The rearrangement inequalities of Hardy-Littlewood and Riesz say that certain integrals involving products of two or three functions increase under symmetric decreasing rearrangement. It is known that these inequalities extend to integrands of the form F(u_1,..., u_m) where F is supermodular; in particular, they hold when F has nonnegative mixed second derivatives. This paper concerns the regularity assumptions on F and the equality cases. It is shown here that extended Hardy-Littlewood and Riesz inequalities are valid for supermodular integrands that are just Borel measurable. Under some nondegeneracy conditions, all equality cases are equivalent to radially decreasing functions under transformations that leave the functionals invariant (i.e., measure-preserving maps for the Hardy-Littlewood inequality, translations for the Riesz inequality). The proofs rely on monotone changes of variables in the spirit of Sklar's theorem.

We study the asymptotic behavior of the persistent homology of i.i.d. samples from a @math -Ahlfors regular measure --- one that satisfies uniform bounds of the form for some @math all @math in the support of @math and all sufficiently small @math Our main result is that if @math are sampled from a @math -Ahlfors regular measure on @math and @math denotes the @math -weight of the minimal spanning tree on @math [E_ (x_1, ,x_n )= e T (x_1, ,x_n ) |e|^ ] then [E_ (x_1, ,x_n ) n^ d- d ] with high probability as @math We also prove theorems about the asymptotic behavior of weighted sums defined in terms of higher-dimensional persistent homology. As an application, we exhibit hypotheses under which the fractal dimension of a measure can be computed from the persistent homology of i.i.d. samples from that space, in a manner similar to that proposed in the experimental work of (2018). We show that the Goemans-Linial semidefinite relaxation of the Sparsest Cut problem with general demands has integrality gap @math . This is achieved by exhibiting @math -point metric spaces of negative type whose @math distortion is @math . Our result is based on quantitative bounds on the rate of degeneration of Lipschitz maps from the Heisenberg group to @math when restricted to cosets of the center. Let @math be a compact Riemannian submanifold of @math of dimension @math and let @math be a sample of i.i.d. points in @math with uniform distribution. We study the random operators @math where @math is the Gaussian kernel and @math as @math Such operators can be viewed as graph laplacians (for a weighted graph with vertices at data points) and they have been used in the machine learning literature to approximate the Laplace-Beltrami operator of @math @math (divided by the Riemannian volume of the manifold). We prove several results on a.s. and distributional convergence of the deviations @math for smooth functions @math both pointwise and uniformly in @math and @math (here @math and @math is the Riemannian volume measure). In particular, we show that for any class @math of three times differentiable functions on @math with uniformly bounded derivatives @math as soon as @math and also prove asymptotic normality of @math (functional CLT) for a fixed @math and uniformly in @math We study the maximum of a Gaussian field on @math ( @math ) whose correlations decay logarithmically with the distance. Kahane Kah85 introduced this model to construct mathematically the Gaussian multiplicative chaos in the subcritical case. Duplantier, Rhodes, Sheffield and Vargas DRSV12a DRSV12b extended Kahane's construction to the critical case and established the KPZ formula at criticality. Moreover, they made in DRSV12a several conjectures on the supercritical case and on the maximum of this Gaussian field. In this paper we resolve Conjecture 12 in DRSV12a : we establish the convergence in law of the maximum and show that the limit law is the Gumbel distribution convoluted by the limit of the derivative martingale.
