Sharp Metric Cotype Inequalities for $L_1$ via Nonlinear Cut Smoothing

For every $1\leq p<\infty$ and even integer $m\geq4$, we determine the optimal order of the $p$-moment torus inequality for $L_1$: it is $m^p n^{(1-p/2)_+}+n$, with comparison constants independent of $p,m,n$ after taking $p$-th roots. Consequently, for every $2\leq q<\infty$ and $1\leq p\leq q$, the corresponding metr...
