Deposits of clastic carbonate-dominated (calciclastic) sedimentary slope systems in the rock record have been identified mostly as linearly-consistent carbonate apron deposits, even though most ancient clastic carbonate slope deposits fit the submarine fan systems better. Calciclastic submarine fans are consequently rarely described and are poorly understood. Subsequently, very little is known especially in mud-dominated calciclastic submarine fan systems. Presented in this study are a sedimentological core and petrographic characterisation of samples from eleven boreholes from the Lower Carboniferous of Bowland Basin (Northwest England) that reveals a >250 m thick calciturbidite complex deposited in a calciclastic submarine fan setting. Seven facies are recognised from core and thin section characterisation and are grouped into three carbonate turbidite sequences. They include: 1) Calciturbidites, comprising mostly of highto low-density, wavy-laminated bioclast-rich facies; 2) low-density densite mudstones which are characterised by planar laminated and unlaminated muddominated facies; and 3) Calcidebrites which are muddy or hyper-concentrated debrisflow deposits occurring as poorly-sorted, chaotic, mud-supported floatstones.

Optimal Transport: A Semi-Discrete Approach

A sharp quantitative version of the anisotropic isoperimetric inequality is established, corresponding to a stability estimate for the Wulff shape of a given surface tension energy. This is achieved by exploiting mass transportation theory, especially Gromov’s proof of the isoperimetric inequality and the Brenier-McCann Theorem. A sharp quantitative version of the Brunn-Minkowski inequality for convex sets is proved as a corollary.

A mass transportation approach to quantitative isoperimetric inequalities

A quantitative sharp form of the classical isoperimetric inequality is proved, thus giving a positive answer to a conjecture by Hall.

The sharp quantitative isoperimetric inequality

A quantitative version of the sharp Sobolev inequality in W (R), 1 < p < n, is established with a remainder term involving the distance from extremals.

The sharp Sobolev inequality in quantitative form

A refined Brunn-Minkowski inequality for convex sets

The first eigenvalue of the p-Laplacian on an open set of given mea- sure attains its minimum value if and only if the set is a ball. We provide a quantitative version of this statement by an argument that can be easily adapted to treat also certain isocapacitary and Cheeger inequalities.
