Abstract
We study the radial extremal function $\varphi(|{\,\cdot\,}|)$ arising in the problem of finding the sharp Nikolskii constant $\mathcal C_d$ in $\mathit{PW}_1^1(\mathbb R^d)$ for arbitrary dimension $d\ge1$. We prove a factorization $\varphi=\Phi_1\Phi_2$, where $\Phi_1$ and $\Phi_2$ are entire functions of exponential type $1/2$ satisfying a functional equation and second-order differential equations with polynomial coefficients. As a result, the original extremal problem is reduced to a one-dimensional spectral problem depending on at most $d+1$ parameters. We also obtain a zeta interpretation of the coefficients of the polynomial appearing in the functional equation and a multiplicative equilibrium condition for the zeros of the extremal function. These results can be used to construct several algorithms for computing $\mathcal C_d$.
Let $\varphi_{d}(|{\,\cdot\,}|)$ be the radial extremal function in the problem for the sharp Nikolskii constant $\mathcal C_d^{-1}=\inf \|f\|_{1}$ over functions $f\in\mathit{PW}\,_{1}^{1}(\mathbb R^{d})$, $f(0)=1$. For every odd dimension, we construct an entire function $\Phi$ of exponential type $1/2$ such that $\v...
We prove the exact asymptotics of the multidimensional normalized $L^1$ Nikolskii constant \[ \mathcal L^*(d)=\Bigl(\frac{\pi}{2}+o(1)\Bigr)2^{-d}, \quad d\to\infty. \] In addition, for each fixed dimension we obtain asymptotics for the positive zeros of the extremal function $\varphi_d$, and determine their limiting d...
We investigate the asymptotic behavior of Jacobi-Pi\~neiro polynomials of degree $2n$ orthogonal on $[0,1]$ with respect to weights $w_j(x) = x^{\alpha_j}(1-x)^{\beta}$, $j=1,2$ where $\alpha_1,\alpha_2, \beta>-1$, and $\alpha_1-\alpha_2 \notin \mathbb{Z}$. These polynomials are characterized by a Riemann-Hilbert probl...
Let $\mu$ be a log-concave probability measure on $\mathbb R^n$ and let $f\colon\mathbb R^n\to\mathbb R^k$ be a polynomial mapping of degree at most $d$. We show that \[ \mu(f\in A) \le C\bigl(\lambda_k(A)\bigr)^{\frac{1}{k(d-1)+1}} \] for every Borel set $A\subset\mathbb R^k$ whenever the image measure $\mu\circ f^{-1...
Let $1<p<n$ and let $v(x)=(1+|x|^{p/(p-1)})^{-(n-p)/p}$ be the standard radial extremal for the sharp Sobolev inequality. We determine all eigenvalues and eigenspaces of the linearized $p$-Laplacian at $v$, defined by its closed quadratic form in $L^2(\mathbb{R}^n,v^{p^*-2} dx)$. After decomposition into spherical harm...
We introduce a family of discrete hyperbolic secant distributions on $\mathbb{Z}$, whose normalizing constants arise from series values calculated by Ramanujan and are expressed in terms of Gau\ss'constant $G=\varpi/\pi$, where $\varpi=\Gamma^2(1/4)/(2\sqrt{2\pi})$ is the lemniscate constant. Using the elliptic lambda-...
