An alternative approach to Shnirelman's inequality

Abstract (excerpt)

In this paper we examine the discrete Shnirelman's inequality [Shnirelman A., 1985], which relates the $L^2$-distance of two discrete configurations of a fluid to the $L^1_tL^2_x$-norm of the vector field connecting them. Our proof is inspired by [Shnirelman A., 1985], where it was obtained $α=\frac{1}{64}$ in dimension $ν=2$, while here we get $α\geq\frac{2}{7}$. Moreover we prove that $α\geq\frac{1}{ν+1}$ for any dimension $ν\geq 3$. We point out that, even if this does not improve the bound in the continuous version, where it was proved that $α\geq\frac{2}{4+ν}$, with $ν\geq 3$, our bound i
