Moment generating function of random unit vector
Let $X$ be uniformly distributed on the unit sphere $S^{n-1}$. Is there any result concerning the calculation or bound (particularly lower bound) of
$$\mathbb{E}[\exp(X^Tv)]$$
for any $v$?

Upper bound of a ratio of integrals
I'm wondering how to upper bound the following ratio of integrals:
$$\frac{\int_{\Delta_a}(\prod_{i=1}^n\lambda_i)^{p-1}\prod_{i<j}|\lambda_i-\lambda_j|}{\int_{\Delta_b}(\prod_{i=1}^n\lambda_i)^{p-...

The discrete Hardy-Littlewood-Sobolev inequality
Let $p>1$, $q>1$, $0<\lambda<1$ be such that
$\frac{1}{p}+\frac{1}{q}+\lambda=2$. Suppose that
$(a_{k})\in \ell^{p}(\mathbb{Z})$ and $(b_{k})\in \ell^{q}(\mathbb{Z})$.
It is known ([1,2,3]...

Is there a uniform upper bound for this oscillatory integral?
I am wondering whether the following uniform upper bound holds:
$|\int_a^{2a}\frac1t\sin(N b^2t)\exp(iNbt^2)dt|\le Cab^2,$
where $0<a<b<1$, $N>N_0(a,b)\gg1$, and $C$ is a constant ...

Applications of Hardy's inequality
Every so often I would encounter Hardy's inequality:
Theorem 1 (Hardy's inequality). If $p>1$, $a_n \geq 0$, and $A_n=a_1+a_2+\cdots+a_n$, then
$$\sum_{n=1}^\infty \left(\frac{A_n}{n}\right)^p ...
