In this paper, we first investigate necessary optimality conditions for problems governed by systems describing the flow of an incompressible second grade fluid. Next, we study the asymptotic behavior of the optimal solution when the…
We consider the nonlinear and nonlocal problem $$ A_{1/2}u=|u|^{2^\sharp-2}u\ \text{in \Omega, \quad u=0 \text{on} \partial\Omega $$where $A_{1/2}$ represents the square root of the Laplacian in a bounded domain with zero Dirichlet boundary…
We show explicit forms for extremals of some fourth-order sharp trace inequalities on the unit balls recently proved by Ache-Chang. We also give a classification result of the bi-harmonic equation on $\mathbb{R}^4_+$ with some conformally…
The best constant of the Sobolev inequality in the whole space is attained by the Aubin-Talenti function; however, this does not happen in bounded domains because the break in dilation invariance. In this paper, we investigate a new scale…
We prove a Hardy-Sobolev-Maz'ya inequality for arbitrary domains \Omega\subset\R^N with a constant depending only on the dimension N\geq 3. In particular, for convex domains this settles a conjecture by Filippas, Maz'ya and Tertikas. As an…
We prove Reilly-type upper bounds for the first non-zero eigenvalue of the Steklov problem associated with the $p$-Laplace operator on submanifolds of manifolds with sectional curvature bounded form above by a non-negative constant.
We compute the optimal constant for a generalized Hardy-Sobolev inequality, and using the product of two symmetrizations we present an elementary proof of the symmetries of some optimal functions. This inequality was motivated by a…
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 consider the inequalities of Gagliardo-Nirenberg and Sobolev in R^d, formulated in terms of the Laplacian Delta and of the fractional powers D^n := (-Delta)^(n/2) with real n >= 0; we review known facts and present novel results in this…
When studying the weighted Hardy-Rellich inequality in $L^2$ with the full gradient replaced by the radial derivative the best constant becomes trivially larger or equal than in the first situation. Our contribution is to determine the new…
It is proved that if $T$ is sufficiently large, then uniformly for all positive integers $\ell \leqslant (\log T) / (\log_2 T)$, we have \begin{equation*} \max_{T\leqslant t\leqslant 2T}\left|\zeta^{(\ell)}\Big(1+it\Big)\right| \geqslant…
We give $L^p$ estimates for the second derivatives of weak solutions to the Dirichlet problem for equation $\Div(\mathbf{A}\nabla u) = f$ in $\Omega\subset \mathbb{R}^d$ with Sobolev coefficients. In particular, for $f\in L^2(\Omega)…
We prove new existence and uniqueness results in full Sobolev spaces for the steady-state Oseen problem in a smooth exterior domain of $\mathbb{R}^n$, $n\ge 2$. These results are then employed, on the one hand, in the study of analogous…
In this note we present upper bounds for the variational eigenvalues of the Steklov $p$-Laplacian on domains of $\mathbb R^n$, $n\geq 2$. We show that for $1<p\leq n$ the variational eigenvalues $\sigma_{p,k}$ are bounded above in terms of…
We consider the Laplace operator in the exterior of a compact set in the plane, subject to Robin boundary conditions. If the boundary coupling is sufficiently negative, there are at least two discrete eigenvalues below the essential…
Let $\Omega$ be a bounded $C^{2}$ domain in $\R^n$, and let $\Omega^{\ast}$ be the Euclidean ball centered at 0 and having the same Lebesgue measure as $\Omega$. Consider the operator $L=-\div(A\nabla)+v\cdot \nabla +V$ on $\Omega$ with…
We study the qualitative stability of two classes of Sobolev inequalities on Riemannian manifolds. In the case of positive Ricci curvature, we prove that an almost extremal function for the sharp Sobolev inequality is close to an extremal…
We obtain the sharp constant for the Hardy-Sobolev inequality involving the distance to the origin. This inequality is equivalent to a limiting Caffarelli-Kohn-Nirenberg inequality. In three dimensions, in certain cases the sharp constant…
This paper deals with optimal control problems for systems affine in the control variable. We consider nonnegativity constraints on the control, and finitely many equality and inequality constraints on the final state. First, we obtain…
We prove the existence of an extremal function in the Hardy-Littlewood-Sobolev inequality for the energy associated to an stable operator. To this aim we obtain a concentration-compactness principle for stable processes in $\mathbb{R}^N$.
