We establish sharp Sobolev inequalities of order four on Euclidean d-balls for d greater than or equal to four. When d=4, our inequality generalizes the classical second order Lebedev-Milin inequality on Euclidean 2-balls. Our method relies…
We present a class of modified logarithmic Sobolev inequality, interpolating between Poincar\'e and logarithmic Sobolev inequalities, suitable for measures of the type $\exp(-|x|^\al)$ or more complex $\exp(-|x|^\al\log^\beta(2+|x|))$…
We determine the sharp constants for the fractional Sobolev inequalities associated with the conformally invariant fractional powers $\mathcal{L}_{s}(0<s<1)$ of the sublaplacian on H-type groups. From these inequalities we derive a sharp…
In this paper we establish a new class of weighted Hardy-Sobolev type inequalities under mild monotonicity assumptions on the weight function. As a consequence, we derive the corresponding weighted Sobolev and trace-type inequalities. These…
It is shown that every even, zonal measure on the Euclidean unit sphere gives rise to an isoperimetric inequality for sets of finite perimeter which directly implies the classical Euclidean isoperimetric inequality. The strongest member of…
We develop a new method to obtain symmetrization inequalities of Sobolev type. Our approach leads to new inequalities and considerable simplification in the theory of embeddings of Sobolev spaces based on rearrangement invariant spaces.
The goal of this short note is to prove qualitative stability for a family of trace Sobolev inequalities first proven by Carlen \& Loss for $p=2$ and by Maggi and the author for $p\in (1,n)$. This answers an open problem raised in a recent…
We establish sharp Sobolev trace inequalities for conformally invariant fractional powers of the sublaplacian on the Heisenberg group and the CR sphere, extending the corresponding Euclidean results of Einav-Loss, Beckner, and…
We propose a new Borell-Brascamp-Lieb inequality which leads to novel sharp Euclidean inequalities such as Gagliardo-Nirenberg-Sobolev inequalities in R^n and in the half-space R^n\_+. This gives a new bridge between the geometric pont of…
Optimal higher-order Sobolev type embeddings are shown to follow via isoperimetric inequalities. This establishes a higher-order analogue of a well-known link between first-order Sobolev embeddings and isoperimetric inequalities. Sobolev…
If one thinks of a Riemannian metric, $g_1$, analogously as the gradient of the corresponding distance function, $d_1$, with respect to a background Riemannian metric, $g_0$, then a natural question arises as to whether a corresponding…
Using isoperimetry and symmetrization we provide a unified framework to study the classical and logarithmic Sobolev inequalities. In particular, we obtain new Gaussian symmetrization inequalities and connect them with logarithmic Sobolev…
The subject is traces of Sobolev spaces with mixed Lebesgue norms on Euclidean space. Specifically, restrictions to the hyperplanes given by the first and last coordinates are applied to functions belonging to quasi-homogeneous, mixed-norm…
We consider the minimization problem corresponding to a Sobolev inequality for vector fields and show that minimizing sequences are relatively compact up to the symmetries of the problem. In particular, there is a minimizer. An ingredient…

We investigate the validity, as well as the failure, of Sobolev-type inequalities on Cartan-Hadamard manifolds under suitable bounds on the sectional and the Ricci curvatures. We prove that if the sectional curvatures are bounded from above…
The sharp trace inequality of Jose Escobar is extended to traces for the fractional Laplacian on R^n and a complete characterization of cases of equality is discussed. The proof proceeds via Fourier transform and uses Lieb's sharp form of…
