Improved Rellich inequalities for the polyharmonic operator

Abstract

We prove two improved versions of the Hardy-Rellich inequality for the polyharmonic operator (Δ)m(-\Delta)^m involving the distance to the boundary. The first involves an infinite series improvement using logarithmic functions, while the second contains L2L^2 norms and involves as a coefficient the volume of the domain. We find explicit constants for these inequalities, and we prove their optimality in the first case.
