We prove the developability and $C^{1,1/2}$ regularity of $W^{2,2}$ isometric immersions of $n$-dimensional domains into $R^{n+1}$. As a conclusion we show that any such Sobolev isometry can be approximated by smooth isometries in the…

This paper studies Newtonian Sobolev-Lorentz spaces. We prove that these spaces are Banach. We also study the global p,q-capacity and the p,q-modulus of families of rectifiable curves. Under some additional assumptions (that is, the space…

We show that the nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation on the Sierpinski gasket with a power nonlinearity of order $2k{+}1$ is not locally well-posed for initial data just below the regularity threshold for the Sobolev embedding $H^s\subseteq…

Let $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^{2}$ be a bounded, Lipschitz domain. We consider bounded, weak solutions ($u\in W^{1, 2}\cap L^{\infty}(\Omega;\mathbb{R}^N)$) of the vector-valued, Euler-Lagrange system: \text{div } \big( A(x, u)Du\big)=g(x,…

This paper studies critical fractional Sobolev inequalities with lower-order terms on the standard CR sphere $\mathbb S^{2n+1}$. Let $Q=2n+2$, let $s\in(0,1)$, let $1<p<Q$, and let $p_s^*=\frac{Qp}{Q-sp}$. For the inequality…

For each $p>2$ we give intrinsic characterizations of the restriction of the homogeneous Sobolev space $L^1_p(R^2)$ to an arbitrary finite subset $E$ of $R^2$. The trace criterion is expressed in terms of certain weighted oscillations of…

Consider the space $W^{2,2}(\Omega;N)$ of second order Sobolev mappings $\ v\ $ from a smooth domain $\Omega\subset\R^m$ to a compact Riemannian manifold $N$ whose Hessian energy $\int_\Omega |\nabla^2 v|^2\, dx$ is finite. Here we are…

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 introduces first order Sobolev spaces on certain rectifiable varifolds. These complete locally convex spaces are contained in the generally nonlinear class of generalised weakly differentiable functions and share key functional…

The concept of the capacity of a compact set in $\mathbb R^n$ generalizes readily to noncompact Riemannian manifolds and, with more substantial work, to metric spaces (where multiple natural definitions of capacity are possible). Motivated…

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 study the interpolation property of Sobolev spaces of order 1 denoted by $W^{1}_{p,V}$, arising from Schr\"{o}dinger operators with positive potential. We show that for $1\leq p_1<p<p_2<q_{0}$ with $p>s_0$, $W^{1}_{p,V}$ is a real…

In this note, we establish a strong form of the quantitive Sobolev inequality in Euclidean space for $p \in (1,n)$. Given any function $u \in \dot W^{1,p}(\mathbb{R}^n)$, the gap in the Sobolev inequality controls $\| \nabla u -\nabla…

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…

A comprehensive approach to Sobolev-type embeddings, involving arbitrary rearrangement- invariant norms on the entire Euclidean space R^n, is offered. In particular, the optimal target space in any such embedding is exhibited. Crucial in…
