For a given domain $D$ in the extended complex plane $\bar{\mathbb C}$ with an accessible boundary point $z_0 \in \partial D$ and for a subset $E \subset {D},$ relatively closed w.r.t. $D,$ we define the relative capacity $\rc E$ as a…

Let $q(x)$ and $p(x)$ denote density functions on the $n$-dimensional Euclidean space, and let $p_i(\cdot|y_1,..., y_{i-1},y_{i+1},..., y_n)$ and $Q_i(\cdot|x_1,..., x_{i-1},x_{i+1},..., x_n)$ denote their local specifications. For a class…

In this paper we generalize a key result relating singular limits of certain relative entropies with index in the setting of conformal nets, which has played an important role recently in the mathematical theory of relative entropies in the…

Let $L^{m,p}(\R^n)$ be the Sobolev space of functions with $m^{th}$ derivatives lying in $L^p(\R^n)$. Assume that $n< p < \infty$. For $E \subset \R^n$, let $L^{m,p}(E)$ denote the space of restrictions to $E$ of functions in…

Let $\Omega\subset\mathbb{C}$ be an open set. We show that $\overline{\partial}$ has closed range in $L^{2}(\Omega)$ if and only if the Poincar\'e-Dirichlet inequality holds. Moreover, we give necessary and sufficient potential-theoretic…

We study comprehensively local properties of functions in complex Sobolev spaces on a bounded open subset of $\mathbb{C}^n$. The main tool is the corresponding functional capacity for the space which is inspired by the global one due to…

In this paper, we consider Dirichlet boundary value problem involving the anisotropic $p(x)$-Laplacian, where $p(x)= (p_1(x), ..., p_n(x))$, with $p_i(x)> 1$ in $\overline{\Omega}$. Using the topological degree constructed by Berkovits, we…

Let f be a function meromorphic in a neighborhood of infinity. The central problem in the present investigation is to find the largest domain D \subset C to which the function f can be extended in a meromorphic and singlevalued manner.…

This is a potential theoretic study of balayage (sweeping) of a positive Radon measure on a locally compact (Hausdorff) space onto a closed, or more generally a quasiclosed set (that is, a set which can be approximated in outer capacity by…

In this paper we analyze the capacitary potential due to a charged body in order to deduce sharp analytic and geometric inequalities, whose equality cases are saturated by domains with spherical symmetry. In particular, for a regular…

We show that in a bounded simply connected planar domain $\Omega$ the smooth Sobolev functions $W^{k,\infty}(\Omega)\cap C^\infty(\Omega)$ are dense in the homogeneous Sobolev spaces $L^{k,p}(\Omega)$.

In this paper we prove the lower semicontinuity of a Neohookean-type energy for a model of Nonlinear Elasticity that allows, for the first time, for $p<n-1$. Our class of admissible deformations consists of weak limits of Sobolev $W^{1,p}$…

Let $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^n$, $n\geq 2$, be a bounded, open and convex set and let $f$ be a positive and non-increasing function depending only on the distance from the boundary of $\Omega$. We consider the $p-$torsional rigidity…

Let $(\Omega,\Sigma,\mu)$ be a measure space and $1< p < +\infty$. In this paper we show that, under quite general conditions, the set $L_{p}(\Omega) - \bigcup\limits_{1 \leq q < p}L_{q}(\Omega)$ is maximal spaceable, that is, it contains…

We investigate the form of the closure of the smooth, compactly supported functions $C_{c}^{\infty}(\Omega)$ in the weighted fractional Sobolev space $W^{s,p;\,w,v}(\Omega)$ for bounded $\Omega$. We focus on the weights $w,\,v$ being powers…

The classical Hardy inequality holds in Sobolev spaces $W_0^{1,p}$ when $1\le p< N$. In the limiting case where $p=N$, it is known that by adding a logarithmic function to the Hardy potential, some inequality which is called the critical…

The paper deals with the operator $u\rightarrow gu$ defined in the Sobolev space $W^{r,p}(\Omega)$ and which takes values in $L^p(\Omega)$ when $\Omega$ is an unbounded open subset in $R^n$. The functions $g$ belong to wider spaces of $L^p$…

In this note, we are interested in the asymptotics as $n\to\infty$ of the $p$-capacity between the origin and the set $nB$, where $B$ is the boundary of the unit ball of the lattice $\mathbb Z^d$. The $p$-capacity is defined as the minimum…

If $Au=-div(a(x,Du))$ is a monotone operator defined on the Sobolev space $W^{1,p}(R^n)$, $1<p<+\infty$, with $a(x,0)=0$ for a.e. $x\in R^n$, the capacity $C_A(E,F)$ relative to $A$ can be defined for every pair $(E,F)$ of bounded sets in…

For each $m\ge 1$ and $p>2$ we characterize bounded simply connected Sobolev $L^m_p$-extension domains $\Omega\subset R^2$. Our criterion is expressed in terms of certain intrinsic subhyperbolic metrics in $\Omega$. Its proof is based on a…
