Proof of lower bound on variance
It looks to me like the authors just wanted to put in some ridiculous values which "are clearly sufficient" so that they don't have to work out the details.
The choice $\eta = c_1^{1/10}$ should ensur …

Sharp constant for inequality with convex functions
This is a follow up to this question, where the optimal constant was left open.
Let $P \subset \mathbb{R}^n$ be bounded, convex, and open. Let
\begin{equation}
\mathcal{H} := \{f : P \rightarrow \m …

Does this moment inequality hold for any probability measure on the positive real line?
It doesn't hold.
Note that if one chooses $P= \frac{1}{n^2} \delta_n + \frac{n^2-1}{n^2} \delta_x$ with $x$ chosen such that $\mu = 1$, i.e. $x = \frac{n^2-n}{n^2-1}$, then $\mu_3 \sim n$ asymptotical …

Gradient of a convex function on $\mathbb{R}^d$, maximum on hypercubes bounded by values in ...
Let $f : \mathbb{R}^d \rightarrow \mathbb{R}$ be infinitely often continuously differentiable and convex.
For $d = 1$, we know that for any interval $[a, b]$, it holds for $x, y \in [a, b]$ that
