We review the literature concerning the Hardy inequality for regions in Euclidean space and in manifolds, concentrating on the best constants. We also give applications of these inequalities to boundary decay and spectral approximation.

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.…

We calculate the regional fractional Laplacian on some power function on an interval. As an application, we prove Hardy inequality with an extra term for the fractional Laplacian on the interval with the optimal constant. As a result, we…

We give a new proof of Hardy's uncertainty principle, up to the end-point case, which is only based on calculus. The method allows us to extend Hardy's uncertainty principle to Schr\"odinger equations with non-constant coefficients. We also…

An inequality of Hardy type is established for quadratic forms involving Dirac operator and a weight $r^{-b}$ for functions in $\R^n$. The exact Hardy constant $c_b=c_b(n)$ is found and generalized minimizers are given. The constant $c_b$…

We establish an analog Hardy inequality with sharp constant involving exponential weight function. The special case of this inequality (for n=2) leads to a direct proof of Onofri inequality on S^2.

We set up a one-parameter family of inequalities that contains both the Hardy inequalities (when the parameter is 1) and the Caffarelli-Kohn-Nirenberg inequalities (when the parameter is optimal). Moreover, we study these results with the…
