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…

We give a Sobolev inequality characterisation for the vanishing of a fundamental class in the controlled coarse homology of Nowak and Spakula for quasiconvex uniform spaces that support a local weak $(1,1)$-Poincar\'e inequality. As…

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…

A basilar property and a useful tool in the theory of Sobolev spaces is the density of smooth compactly supported functions in the space $W^{k,p}(\R^n)$ (i.e. the functions with weak derivatives of orders $0$ to $k$ in $L^p$). On Riemannian…

We obtain new characterizations of the Sobolev spaces $\dot W^{1,p}(\mathbb{R}^N)$ and the bounded variation space $\dot{BV}(\mathbb{R}^N)$. The characterizations are in terms of the functionals $\nu_{\gamma} (E_{\lambda,\gamma/p}[u])$…

A classical result owing to Mancini and Sandeep [Ann. Sc. Norm. Super. Pisa Cl. Sci. 7 (2008)] asserts that all positive solutions of the Poincar\'e-Sobolev equation on the hyperbolic space $$ -\Delta_{\mathbb{B}^n} u-\lambda u =…

In this paper, we review recent results on stability and instability in logarithmic Sobolev inequalities, with a particular emphasis on strong norms. We consider several versions of these inequalities on the Euclidean space, for the…

In the Euclidean setting the Sobolev spaces $W^{\alpha,p}\cap L^\infty$ are algebras for the pointwise product when $\alpha>0$ and $p\in(1,\infty)$. This property has recently been extended to a variety of geometric settings. We produce a…

We prove a sharp logarithmic Sobolev inequality which holds for submanifolds in Euclidean space of arbitrary dimension and codimension. Like the Michael-Simon Sobolev inequality, this inequality includes a term involving the mean curvature.

In this paper we study the Sobolev inequality in the Dunkl setting using two new approaches which provide a simpler elementary proof of the classical case $p=2$, as well as an extension to the coefficient $p=1$ that was previously unknown.…

Given a smooth, complete Riemannian manifold $M$ with bounded Ricci curvature and positive injectivity radius, we derive a sharp Sobolev inequality for the embedding of $W^{1,p}(M)$ into $L^{\frac{np}{n-p}}(M)$, when $1\le p< n$. We will…

We show that every Sobolev function in $W^{1,p}_{\textrm{loc}}(U)$ on a $p$-quasiopen set $U \subset {\bf R}^n$ with a.e.-vanishing $p$-fine gradient is a.e.-constant if and only if $U$ is $p$-quasiconnected. To prove this we use the theory…
