A remark on the radial minimizer of the Ginzburg-Landau functional
2014
Let Omega subset of R-2 be a bounded domain with the same area as the unit disk B-1 and letE-epsilon(u, Omega) = 1/2 integral(Omega) vertical bar del u vertical bar(2) dx + 1/4 epsilon(2) integral(Omega) (vertical bar u vertical bar(2) - 1)(2) dxbe the Ginzburg-Landau functional. Denote by (u) over tilde (epsilon) the radial solution to the Euler equation associated to the problem min {E-epsilon (u, B-1) : u vertical bar(partial derivative B1) = x} and byK = {v = (v(1), v(2)) is an element of H-1 (Omega; R-2) : integral(Omega) v(1) dx = integral(Omega) v(2) dx = 0,integral(Omega) vertical bar v vertical bar(2) dx >= integral(B1) vertical bar(u) over tilde vertical bar(2) dx}.In this note…
Loomis-Whitney inequalities in Heisenberg groups
2021
This note concerns Loomis-Whitney inequalities in Heisenberg groups $\mathbb{H}^n$: $$|K| \lesssim \prod_{j=1}^{2n}|\pi_j(K)|^{\frac{n+1}{n(2n+1)}}, \qquad K \subset \mathbb{H}^n.$$ Here $\pi_{j}$, $j=1,\ldots,2n$, are the vertical Heisenberg projections to the hyperplanes $\{x_j=0\}$, respectively, and $|\cdot|$ refers to a natural Haar measure on either $\mathbb{H}^n$, or one of the hyperplanes. The Loomis-Whitney inequality in the first Heisenberg group $\mathbb{H}^1$ is a direct consequence of known $L^p$ improving properties of the standard Radon transform in $\mathbb{R}^2$. In this note, we show how the Loomis-Whitney inequalities in higher dimensional Heisenberg groups can be deduced…
Semianalyticity of isoperimetric profiles
2009
It is shown that, in dimensions $<8$, isoperimetric profiles of compact real analytic Riemannian manifolds are semi-analytic.
Differentiability of the isoperimetric profile and topology of analytic Riemannian manifolds
2012
Abstract We show that smooth isoperimetric profiles are exceptional for real analytic Riemannian manifolds. For instance, under some extra assumptions, this can happen only on topological spheres. To cite this article: R. Grimaldi et al., C. R. Acad. Sci. Paris, Ser. I 347 (2009).
Harnack estimates for degenerate parabolic equations modeled on the subelliptic $p-$Laplacian
2014
Abstract We establish a Harnack inequality for a class of quasi-linear PDE modeled on the prototype ∂ t u = − ∑ i = 1 m X i ⁎ ( | X u | p − 2 X i u ) where p ⩾ 2 , X = ( X 1 , … , X m ) is a system of Lipschitz vector fields defined on a smooth manifold M endowed with a Borel measure μ, and X i ⁎ denotes the adjoint of X i with respect to μ. Our estimates are derived assuming that (i) the control distance d generated by X induces the same topology on M ; (ii) a doubling condition for the μ-measure of d-metric balls; and (iii) the validity of a Poincare inequality involving X and μ. Our results extend the recent work in [16] , [36] , to a more general setting including the model cases of (1)…
Interpolated measures with bounded density in metric spaces satisfying the curvature-dimension conditions of Sturm
2011
We construct geodesics in the Wasserstein space of probability measure along which all the measures have an upper bound on their density that is determined by the densities of the endpoints of the geodesic. Using these geodesics we show that a local Poincar\'e inequality and the measure contraction property follow from the Ricci curvature bounds defined by Sturm. We also show for a large class of convex functionals that a local Poincar\'e inequality is implied by the weak displacement convexity of the functional.
Gradient estimates for heat kernels and harmonic functions
2020
Let $(X,d,\mu)$ be a doubling metric measure space endowed with a Dirichlet form $\E$ deriving from a "carr\'e du champ". Assume that $(X,d,\mu,\E)$ supports a scale-invariant $L^2$-Poincar\'e inequality. In this article, we study the following properties of harmonic functions, heat kernels and Riesz transforms for $p\in (2,\infty]$: (i) $(G_p)$: $L^p$-estimate for the gradient of the associated heat semigroup; (ii) $(RH_p)$: $L^p$-reverse H\"older inequality for the gradients of harmonic functions; (iii) $(R_p)$: $L^p$-boundedness of the Riesz transform ($p<\infty$); (iv) $(GBE)$: a generalised Bakry-\'Emery condition. We show that, for $p\in (2,\infty)$, (i), (ii) (iii) are equivalent, wh…
Pointwise inequalities for Sobolev functions on generalized cuspidal domains
2022
We establish point wise inequalities for Sobolev functions on a wider class of outward cuspidal domains. It is a generalization of an earlier result by the author and his collaborators
Analysis on free Riemannian path spaces
2005
Abstract The gradient operator is defined on the free path space with reference measure P μ , the law of the Brownian motion on the base manifold with initial distribution μ, where μ has strictly positive density w.r.t. the volume measure. The formula of integration by parts is established for the underlying directional derivatives, which implies the closability of the gradient operator so that it induces a conservative Dirichlet form on the free path space. The log-Sobolev inequality for this Dirichlet form is established and, consequently, the transportation cost inequality is obtained for the associated intrinsic distance.
Geometry and analysis of Dirichlet forms
2012
Let $ \mathscr E $ be a regular, strongly local Dirichlet form on $L^2(X, m)$ and $d$ the associated intrinsic distance. Assume that the topology induced by $d$ coincides with the original topology on $ X$, and that $X$ is compact, satisfies a doubling property and supports a weak $(1, 2)$-Poincar\'e inequality. We first discuss the (non-)coincidence of the intrinsic length structure and the gradient structure. Under the further assumption that the Ricci curvature of $X$ is bounded from below in the sense of Lott-Sturm-Villani, the following are shown to be equivalent: (i) the heat flow of $\mathscr E$ gives the unique gradient flow of $\mathscr U_\infty$, (ii) $\mathscr E$ satisfies the Ne…
