In the context of Euclidean spaces equipped with an arbitrary Radon measure, we prove the equivalence among several different notions of Sobolev space present in the literature and we characterise the minimal weak upper gradient of all…

Let $X$ be a separable Banach space endowed with a non-degenerate centered Gaussian measure $\mu$ and let $w$ be a positive function on $X$ such that $w\in W^{1,s}(X,\mu)$ and $\log w\in W^{1,t}(X,\mu)$ for some $s>1$ and $t>s'$. In the…

Let D be a bounded domain in n-dimensional Euclidean space, where n>2, and let 1<p< (2n)/(n-2). We prove a reverse-Holder inequality for functions realizing equality in the Sobolev inequality, which finds a lower bound for their (p-1)-norm…

We define the notion of colocally weakly differentiable maps from a manifold $M$ to a manifold $N$. If $p \ge 1$ and $M$ and $N$ are endowed with a Riemannian metric, this allows us to define intrinsically the homogeneous Sobolev space…

For a function $f$ from the Sobolev space $W^{1,p}(C)$ ($C\subset\mathbb{R}^d$ is an open convex cone), a sharp inequality that estimates $\| f\|_{L_{\infty}}$ via the $L_{p}$-norm of its gradient and a seminorm of the function is obtained.…

We define the chain Sobolev space on a possibly non-complete metric measure space in terms of chain upper gradients. In this context, $\varepsilon$-chains are a finite collection of points with distance at most $\varepsilon$ between…

Let $L^{m,p}(\mathbb{R}^n)$ be the homogeneous Sobolev space for $p \in (n,\infty)$, $\mu$ be a Borel regular measure on $\mathbb{R}^n$, and $L^{m,p}(\mathbb{R}^n) + L^p(d\mu)$ be the space of Borel measurable functions with finite seminorm…

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…

We show that, on any given finite Borel measure space with the ambient space being a Polish metric space, every Borel real-valued function is almost a bounded, uniformly continuous function in the sense that for every $\varepsilon > 0$…

We prove that in a vast class of metric measure spaces (namely, those whose associated Sobolev space is separable) the following property holds: a single test plan can be used to recover the minimal weak upper gradient of any Sobolev…

This is the first of two works concerning the Sobolev calculus on metric measure spaces and its applications. In this work, we focus on several notions of metric Sobolev space and on their equivalence. More precisely, we give a systematic…

Consider a regular domain $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^N$ and let $d(x)=\operatorname{dist}(x,\partial\Omega)$. Denote $L^{1,\infty}_a(\Omega)$ the space of functions from $L^{1,\infty}(\Omega)$ having absolutely continuous quasinorms. This…

In the setting of a metric space equipped with a doubling measure supporting a Poincar\'e inequality, we show that BV functions are, in the sense of multiple limits, continuous with respect to a 1-fine topology, at almost every point with…

Fix strictly increasing right continuous functions with left limits $W_i:\bb R \to \bb R$, $i=1,...,d$, and let $W(x) = \sum_{i=1}^d W_i(x_i)$ for $x\in\bb R^d$. We construct the $W$-Sobolev spaces, which consist of functions $f$ having…

Let $\lambda_{q}:=\inf{\Vert\nabla u\Vert_{L^{p}(\Omega)}^{p}/\Vertu\Vert_{L^{q}(\Omega)}^{p}:u\in W_{0}^{1,p}(\Omega)\setminus{0}} $, where $\Omega$ is a bounded and smooth domain of $\mathbb{R}^{N},$ $1<p<N$ and $1\leq q\leq p^{\star}%…

We consider Sobolev spaces with values in Banach spaces as they are frequently useful in applied problems. Given two Banach spaces $X\neq\{0\}$ and $Y$, each Lipschitz continuous mapping $F:X\rightarrow Y$ gives rise to a mapping $u\mapsto…

Given a positive integer $p$, we consider $W^{1,p}$-maps from a Euclidean domain of dimension $p+1$ into a closed Riemannian manifold $\mathcal{N}$. The target manifold is required to satisfy suitable topological conditions; in particular,…

In this paper we make a survey of some recent developments of the theory of Sobolev spaces $W^{1,q}(X,\sfd,\mm)$, $1<q<\infty$, in metric measure spaces $(X,\sfd,\mm)$. In the final part of the paper we provide a new proof of the…

We prove that if f : R^N --> R is quasiconvex and U is open in the density topology of R^N, then sup_U f = ess sup_U f, while inf_U f = ess inf_U f if and only if the equality holds when U = R^N. The first (second) property is typical of…

The study of certain differential operators between Sobolev spaces of sections of vector bundles on compact manifolds equipped with rough metric is closely related to the study of locally Sobolev functions on domains in the Euclidean space.…
