The paper “A sharp Poincaré inequality for functions in W(1,I)“, co-authored by Jonathan Bevan, Jonathan Deane, and Sergey Zelik, has been published in the Proceedings of the American Mathematical Society. The novelty is the proof is in the space of functions W(1,I)=W^{1,\infty}(\Omega,R) and it is sharp. The domain Omega is bounded and convex. A link […]

The paper “A note on optimal transport and Monge-Ampère geometry“, with sole author Roberto D’Onofrio, has been published in the Journal of Geometry and Physics (link to published version). In the paper he identifies a novel connection between a recently introduced pseudo-Riemannian framework for optimal mass transport and the geometry of Monge-Ampère equations. The theory […]
