Two Morrey-Sobolev inequalities (with support-bound and $L^1-$bound, respectively) are investigated on complete Riemannian manifolds with their sharp constants in $\mathbb R^n$. We prove the following results in both cases: $\bullet$ If…
The constraint equations in Maxwell theory are investigated. In analogy with some recent results on the constraints of general relativity it is shown, regardless of the signature and dimension of the ambient space, that the "divergence of a…
We investigate a natural approximation by subcritical Sobolev embeddings of the Sobolev quotient for the fractional Sobolev spaces $H^s$ for any $0<s<N/2$, using $\Gamma$-convergence techniques. We show that, for such approximations,…
We estimate the rate of change of the best constant in the Sobolev inequality of a Euclidean domain which moves outward. Along the way we prove an inequality which reverses the usual Holder inequality, which may be of independent interest.
We find all extremisers for the trace theorem on the sphere. We also provide a sharp extension for functions belonging to certain Sobolev spaces with angular regularity.
We prove a sharp quantitative version of the $p$-Sobolev inequality for any $1<p<n$, with a control on the strongest possible distance from the class of optimal functions. Surprisingly, the sharp exponent is constant for $p<2$, while it…
In this article, we give probabilistic versions of Sobolev embeddings on any Riemannian manifold $(M,g)$. More precisely, we prove that for natural probability measures on $L^2(M)$, almost every function belong to all spaces $L^p(M)$,…
Fractional Sobolev spaces, also known as Besov or Slobodetzki spaces, arise in many areas of analysis, stochastic analysis in particular. We prove an embedding into certain q-variation spaces and discuss a few applications. First we show…
We prove that in any Sobolev space which is subcritical with respect to the Sobolev Embedding Theorem there exists a closed infinite dimensional linear subspace whose non zero elements are nowhere bounded functions. We also prove the…
The paper contains a review of results on linear systems of ordinary differential equations of an arbitrary order on a finite interval with the most general inhomogeneous boundary conditions in Sobolev spaces. The character of the…
We study the boundary value problem $-{\rm div}((|\nabla u|^{p\_1(x) -2}+|\nabla u|^{p\_2(x)-2})\nabla u)=f(x,u)$ in $\Omega$, $u=0$ on $\partial\Omega$, where $\Omega$ is a smooth bounded domain in $\RR^N$. We focus on the cases when…
The purpose of this paper is to characterize all embeddings for versions of Besov and Triebel-Lizorkin spaces where the underlying Lebesgue space metric is replaced by a Lorentz space metric. We include two appendices, one on the relation…
We derive sufficient conditions for sampling with derivatives in shift-invariant spaces generated by a periodic exponential B-spline. The sufficient conditions are expressed with a new notion of measuring the gap between consecutive…
A theory of Sobolev inequalities in arbitrary open sets of Euclidean space is established. Boundary regularity of domains is replaced with information on boundary traces of trial functions and of their derivatives up to some explicit…
The aim of the present paper is to study existence results of minimizers of the critical fractional Sobolev constant on bounded domains. Under some values of the fractional parameter we show that the best constant is achieved. If moreover…
We develop the theory of variable exponent Hardy spaces. Analogous to the classical theory, we give equivalent definitions in terms of maximal operators. We also show that distributions in these spaces have an atomic decomposition including…
We prove Sobolev embedding Theorems with weights for vector bundles in a complete riemannian manifold. We also get general Gaffney's inequality with weights. As a consequence, under a "weak bounded geometry" hypothesis, we improve classical…
In this paper we consider a fourth order equation involving the critical Sobolev exponent on a bounded and smooth domain in $\R^6$. Using theory of critical points at infinity, we give some topological conditions on a given function defined…
