This is the second of two works concerning the Sobolev calculus on metric measure spaces and its applications. In this work, we focus on several approaches to vector calculus in the non-smooth setting of complete and separable metric spaces…

In this paper we study compactness and quantization properties of sequences of 1/2-harmonic maps $u_k\colon\R\to {\cal{S}}^{m-1}$ such that $|u_k|_{\dot H^{1/2}(\R,{\cal{S}}^{m-1})}\le C.$ More precisely we show that there exist a weak…

We study the phenomena of energy concentration for the critical O(3) sigma model, also known as the wave map flow from R^{2+1} Minkowski space into the sphere S^2. We establish rigorously and constructively existence of a set of smooth…

In this paper we investigate the existence of solutions to a nonlinear elliptic problem involving critical Sobolev exponent for a polyharmonic operator on a Riemannian manifold $M$. We first show that the best constant of the Sobolev…

We consider the generalized Segal-Bargmann transform C_t for a compact group K, introduced in B. C. Hall, J. Funct. Anal. 122 (1994), 103-151. Let K_C denote the complexification of K. We give a necessary-and-sufficient pointwise growth…

In the present paper we study embedding operators for weighted Sobolev spaces whose weights satisfy the well-known Muckenhoupt A_p-condition. Sufficient conditions for boundedness and compactness of the embedding operators are obtained for…

In this paper we construct frames of Gabor type for the space $L^2_{rad}(\R^d)$ of radial $L^2$-functions, and more generally, for subspaces of modulation spaces consisting of radial distributions. Hereby, each frame element itself is a…

We consider the mass-subcritical NLS in dimensions $d\geq 3$ with radial initial data. In the defocusing case, we prove that any solution that remains bounded in the critical Sobolev space throughout its lifespan must be global and scatter.…

This note consists of two largely independent parts. In the first part we give conditions on the kernel $k: \Omega \times \Omega \rightarrow \mathbb{R}$ of a reproducing kernel Hilbert space $H$ continuously embedded via the identity…

It follows from a theorem of Rosenthal that a compact space is $ccc$ if and only if every Eberlein continuous image is metrizable. Motivated by this result, for a class of compact spaces $\mathcal{C}$ we define its orthogonal…

Function values are, in some sense, "almost as good" as general linear information for $L_2$-approximation (optimal recovery, data assimilation) of functions from a reproducing kernel Hilbert space. This was recently proved by new upper…

Given the reproducing kernel $k$ of the Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}_k$ we study spaces $\mathcal{H}_k(b)$ whose reproducing kernel has the form $k(1-bb^*)$, where $b$ is a row-contraction on $\mathcal{H}_k$. In terms of reproducing kernels…

This paper aims to extend to Orlicz-Sobolev spaces some results of integral representation for the simultaneous homogenization and dimensional reduction of integral energies defined on fields taking values on a differentiable manifold.…

We compare the Kolmogorov and entropy numbers of compact operators mapping from a Hilbert space into a Banach space. We then apply these general findings to embeddings between reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces and $L_\infty(\mu)$. Here we…

When studying the causal propagation of a field in a globally hyperbolic spacetime M, one often wants to express the physical intuition that it has compact support in spacelike directions, or that its support is a spacelike compact set. We…

We show that the biharmonic Hilbert complex with mixed boundary conditions on bounded strong Lipschitz domains is closed and compact. The crucial results are compact embeddings which follow by abstract arguments using functional analysis…

We focus on the Sobolev spaces of bounded subanalytic submanifolds of $\mathbb{R}^n$. We prove that if $M$ is such a manifold then the space $\mathscr{C}_0^\infty(M)$ is dense in $W^{1,p}(M,\partial M)$ (the kernel of the trace operator)…

In this paper we investigate the problem of non-analytic embeddings of Lorentzian manifolds in Ricci-flat semi-Riemannian spaces. In order to do this, we first review some relevant results in the area, and then motivate both the…

We recast the tools of ``global causal analysis'' in accord with an approach to the subject animated by two distinctive features: a thoroughgoing reliance on order-theoretic concepts, and a utilization of the Vietoris topology for the space…

Relying on a recent criterion, due to A.~Petrunin [18], to check if a complete, non-compact, Riemannian manifold admits an isometric embedding into a Euclidean space with positive reach, we extend to manifolds with such property the…
