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…

Let M be an N-function satisfying the $\Delta_2$- condition, let $\omega, \vp$ be two other functions, $\omega\ge 0$. We study Hardy-type inequalities \[ \int_{\rp} M(\omega (x)|u(x)|) {\rm exp}(-\vp (x))dx \le C\int_{\rp} M(|u'(x)|) {\rm…

In this work we establish trace Hardy-Sobolev-Maz'ya inequalities with best Hardy constants, for weakly mean convex domains. We accomplish this by obtaining a new weighted Hardy type estimate which is of independent inerest. We then produce…
