Manifolds of quasiconformal mappings and the nonlinear Beltrami equation
2014
In this paper we show that the homeomorphic solutions to each nonlinear Beltrami equation $\partial_{\bar{z}} f = \mathcal{H}(z, \partial_{z} f)$ generate a two-dimensional manifold of quasiconformal mappings $\mathcal{F}_{\mathcal{H}} \subset W^{1,2}_{\mathrm{loc}}(\mathbb{C})$. Moreover, we show that under regularity assumptions on $\mathcal{H}$, the manifold $\mathcal{F}_{\mathcal{H}}$ defines the structure function $\mathcal{H}$ uniquely.
Generalized Harnack inequality for semilinear elliptic equations
2015
Abstract This paper is concerned with semilinear equations in divergence form div ( A ( x ) D u ) = f ( u ) , where f : R → [ 0 , ∞ ) is nondecreasing. We introduce a sharp Harnack type inequality for nonnegative solutions which is a quantified version of the condition for strong maximum principle found by Vazquez and Pucci–Serrin in [30] , [24] and is closely related to the classical Keller–Osserman condition [15] , [22] for the existence of entire solutions.
Self-improvement of pointwise Hardy inequality
2019
We prove the self-improvement of a pointwise p p -Hardy inequality. The proof relies on maximal function techniques and a characterization of the inequality by curves.
Korn inequality on irregular domains
2013
Abstract In this paper, we study the weighted Korn inequality on some irregular domains, e.g., s-John domains and domains satisfying quasihyperbolic boundary conditions. Examples regarding sharpness of the Korn inequality on these domains are presented. Moreover, we show that Korn inequalities imply certain Poincare inequality.
Sharp inequalities via truncation
2003
Abstract We show that Sobolev–Poincare and Trudinger inequalities improve to inequalities on Lorentz-type scales provided they are stable under truncations.
Improved Bounds for Hermite–Hadamard Inequalities in Higher Dimensions
2019
Let $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^n$ be a convex domain and let $f:\Omega \rightarrow \mathbb{R}$ be a positive, subharmonic function (i.e. $\Delta f \geq 0$). Then $$ \frac{1}{|\Omega|} \int_{\Omega}{f dx} \leq \frac{c_n}{ |\partial \Omega| } \int_{\partial \Omega}{ f d\sigma},$$ where $c_n \leq 2n^{3/2}$. This inequality was previously only known for convex functions with a much larger constant. We also show that the optimal constant satisfies $c_n \geq n-1$. As a byproduct, we establish a sharp geometric inequality for two convex domains where one contains the other $ \Omega_2 \subset \Omega_1 \subset \mathbb{R}^n$: $$ \frac{|\partial \Omega_1|}{|\Omega_1|} \frac{| \Omega_2|}{|\partial \Ome…
In between the inequalities of Sobolev and Hardy
2015
We establish both sufficient and necessary conditions for the validity of the so-called Hardy-Sobolev inequalities on open sets of the Euclidean space. These inequalities form a natural interpolating scale between the (weighted) Sobolev inequalities and the (weighted) Hardy inequalities. The Assouad dimension of the complement of the open set turns out to play an important role in both sufficient and necessary conditions.
On the interior regularity of weak solutions to the 2-D incompressible Euler equations
2016
We study whether some of the non-physical properties observed for weak solutions of the incompressible Euler equations can be ruled out by studying the vorticity formulation. Our main contribution is in developing an interior regularity method in the spirit of De Giorgi–Nash–Moser, showing that local weak solutions are exponentially integrable, uniformly in time, under minimal integrability conditions. This is a Serrin-type interior regularity result $$\begin{aligned} u \in L_\mathrm{loc}^{2+\varepsilon }(\Omega _T) \implies \mathrm{local\ regularity} \end{aligned}$$ for weak solutions in the energy space $$L_t^\infty L_x^2$$ , satisfying appropriate vorticity estimates. We also obtain impr…
New degeneration of Fay's identity and its application to integrable systems
2011
In this paper, we find a new degenerated version of Fay's trisecant identity; this degeneration corresponds to the limit when the four points entering the trisecant identity coincide pairwise. This degenerated version of Fay's identity is used to construct algebro-geometric solutions to the multi-component nonlinear Schrodinger equation. This identity also leads to an independent derivation of algebro-geometric solutions to the Davey–Stewartson equations previously obtained in [17] in the framework of the Krichever scheme. We also give the condition of smoothness of the obtained solutions.
Evolution problems of Leray-Lions type with nonhomogeneous Neumann boundary conditions in metric random walk spaces
2019
Abstract In this paper we study evolution problems of Leray–Lions type with nonhomogeneous Neumann boundary conditions in the framework of metric random walk spaces. This covers cases with the p -Laplacian operator in weighted discrete graphs and nonlocal operators with nonsingular kernel in R N .
