We show that every Hardy field extends to an $\omega$-free Hardy field. This result relates to classical oscillation criteria for second-order homogeneous linear differential equations. It is essential in [10], and here we apply it to…
We prove a characterization of Hardy's inequality in Sobolev-Slobodecki\u{\i} spaces in terms of positive local weak supersolutions of the relevant Euler-Lagrange equation. This extends previous results by Ancona and Kinnunen & Korte for…
This note studies the Hardy-type inequalities for vector fields with the $L^1$ norm of the $\curl$. In contrast to the well-known results in the whole space for the divergence-free vectors, we generalize the Hardy-type inequalities to the…
Homogeneous magnetic fields can be generated through the strategic arrangement of permanent magnets. The Halbach array serves as a prominent example of an effective design following this principle. However, it is a two-dimensional approach…
We prove several Sobolev inequalities, which are then used to establish a fractional Hardy-Sobolev- Maz'ya inequality on the upper halfspace.
The magnetic field outside the earth is in good approximation a harmonic vector field determined by its values at the earth's surface. The direction problem seeks to determine harmonic vector fields vanishing at infinity and with prescribed…
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…
It is shown that, in some cases, the effect of discrete distributions of flux lines in quantum mechanics can be associated with the effect of continuous distributions of magnetic fields with special symmetries. In particular, flux lines…
The Hodge equations for 1-forms are studied on Beltrami's projective disc model for hyperbolic space. Ideal points lying beyond projective infinity arise naturally in both the geometric and analytic arguments. An existence theorem for…
A Hardy inequality of the form \[\int_{\tilde{\Omega}} |\nabla f({\bf{x}})|^p d {\bf{x}} \ge (\frac{p-1}{p})^p \int_{\tilde{\Omega}} \{1 + a(\delta, \partial \tilde{\Omega})(\x)\}\frac{|f({\bf{x}})|^p}{\delta({\bf{x}})^p} d{\bf{x}}, \] for…
We derive an improved Poincar\'e inequality in connection with the Babu\v{s}ka-Aziz and Friedrichs-Velte inequalities for differential forms by estimating the domain specific optimal constants figuring in the respective inequalities with…
In this paper, we present a novel semi-classical theory of the electrostatic and magnetostatic fields and explain the nonlocality problem in the context of the Aharonov-Bohm effect [1]. Specifically, we show that the electrostatic and the…
We introduce a two-dimensional non-Hermitian lattice model with an imaginary magnetic field and elucidate various unique features which are absent in Hermitian lattice models with real magnetic fields. To describe the imaginary magnetic…
We study some Hardy-type inequalities involving a general norm in $R^n$ and an anisotropic distance function to the boundary. The case of the optimality of the constants is also addressed.
The classical Onofri inequality in the two-dimensional sphere assumes a natural form in the plane when transformed via stereographic projection. We establish an optimal version of a generalization of this inequality in the d-dimensional…
We discuss two possible covariant generalizations of the Aharonov-Bohm effect - one expression in terms of the space-time line integral of the four-vector potential and the other expression in terms of the space-time "area" integral of the…
We initiate a systematic study of intrinsic dimensional versions of classical functional inequalities which capture refined properties of the underlying objects. We focus on model spaces: Euclidean space, Hamming cube, and manifolds of…
In this paper, we establish discrete Hardy-Rellich inequalities on $\mathbb{N}$ with $\Delta^\frac{\ell}{2}$ and optimal constants, for any $\ell \geq 1$. As far as we are aware, these sharp inequalities are new for $\ell \geq 3$. Our…
In this paper some important inequalities are revisited. First, as motivation, we give another proof of the Hardy's inequality applying convenient vector fields as introduced by Mitidieri, see [6]. Then, we investigate a particular case of…
We prove several interesting equalities for the integrals of higher order derivatives on the homogeneous groups. As consequences, we obtain the sharp Hardy--Rellich type inequalities for higher order derivatives including both the…
