Anisotropic Improved Leray-Trudinger Inequality

We establish a Leray- Trudinger Type inequality in the anisotropic setting induced by a strongly convex Finsler norm F. The result generalizes classical exponential integrability inequalities for Sobolev functions to the framework of anisotropic Sobolev spaces $W^{1,n}_0(Ω)$, where the standard Euclidean norm is replaced by F and associated polar norm $F^o$. Moreover, in the class of anisotropically radial functions, we obtain the optimal constant in the spirit of Moser's sharp inequality.

The optimal Leray-Trudinger inequality

We fill the gap left open in \cite{MT}, regarding the minimum exponent on the logarithmic correction weight so that the Leray-Trudinger inequality (see \cite{PsSp}) holds. Instead of the representation formula used in \cite{PsSp} and \cite{MT}, our proof uses expansion in spherical harmonics as in \cite{VzZ}.

Two inequalities for the first Robin eigenvalue of the Finsler Laplacian

Let Ωbe a bounded connected, open set of \R^n with Lipschitz boundary. Let F be a suitable norm in \R^n and let Δ_F u be the so-colled Finsler Laplacian. In this paper we prove two inequalities for the first eigenvalue of Δ_F with Robin boundary conditions involving a positive function β. As a consequence of our result we obtain the asymptotic behavior of this eigenvalue when βis a positive constant which goes to zero.

Efficiency and localisation for the first Dirichlet eigenfunction

Bounds are obtained for the efficiency or mean to peak ratio $E(Ω)$ for the first Dirichlet eigenfunction (positive) for open, connected sets $Ω$ with finite measure in Euclidean space $\R^m$. It is shown that (i) localisation implies vanishing efficiency, (ii) a vanishing upper bound for the efficiency implies localisation, (iii) localisation occurs for the first Dirichlet eigenfunctions for a wide class of elongating bounded, open, convex and planar sets, (iv) if $Ω_n$ is any quadrilateral with perpendicular diagonals of lengths $1$ and $n$ respectively, then the sequence of first Dirichlet eigenfunctions localises, and $E(Ω_n)=O\big(n^{-2/3}\log n\big)$. This disproves some claims in the literature. A key technical tool is the Feynman-Kac formula.

Comparison and regularity results for the fractional Laplacian via symmetrization methods

In this paper we establish a comparison result through symmetrization for solutions to some boundary value problems involving the fractional Laplacian. This allows to get sharp estimates for the solutions, obtained by comparing them with solutions of suitable radial problems. Furthermore, we use such result to prove a priori estimates for solutions in terms of the data, providing several regularity results which extend the well known ones for the classical Laplacian.
