We show that a bounded planar simply connected domain $\Omega$ is a $W^{1,\,1}$-extension domain if and only if for every pair $x,y$ of points in $\Omega^c$ there exists a curve $\gamma \subset \Omega^c$ connecting $x$ and $y$ with $$…

We show that Sobolev space $W^1_1(\Omega)$ of any planar one-connected domain $\Omega$ has the Bounded Approximation property. The result holds independently from the properties of the boundary of $\Omega$. The prove is based on a new…

We describe a class of Sobolev $W^k_p$-extension domains $\Omega\subset R^n$ determined by a certain inner subhyperbolic metric in $\Omega$. This enables us to characterize finitely connected Sobolev $W^1_p$-extension domains in $R^2$ for…

We prove that if $\Om \subseteq \R^2$ is bounded and $\R^2 \setminus \Om$ satisfies suitable structural assumptions (for example it has a countable number of connected components), then $W^{1,2}(\Om)$ is dense in $W^{1,p}(\Om)$ for every…

We describe some sufficient conditions, under which smooth and compactly supported functions are or are not dense in the fractional Sobolev space $W^{s,p}(\Omega)$ for an open, bounded set $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^{d}$. The density property…

We consider the problem of strong density of smooth maps in the Sobolev space $ W^{s,p}(Q^{m};\mathcal{N}) $, where $ 0 < s < +\infty $, $ 1 \leq p < +\infty $, $ Q^{m} $ is the unit cube in $ \mathbb{R}^{m} $, and $ \mathcal{N} $ is a…

In this paper, we study the relationship between Sobolev extension domains and homogeneous Sobolev extension domains. Precisely, we obtain the following results. 1- Let $1\leq q\leq p\leq \infty$. Then a bounded $(L^{1, p}, L^{1,…

For each $m\ge 1$ and $p>2$ we characterize bounded simply connected Sobolev $L^m_p$-extension domains $\Omega\subset R^2$. Our criterion is expressed in terms of certain intrinsic subhyperbolic metrics in $\Omega$. Its proof is based on a…

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)…

Let $\Omega\subseteq\mathbb R^2$ be a domain and let $f\in W^{1,1}(\Omega,\mathbb R^2)$ be a homeomorphism (between $\Omega$ and $f(\Omega)$). Then there exists a sequence of smooth diffeomorphisms $f_k$ converging to $f$ in…

We investigate two density questions for Sobolev, Besov and Triebel--Lizorkin spaces on rough sets. Our main results, stated in the simplest Sobolev space setting, are that: (i) for an open set $\Omega\subset\mathbb R^n$,…

This paper studies the inclusions between different Sobolev-Lorentz spaces $W^{1,(p,q)}(\Omega)$ defined on open sets $\Omega \subset {\mathbf{R}^n},$ where $n \ge 1$ is an integer, $1<p<\infty$ and $1 \le q \le \infty.$ We prove that if $1…
