In this talk we will discuss a number of well known geometric inequalities such as Poincare and Sobolev inequalities, isoperimetric inequalities, Moser-Trudinger inequalities, Hardy-Littlewood-Sobolev inequalities, etc in various settings including the Euclidean space, Heisenberg group, Carnot-Carathedory spaces, Riemannian manifolds and sub-Riemannian manifolds, etc. Their proofs largely use some basic techniques in harmonic analysis such as representation formulas, fractional integral estimates, covering lemmas, etc. These inequalities in sharp forms are important in geometry and partial differential equations. This talk aims for general audience and therefore technical details will be avoided.
