Baryon Mass Inequalities in Quark Models
Recently conjectured three- (and more-) body mass inequalities are investigated for the quark models of baryons in which it is assumed that baryon masses are the ground-state energies of Schrödinger-type operators with pair potentials V. It is proved that

Preface
Elliott Lieb made seminal contributions to physics and mathematics. The former are partially collected in the volume "The Stability of Matter: From Atoms to Stars" (Selecta of Elliott Lieb), now in its third edition, which contains some of his papers on the structure of matter, such as its stability and the existence of thermodynamic functions. This new volume is a selection of his contributions to analysis, in particular his work on inequalities. There are several reasons for publishing this collection of his work. Many of Lieb's results have a substantial impact on analysis, such as his work with Brascamp that determined the sharp constant in Young's inequality. Another example is his work with various collaborators on rearrangement inequalities, which is an area now fully recognized as a very valuable part of analysis. A second important consideration is the long shelflife ofLieb's work. For example, the paper 'Convex Trace Functions and the Wigner-Yanase-Dyson Conjecture' (No 11
