Recently, M. Christ has derived a deep result concerning stability of the Riesz rearrangement inequality. We are interested in the special case of this inequality where two of the sets are equal and the third set is a fixed ball. We show that in this special case, Christ's proof extends with only minor changes to the case where characteristic functions are replaced by functions taking values between zero and one.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2019-09-10T16:12:20.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "special case", "christs proof extends", "riesz rearrangement inequality", "deep result concerning stability", "third set" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 18, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
