We give almost sharp conditions under which the maximal operator associated with the wave equation with initial data in Sobolev space H^s(R^n) is bounded from H^s(R^n) to L^q(R^n).
This paper is devoted to improvements of Sobolev and Onofri inequalities. The additional terms involve the dual counterparts, i.e. Hardy-Littlewood-Sobolev type inequalities. The Onofri inequality is achieved as a limit case of Sobolev type…
We study the $P_1$ finite element approximation of the best constant in the classical Hardy inequality over bounded domains containing the origin in $\mathbb{R}^N$, for $N \geq 3$. Despite the fact that this constant is not attained in the…
We analyze univariate oscillatory integrals defined on the real line for functions from the standard Sobolev space $H^s({\mathbb{R}})$ and from the space $C^s({\mathbb{R}})$ with an arbitrary integer $s\ge1$. We find tight upper and lower…
In this paper the dependence of the best constants in Sobolev and Gagliardo-Nirenberg inequalities on the precise form of the Sobolev space norm is investigated. The analysis is carried out on general graded Lie groups, thus including the…
In 1989 Almgren and Lieb proved a rearrangement inequality for the Sobolev spaces of fractional order $W^{s,p}$. The case $p = 2$ of their result implies the nonlocal isoperimetric inequality \[ \frac{P_s(E)}{|E|^{\frac{N-2s}N}} \ge…
We study the sharp constant in the Hardy inequality for fractional Sobolev spaces defined on open subsets of the Euclidean space. We first list some properties of such a constant, as well as of the associated variational problem. We then…
We show that, when $sp>N$, the sharp Hardy constant $\mathfrak{h}_{s,p}$ of the punctured space $\mathbb R^N\setminus\{0\}$ in the Sobolev-Slobodecki\u{\i} space provides an optimal lower bound for the Hardy constant…
For a function $f$ from the Sobolev space $W^{1,p}(C)$ ($C\subset\mathbb{R}^d$ is an open convex cone), a sharp inequality that estimates $\| f\|_{L_{\infty}}$ via the $L_{p}$-norm of its gradient and a seminorm of the function is obtained.…
In this article, we prove the best Bianchi-Egnell constant for the Hardy-Sobolev (HS) inequality \begin{align*} C_{\tiny\mbox{{BE}}}(\gamma) := \inf_{{u \ \small \mbox{not an optimizer}}} \frac{\int_{\mathbb{R}^n} \left(|\nabla u|^2 -…
The optimal constants in a class of exponential type inequalities for the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck operator in the Gauss space are detected. The existence of extremal functions in the relevant inequalities is also established. Our results…
In this paper we obtain the best constants in some higher order Sobolev inequalities in the critical exponent. These inequalities can be separated into two types: those that embed into $L^\infty(\mathbb{R}^N)$ and those that embed into…
In this paper in the space $L_2^{(m)}(0,1)$ the problem of construction of optimal quadrature formulas is considered. Here the quadrature sum consists on values of integrand at nodes and values of first derivative of integrand at the end…
It is known that functions in a Sobolev space with critical exponent embed into the space of functions of bounded mean oscillation, and therefore satisfy the John-Nirenberg inequality and a corresponding exponential integrability estimate.…
We consider the problem of attainability of the best constant in the following critical fractional Hardy-Sobolev inequality: \begin{equation*} \mu_{\gamma,s}(\R^n):= \inf\limits_{u \in H^{\frac{\alpha}{2}} (\R^n)\setminus \{0\}} \frac{…
In this paper we consider the incompressible Euler equation on the Sobolev space $H^s(\R^n)$, $s > n/2+1$, and show that for any $T > 0$ its solution map $u_0 \mapsto u(T)$, mapping the initial value to the value at time $T$, is nowhere…
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…
In this paper, we will use a suitable tranform to investigate the sharp constants and optimizers for the following Caffarelli-Kohn-Nirenberg inequalities for a wide range of parameters $(r,p,q,s,\mu,\sigma)$ and $0\leq a\leq1$:…
If $\Omega \subset \R^n$ is a smooth bounded domain and $q \in (0, \frac{n}{n-1})$ we consider the Poincare-Sobolev inequality \[ c \Bigl(\int_{\Omega} \abs{u}^\frac{n}{n-1}\Bigr)^{1-\frac{1}{n}} \le \int_{\Omega} \abs{Du}, \] for every $u…
We give a new proof of Aubin's improvement of the Sobolev inequality on $\mathbb{S}^{n}$ under the vanishing of first order moments of the area element and generalize it to higher order moments case. By careful study of an extremal problem…
