We present the best constant and the existence of extremal functions for an Improved Hardy-Sobolev inequality. We prove that, under a proper transformation, this inequality is equivalent to the Sobolev inequality in $\mathbb{R}^N$. We also…

Although the Hardy inequality corresponding to one quadratic singularity, with optimal constant, does not admit any extremal function, it is well known that such a potential can be improved, in the sense that a positive term can be added to…

We present a unified approach to improved $L^p$ Hardy inequalities in $\R^N$. We consider Hardy potentials that involve either the distance from a point, or the distance from the boundary, or even the intermediate case where distance is…

Let $\Omega$ be a bounded open set of class $C^{1,1}$ in $\mathbb{R}^N$ and $s\in(\frac{1}{2}, 1)$. We study a family of fractional Hardy-type inequalities \begin{equation}…

As our main result we prove a variant of the fractional Hardy-Sobolev-Maz'ya inequality for half spaces. This result contains a complete answer to a recent open question by Musina and Nazarov. In the proof we apply a new version of the…

We give a new, simpler proof of the fractional Korn's inequality for subsets of $\mathbb{R}^d$. We also show a framework for obtaining Korn's inequality directly from the appropriate Hardy-type inequality.

We establish new Euclidean Sobolev logarithmic inequalities in the framework of fractional Sobolev spaces and their weighted version. Our approach relies on a interpolation inequality, which can be viewed as a fractional…

Let P be a linear, second order, elliptic operator satisfying a Hardy inequality with potential W (i.e. $P-W\geq0$) and best constant $\alpha$. We give conditions so that the spectrum of $W^{-1}P$ is $[\alpha,\infty)$. We apply this to…

We prove the Harnack inequality for antisymmetric $s$-harmonic functions, and more generally for solutions of fractional equations with zero-th order terms, in a general domain. This may be used in conjunction with the method of moving…

We develop further the theory of symmetrization of fractional Laplacian operators contained in recent works of two of the authors. The theory leads to optimal estimates in the form of concentration comparison inequalities for both elliptic…
