Some applications of the Chambers isoperimetric inequality
2022
In this paper, using the Chambers isoperimetric inequality, we introduce the notion of weighted rearrangement of a function associated to the measure $f dx$, where $f(x)=e^{g(|x|)}$ for $x \in \mathbb{R}^n}$, with $g$ smooth, convex and even. Then we give some of its applications to variational inequalities and PDEs via weighted symmetrization.
Hessian equations and symmetrization
2005
In this paper we state same comparisons results for solutions to Hessian type equations in dimension n> 2. These results involve convenient rearrangements of solutions that preserve suitable cross-sectional measures of their level sets.
Perimeter symmetrization of some dynamic and stationary equations involving the Monge-Ampère operator
2017
We apply the perimeter symmetrization to a two-dimensional pseudo-parabolic dynamic problem associated to the Monge-Ampere operator as well as to the second order elliptic problem which arises after an implicit time discretization of the dynamical equation. Curiously, the dynamical problem corresponds to a third order operator but becomes a singular second order parabolic equation (involving the 3-Laplacian operator) in the class of radially symmetric convex functions. Using symmetrization techniques some quantitative comparison estimates and several qualitative properties of solutions are given.
