Limiting Korn-Maxwell-Sobolev inequalities for general incompatibilities

Analysis of PDEs 2024-05-20 v1

Abstract

We give sharp conditions for the limiting Korn-Maxwell-Sobolev inequalities \begin{align*} \lVert P\rVert_{{\dot{W}}{^{k-1,\frac{n}{n-1}}}(\mathbb{R}^n)}\le c\big(\lVert\mathscr{A}[P]\rVert_{{\dot{W}}{^{k-1,\frac{n}{n-1}}}(\mathbb{R}^n)}+\lVert\mathbb{B}P\rVert_{L^{1}(\mathbb{R}^n)}\big) \end{align*} to hold for all PCc(Rn;V)P\in C_{c}^{\infty}(\mathbb{R}^{n};V), where A\mathscr{A} is a linear map between finite dimensional vector spaces and B\mathbb{B} is a kk-th order, linear and homogeneous constant-coefficient differential operator. By the appearance of the L1L^{1}-norm of the differential expression BP\mathbb{B}P on the right-hand side, such inequalities generalise previously known estimates to the borderline case p=1p=1, and thereby answer an open problem due to M\"{u}ller, Neff and the second author (Calc. Var. PDE, 2021) in the affirmative.
