We study fine potential theory and in particular partitions of unity in quasiopen sets in the case $p=1$. Using these, we develop an analog of the discrete convolution technique in quasiopen (instead of open) sets. We apply this technique…

In this paper, first-order Sobolev-type spaces on abstract metric measure spaces are defined using the notion of (weak) upper gradients, where the summability of a function and its upper gradient is measured by the "norm" of a quasi-Banach…

This paper studies the relations between extendability of different classes of Sobolev $W^{1,1}$ and $BV$ functions from closed sets in general metric measure spaces. Under the assumption that the metric measure space satisfies a weak…

On a general open set of the euclidean space, we study the relation between the embedding of the homogeneous Sobolev space $\mathcal{D}^{1,p}_0$ into $L^q$ and the summability properties of the distance function. We prove that in the…

The usual Sobolev inequality in $\mathbb{R}^N$, asserts that $\|\nabla u\|_{L^p(\mathbb{R}^N)} \geq \mathcal{S}\|u\|_{L^{p^*}(\mathbb{R}^N)}$ for $1<p<N$ and $p^*=\frac{pN}{N-p}$, with $\mathcal{S}$ being the sharp constant. Based on a…

We prove $L^p$ quantitative differentiability estimates for functions defined on uniformly rectifiable subsets of the Euclidean space. More precisely, we show that a Dorronsoro-type theorem holds in this context: the $L^p$ norm of the…

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…

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 derive a new criterion for a real-valued function $u$ to be in the Sobolev space $W^{1,2}(\R^n)$. This criterion consists of comparing the value of a functional $\int f(u)$ with the values of the same functional applied to convolutions…
