtained for those pairs of weight functions u and v for which the operators T f ( x ) = ʃ a ( x ) b ( x ) f ( t ) d t with a and b certain non-negative functions are bounded from L u p ( 0 , ) to L v q ( 0 , ) , 0 < p,q < ∞, p≥ 1. Sufficient conditions are given for T to be bounded on the cones of monotone functions. The results are applied to give a weighted inequality comparing differences and derivatives as well as a weight characterization for the Steklov operator.

Matchings and the variance of Lipschitz functions

Franck Barthe, Neil O'Connell (2009)

ESAIM: Probability and Statistics

We are interested in the rate function of the moderate deviation principle for the two-sample matching problem. This is related to the determination of 1-Lipschitz functions with maximal variance. We give an exact solution for random variables which have normal law, or are uniformly distributed on the Euclidean ball.

Minkowski’s inequality and sums of squares

Péter Frenkel, Péter Horváth (2014)

Open Mathematics

Positive polynomials arising from Muirhead’s inequality, from classical power mean and elementary symmetric mean inequalities and from Minkowski’s inequality can be rewritten as sums of squares.

Modified log-Sobolev inequalities for convex functions on the real line. Sufficient conditions

Radosław Adamczak, Michał Strzelecki (2015)

Studia Mathematica

We provide a mild sufficient condition for a probability measure on the real line to satisfy a modified log-Sobolev inequality for convex functions, interpolating between the classical log-Sobolev inequality and a Bobkov-Ledoux type inequality. As a consequence we obtain dimension-free two-level concentration results for convex functions of independent random variables with sufficiently regular tail decay. We also provide a link between modified log-Sobolev inequalities...
