The goal of this note is to have a systematic approach to generating isoperimetric inequalities from two concrete type of PDEs. We call these PDEs Bellman type because a totally analogous equations happen to rule many sharp estimates for singular integrals in harmonic analysis, and such estimates were obtained with the use of Hamilton--Jacobi--Bellman PDE. We show how classical inequalities of Brascamp--Lieb, Prekopa--Leindler, Ehrhard are particular case of this scheme, which allows us to…

Under some assumptions on the vectors a1,..,an 2 R k and the function B and thefunction B : R n ! R the authors find the sharp estimate of the expression Rk B(u1(a1 · x),...,un(an · x))dx in terms of R uj(y)dy,j = 1,...,n.
The Bellman Function Technique in Harmonic Analysis
The Bellman function, a powerful tool originating in control theory, can be used successfully in a large class of difficult harmonic analysis problems and has produced some notable results over the…
Isoperimetric Functional Inequalities via the Maximum Principle: The Exterior Differential Systems Approach
Our goal in this note is to give a unified approach to the solutions of a class of isoperimetric problems by relating them to the exterior differential systems studied by R. Bryant and P. Griffiths.

The concentration of measure phenomenon in Gauss' space states that every $L$-Lipschitz map $f$ on $\mathbb R^n$ satisfies \[ \gamma_{n} \left(\{ x : | f(x) - M_{f} | \geqslant t \} \right) \leqslant…
The Borell–Ehrhard game
A precise description of the convexity of Gaussian measures is provided by sharp Brunn–Minkowski type inequalities due to Ehrhard and Borell. We show that these are manifestations of a game-theoretic…
A Gaussian small deviation inequality for convex functions
Let $Z$ be an $n$-dimensional Gaussian vector and let $f: \mathbb R^n \to \mathbb R$ be a convex function. We show that: $$\mathbb P \left( f(Z) \leq \mathbb E f(Z) -t\sqrt{ {\rm Var} f(Z)} \right)…
A boundary value problem and the Ehrhard inequality
Let $I, J\subset \mathbb{R}$ be closed intervals, and let $H$ be $C^{3}$ smooth real valued function on $I\times J$ with nonvanishing $H_{x}$ and $H_{y}$. Take any fixed positive numbers $a,b$, and…
Improving Beckner's bound via Hermite functions
We obtain an improvement of the Beckner's inequality $\| f\|^{2}_{2} -\|f\|^{2}_{p} \leq (2-p) \| \nabla f\|_{2}^{2}$ valid for $p \in [1,2]$ and the Gaussian measure. Our improvement is essential…
An Interpolation Proof of Ehrhard’s Inequality
We prove Ehrhard’s inequality using interpolation along the Ornstein–Uhlenbeck semi-group. We also provide an improved Jensen inequality for Gaussian variables that might be of independent interest.

TLDR
This work explores the way of solving Monge--Amp\`ere equation by a sort of method of characteristics to find the Bellman function of certain classical Harmonic Analysis problems, and, therefore, of finding full structure of sharp constants and extremal sequences for those problems.
