Given a bounded domain $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^n$, a result by Bourgain, Brezis, and Mironescu characterizes when a function $f \in L^p(\Omega)$ is in the Sobolev space $W^{1,p}(\Omega)$ based on the limiting behavior of its Besov…

For a set $\mathbb{W} \subset L_p(\bT^d)$, $1 < p < \infty$, of multivariate periodic functions on the torus $\bT^d$ and a given function $\varphi \in L_p(\bT^d)$, we study the approximation in the $L_p(\bT^d)$-norm of functions $f \in…

In this note, we introduce a variant of Calder\'on and Zygmund's notion of $L^p$-differentiability - an \emph{$L^p$-Taylor approximation}. Our first result is that functions in the Sobolev space $W^{1,p}(\mathbb{R}^N)$ possess a first order…

In this paper, we prove Poincar\'e and Sobolev inequalities for differential forms in $L^1(\mathbb R^n)$. The singular integral estimates that it is possible to use for $L^p$, $p>1$, are replaced here with inequalities which go back to…

We study connections between the $W^1_p$-differentiability and the $L_p$-differentiability of Sobolev functions. We prove that, $W^1_p$-differentiability implies the $L_p$-differentiability, but the opposite implication is not valid. The…

In the last few years the authors proved Poincar\'e and Sobolev type inequalities in Heisenberg groups $\mathbb{H}^n$ for differential forms in the Rumin's complex. The need to substitute the usual de Rham complex of differential forms for…

We characterize one-sided weighted Sobolev spaces $W^{1,p}(\mathbb{R},\omega)$, where $\omega$ is a one-sided Sawyer weight, in terms of a.e.~and weighted $L^p$ limits as $\alpha\to1^-$ of Marchaud fractional derivatives of order $\alpha$.…

In this paper we study approximations of functions of Sobolev spaces $W^2_{p,\loc}(\Omega)$, $\Omega\subset\mathbb R^n$, by Lipschitz continuous functions. We prove that if $f\in W^2_{p,\loc}(\Omega)$, $1\leq p<\infty$, then there exists a…

Let $\mathcal{W}$ be a closed dilation and translation invariant subspace of the space of $\mathbb{R}^\ell$-valued Schwartz distributions in $d$ variables. We show that if the space $\mathcal{W}$ does not contain distributions of the type…

Our aim is to characterize the homogeneous fractional Sobolev-Slobodecki\u{\i} spaces $\mathcal{D}^{s,p} (\mathbb{R}^n)$ and their embeddings, for $s \in (0,1]$ and $p\ge 1$. They are defined as the completion of the set of smooth and…

In this paper we connect Calder\'on and Zygmund's notion of $L^p$\- -differentiability with some recent characterizations of Sobolev spaces via the asymptotics of non-local functionals due to Bourgain, Brezis, and Mironescu. We show how the…

Let $W^1L^{p,q}(\mathbb H^n)$, $1\leq q,p < \infty$ denote the Lorentz-Sobolev spaces of order one in the hyperbolic spaces $\mathbb H^n$. Our aim in this paper is three-fold. First of all, we establish a sharp Poincar\'e inequality in…

In this paper, we prove the following inequality \begin{equation*} \|\big(\int_{\mathbb{R}^n}\frac{|f(\cdot+y)-f(\cdot)|^q}{|y|^{n+sq}}dy\big)^{\frac{1}{q}}\|_{L^{p,\infty}(\mathbb{R}^n)}\lesssim\|f\|_{\dot{L}^p_s(\mathbb{R}^n)},…

We extend several known results on solvability in the Sobolev spaces $W^{1}_{p}$, $p\in[2,\infty)$, of SPDEs in divergence form in $\bR^{d}_{+}$ to equations having coefficients which are discontinuous in the space variable.

Let $d$ be a metric on $R^n$ and let $C^{m,(d)}(R^n)$ be the space of $C^m$-function on $R^n$ whose partial derivatives of order $m$ belong to the space $Lip(R^n;d)$. We show that the homogeneous Sobolev space $L^{m+1}_p(R^n),p>n,$ can be…

Several new inequalities for moduli of smoothness and errors of the best approximation of a function and its derivatives in the spaces $L_p$, $0<p<1$, are obtained. For example, it is shown that for any $0<p<1$ and $k,\,r\in \mathbb{N}$ one…

Polynomial approximation is studied in the Sobolev space $W_p^r(w_{\alpha,\beta})$ that consists of functions whose $r$-th derivatives are in weighted $L^p$ space with the Jacobi weight function $w_{\alpha,\beta}$. This requires…

Suppose that ${\cal L}$ is a divergence form differential operator of the form ${\cal L}f:=(1/2) e^{U}\nabla_x\cdot\big[e^{-U}(I+H)\nabla_x f\big]$, where $U$ is scalar valued, $I$ identity matrix and $H$ an anti-symmetric matrix valued…

We prove sharp inequalities of Hardy type for functions in the Sobolev space $W^{1,p}$ on the unit sphere $\mathbb{S}^{n-1}$ in $\mathbb{R}^{n}$. We achieve this in both the subcritical and critical cases. The method we use to show…

We study multiplier theorems on a vector-valued function space, which is a generalization of the results of Calder\'on-Torchinsky and Grafakos-He-Honz\'ik-Nguyen, and an improvement of the result of Triebel. For $0<p<\infty$ and $0<q\leq…
