Asymptotic flatness of Morrey extremals

Abstract

We study the limiting behavior as x|x|\rightarrow \infty of extremal functions uu for Morrey's inequality on Rn\mathbb{R}^n. In particular, we compute the limit of u(x)u(x) as x|x|\rightarrow \infty and show xDu(x)|x||Du(x)| tends to 00. To this end, we exploit the fact that extremals are uniformly bounded and that they each satisfy a PDE of the form Δpu=c(δx0δy0)-\Delta_pu=c(\delta_{x_0}-\delta_{y_0}) for some cRc\in \mathbb{R} and distinct x0,y0Rnx_0,y_0\in \mathbb{R}^n. More generally, we explain how to quantitatively deduce the asymptotic flatness of bounded pp-harmonic functions on exterior domains of Rn\mathbb{R}^n for p>np>n.
