We prove an analogue of Gr\"unbaum's inequality on the sphere. Let $n \geq 3$ and let $K$ be a convex body on $\mathbb S^{n-1}\subset \mathbb R^n$ with centroid at $\theta\in \mathbb S^{n-1}$. Then for any $u\in \mathbb S^{n-1}$ that is orthogonal to $\theta$ we have $$\sigma(K\cap u^+) \ge \left(1-\frac{1}{n}\right)^{n-1} \sigma(K),$$ where $\sigma$ denotes the spherical measure. The constant in this inequality is optimal.
We study the central Hardy--Littlewood maximal operator $M_c$ in $\mathbb{R}^n$ for all $n\geq1$, with particular emphasis on the question of its injectivity. More precisely, we consider whether there exist two nonnegative functions $f,g\in L^1(\mathbb{R}^n)$ such that $\|f-g\|_1>0$ and $M_cf=M_cg$. Along the way, we o...
Let $3\leq n\leq7$, $2\leq k\leq n-1$, and $m=n-k-1$. We prove that a complete, connected, noncompact spin manifold $(M^n,g)$ with scalar curvature $R_M\geq k(k-1)$ is isometric to $\mathbb{S}^k\times\mathbb{T}^m_\Lambda\times\mathbb{R}$ if it admits a smooth proper map of nonzero degree to $\mathbb{S}^k\times\mathbb{T...
Let $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^d$, $d\ge2$, be a bounded connected domain with boundary of class $C^{1,\alpha}$, where $0<\alpha<1$. For the adjoint Neumann--Poincar\'e operator $K^*_{\partial\Omega}$, normalised so that its distinguished eigenvalue is $1/2$, let $\lambda_j^+(\Omega)$ denote the upper min--max values on...
We introduce an explicit deterministic collection of $N$ spherical points, $\cP_N\subset\mathbb S^2$, that we call the {\em deterministic Diamond points}. For every $0<\alpha<2$ we prove that there exists a constant $C_\alpha>0$ such that \[ 0\leq \frac{2^{\alpha+1}}{\alpha+2}N^2-\sum_{x,y\in\cP_N}|x-y|^\alpha \le C_\a...

Let $d \ge 2$, let $\alpha_1,\dots, \alpha_n>0$, and put $A = \sum_k \alpha_k$. We determine, up to constants depending only on $d$, the smallest possible $L^1$ norm in the unit ball $\mathbb{B}^d\subset \mathbb{R}^d$ of the Coulomb field generated by charges of strengths $\alpha_k$ placed on the unit sphere $\mathbb{S...

In this note, we prove uniform upper bounds for the volume of the level set $$\{x\in\Omega: c\le f(x)0,$$ for strictly convex and hyperbolic functions $f$ defined on a convex domain $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^n$ ($n\ge 2$). In particular, under a Hessian lower bound $D^2f\ge I_n$, we obtain the sharp volume bound $$|S^{n...
