Rearrangement Free Method for Hardy-Littlewood-Sobolev Inequalities on $\mathbb{S}^n$

For conformal Hardy-Littlewood-Sobolev(HLS) inequalities [22] and reversed conformal HLS inequalities [8] on $\mathbb{S}^n,$ a new proof is given for the attainability of their sharp constants. Classical methods used in [22] and [8] depends on rearrangement inequalities. Here, we use the subcritical approach to construct the extremal sequence and circumvent the blow-up phenomenon by renormalization method. The merit of the method is that it does not rely on rearrangement inequalities.     

Regularity of Viscosity Solutions of the Biased Infinity Laplacian Equation

In this paper, we are interested in the regularity estimates of the nonnegative viscosity super solution of the $β$−biased infinity Laplacian equation $$∆^β_∞u = 0,$$ where $β ∈ \mathbb{R}$ is a fixed constant and $∆^β_∞u := ∆^N_∞u + β|Du|,$ which arises from the random game named biased tug-of-war. By studying directly the $β$−biased infinity Laplacian equation, we construct the appropriate exponential cones as barrier functions to establish a key estimate. Based on this estimate, we obtain the Harnack inequality, Hopf boundary point lemma, Lipschitz estimate and the Liouville property etc.     

An improved Menshov-Rademacher theorem

We study the a.e. convergence of orthogonal series defined over a general measure space. We give sufficient conditions which contain the Menshov-Rademacher theorem as an endpoint case. These conditions turn out to be necessary in the particular case where the measure space is the unit interval and the moduli of the coefficients form a nonincreasing sequence. We also prove a new version of the Menshov-Rademacher inequality.

Generalized Aluthge transformation on -hyponormal operators

We shall introduce a generalized Aluthge transformation on -
hyponormal operators and also, by using the Furuta inequality, we shall give several properties on this generalized Aluthge transformation as further extensions of some results of Aluthge.

     

Confined systems and the modified virial theorem from semiclassical considerations

We show that two simple semiclassical strategies, one based on the Wilson–Sommerfeld rule and the other on the uncertainty principle, yield the exact modified form of the virial theorem for confined systems. An alternative, easier quantum mechanical route to arrive at this result is also sketched. Pilot calculations on confined oscillators reveal decisive trends. © 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Random walks on inhomogeneous lattices

For lattices with two kinds of points (black and white), distributed according to a translation-invariant joint probability distribution, we study statistical properties of the sequence of consecutive colors encountered by a random walker moving through the lattice. The probability distribution for the single steps of the walk is considered to be independent of the colors of the points. Several exact results are presented which are valid in any number of dimensions and for arbitrary probability distributions for the coloring of the points and the steps of the walk. They are used to derive a few general properties of random walks on lattices containing traps.Presented at the Symposium on Random Walks, Gaithersburg, MD, June 1982.     

Bonferroni-type inequalities; Chebyshev-type inequalities for the distributions on [0, n]

An elementary majorant-minorant method to construct the most stringent Bonferroni-type inequalities is presented. These are essentially Chebyshev-type inequalities for discrete probability distributions on the set {0, 1,..., n}, where n is the number of concerned events, and polynomials with specific properties on the set lead to the inequalities. All the known results are proved easily by this method. Further, the inequalities in terms of all the lower moments are completely solved by the method. As examples, the most stringent new inequalities of degrees three and four are obtained. Simpler expressions of Mrgritescu's inequality (1987, Stud. Cerc. Mat., 39, 246–251), improving Galambos' inequality, are given.
