Abstract

Let k,NNk,N \in \mathbb{N} with 1kN1\le k\le N and let Ω=Ω1×Ω2\Omega=\Omega_1 \times \Omega_2 be an open set in Rk×RNk\mathbb{R}^k \times \mathbb{R}^{N-k}. For p(1,)p\in (1,\infty) and q(0,),q \in (0,\infty), we consider the following Hardy-Sobolev type inequality: \begin{align} \int_{\Omega} |g_1(y)g_2(z)| |u(y,z)|^q \, dy \, dz \leq C \left( \int_{\Omega} | \nabla u(y,z) |^p \, dy \, dz \right)^{\frac{q}{p}}, \quad \forall \, u \in \mathcal{C}^1_c(\Omega), \end{align} for some C>0C>0. Depending on the values of N,k,p,q,N,k,p,q, we have identified various pairs of Lorentz spaces, Lorentz-Zygmund spaces and weighted Lebesgue spaces for (g1,g2)(g_1, g_2) so that the above inequality holds. Furthermore, we give a sufficient condition on g1,g2g_1,g_2 so that the best constant in the above inequality is attained in the Beppo-Levi space D01,p(Ω)\mathcal{D}^{1,p}_0(\Omega)-the completion of Cc1(Ω)\mathcal{C}^1_c(\Omega) with respect to uLp(Ω)\|\nabla u\|_{L^p(\Omega)}.
