New estimates for Hermite–Hadamard–Fejer-type inequalities containing Raina fractional integrals

open access: yesBoundary Value Problems
The Hermite–Hadamard–Fejér-type inequality is an effective utensil for examining upper and lower estimations of the integrals of convex functions. In this study, the power mean inequality and Hölder inequality are employed.

Four Talagrand inequalities under the same umbrella [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2019
This note reviews the studies of the last decades emphasizing a common principle based on entropy, logarithmic Sobolev inequality and hypercontractivity, behind four most celebrated inequalities by M. Talagrand: the convex distance inequality, the $\mathrm {L}^1$-$\mathrm {L}^2$ variance inequality, the quadratic transportation cost inequality, and the
