We show that capacity can be computed with locally Lipschitz functions in locally complete and separable metric spaces. Further, we show that if $(X,d,\mu)$ is a locally complete and separable metric measure space, then continuous functions…
Density of Lipschitz functions in Newtonian spaces based on quasi-Banach function lattices is discussed. Newtonian spaces are first-order Sobolev-type spaces on abstract metric measure spaces defined via (weak) upper gradients. Our main…
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…
We study the p-fine topology on complete metric spaces equipped with a doubling measure supporting a p-Poincare inequality, 1 < p< oo. We establish a weak Cartan property, which yields characterizations of the p-thinness and the p-fine…
Given $p \in (1,\infty)$, let $(\operatorname{X},\operatorname{d},\mu)$ be a metric measure space with uniformly locally doubling measure $\mu$ supporting a weak local $(1,p)$-Poincar\'e inequality. For each $\theta \in [0,p)$, we…
We consider the strong density problem in the Sobolev space $ W^{s,p}(Q^{m};\mathscr{N}) $ of maps with values into a compact Riemannian manifold $ \mathscr{N} $. It is known, from the seminal work of Bethuel, that such maps may always be…
We prove some general Sobolev-type and related inequalities for positive operators A of given ultracontractive spectral decay, without assuming e^{-tA} is submarkovian. These inequalities hold on functions, or pure states, as usual, but…
We prove uniqueness for continuity equations in Hilbert spaces $H$. The corresponding drift $F$ is assumed to be in a first order Sobolev space with respect to some Gaussian measure. As in previous work on the subject, the proof is based on…
Let $S \subset \mathbb{R}^{n}$ be an arbitrary nonempty compact set such that the $d$-Hausdorff content $\mathcal{H}^{d}_{\infty}(S) > 0$ for some $d \in (0,n]$. For each $p \in (\max\{1,n-d\},n]$, an almost sharp intrinsic description of…
We consider the spaces $L^p(X,\nu;V)$, where $X$ is a separable Banach space, $\mu$ is a centred non-degenerate Gaussian measure, $\nu:=Ke^{-U}\mu$ with normalizing factor $K$ and $V$ is a separable Hilbert space. In this paper we prove a…
We study fine P\'olya-Szeg\H{o} rearrangement inequalities into weighted intervals for Sobolev functions and functions of bounded variation defined on metric measure spaces supporting an isoperimetric inequality. We then specialize this…
We consider integrals in the sense of Choquet with respect to the $\delta$-dimensional Hausdorff content for continuously differentiable functions defined on open, connected sets in the Euclidean $n$-space, $n\geq 2$, $0<\delta\le n$. In…
Consider the Poincar\'e-Sobolev inequality on the hyperbolic space: for every $n \geq 3$ and $1 < p \leq \frac{n+2}{n-2},$ there exists a best constant $S_{n,p, \lambda}(\mathbb{B}^{n})>0$ such that $$S_{n, p,…
For each $p>1$ and each positive integer $m$ we give intrinsic characterizations of the restriction of the Sobolev space $W^m_p(R)$ and homogeneous Sobolev space $L^m_p(R)$ to an arbitrary closed subset $E$ of the real line. In particular,…
We focus on the Sobolev spaces of bounded subanalytic submanifolds of $\mathbb{R}^n$. We prove that if $M$ is such a manifold then the space $\mathscr{C}_0^\infty(M)$ is dense in $W^{1,p}(M,\partial M)$ (the kernel of the trace operator)…
Near every point of a real-analytic set in $\mathbb R^n$, we make use of Hironaka's resolution of singularity theorem to construct a family of continuous functions in $W^{1, 1}_{loc}$ such that their weak derivatives have (removable)…
We study the qualitative stability of two classes of Sobolev inequalities on Riemannian manifolds. In the case of positive Ricci curvature, we prove that an almost extremal function for the sharp Sobolev inequality is close to an extremal…
In a statistical mechanics model with unbounded spins, we prove uniqueness of the Gibbs measure under various assumptions on finite volume functional inequalities. We follow the approach of G. Royer (1999) and obtain uniqueness by showing…
Using purely variational methods, we prove local and global higher integrability results for upper gradients of quasiminimizers of a $(p,q)$-Dirichlet integral with fixed boundary data, assuming it belongs to a slightly better Newtonian…
