Abstract

We prove a Hardy inequality on convex sets, for fractional Sobolev-Slobodecki\u{\i} spaces of order (s,p)(s,p). The proof is based on the fact that in a convex set the distance from the boundary is a superharmonic function, in a suitable sense. The result holds for every 1<p<1<p<\infty and 0<s<10<s<1, with a constant which is stable as ss goes to 11.
