We prove all the maximizers of the sharp Hardy-Littlewood-Sobolev inequality are smooth. More generally, we show all the nonnegative critical functions are smooth, radial with respect to some points and strictly decreasing in the radial…

There are at least two directions concerning the extension of classical sharp Hardy-Littlewood-Sobolev inequality: (1) Extending the sharp inequality on general manifolds; (2) Extending it for the negative exponent $\lambda=n-\alpha$ (that…

We establishe an affine Hardy-Littlewood-Sobolev inequality concerning two different functions which is stronger than the classical Hardy-Littlewood-Sobolev inequality. Furthermore, we also prove reverse inequalities for the new…

Sharp affine Hardy--Littlewood--Sobolev inequalities for functions on $\mathbb R^n$ are established, which are significantly stronger than (and directly imply) the sharp Hardy--Littlewood--Sobolev inequalities by Lieb and by Beckner, Dou,…

Frank et al. (J. Funct. Anal., 2022) stated that there is no relation between the reversed Hardy-Littlewood-Sobolev (HLS) inequalities and reverse Sobolev inequalities. However, we demonstrate that reverse Sobolev inequalities of order…

The classical sharp Hardy-Littlewood-Sobolev inequality states that, for $1<p, t<\infty$ and $0<\lambda=n-\alpha <n$ with $ 1/p +1 /t+ \lambda /n=2$, there is a best constant $N(n,\lambda,p)>0$, such that $$ |\int_{\mathbb{R}^n}…

We give a representation of the fractional integral for symmetric Markovian semigroups as the projection of martingale transforms and prove the Hardy-Littlewood-Sobolev(HLS) inequality based on this representation. The proof rests on a new…

We prove sharp inequalities of Hardy type for functions in the Sobolev space $W^{1,p}$ on the unit sphere $\mathbb{S}^{n-1}$ in $\mathbb{R}^{n}$. We achieve this in both the subcritical and critical cases. The method we use to show…

We show that the sharp constant in the Hardy-Littlewood-Sobolev inequality can be derived using the method that we employed earlier for a similar inequality on the Heisenberg group. The merit of this proof is that it does not rely on…

The well known duality between the Sobolev inequality and the Hardy-Littlewood-Sobolev inequality suggests that the Nash inequality could also have an interesting dual form, even though the Nash inequality relates three norms instead of…

We prove a new inequality which improves on the classical Hardy inequality in the sense that a nonlinear integral quantity with super-quadratic growth, which is computed with respect to an inverse square weight, is controlled by the energy.…

Hardy-Littlewood-Sobolev (HLS) Inequality fails in the "critical" case: \mu=n. However, for discrete HLS, we can derive a finite form of HLS inequality with logarithm correction for a critical case: \mu=n and p=q, by limiting the inequality…

For a closed connected surface with a metric g, we consider the regularized trace of the inverse of the Laplace-Beltrami operator. We minimize this on the class of smooth metrics conformal to g having the same area, and show that the…
