This paper deals with the embedding of the Sobolev spaces of fractional order into the space of H\"older continuous functions. More precisely, we show that the function $f\in H^s(\mathbb{R})$ with $\frac{1}{2}<s<1$ is H\"older continuous…

We study the Lp-properties of positive Rockland operators and define Sobolev spaces on general graded groups. This generalises the case of sub-Laplacians on stratified groups studied by G. Folland in [3]. We show that the defined Sobolev…

A theorem of Dorronsoro from the 1980s quantifies the fact that real-valued Sobolev functions on Euclidean spaces can be approximated by affine functions almost everywhere, and at all sufficiently small scales. We prove a variant of…

Let $1<p\le4$ when $n=1$ and $1<p< 3+\frac{1}{n-1} $ when $n\ge2$. We obtain the second-order horizontal Sobolev $HW^{2,2}_{\rm loc} $-regularity of $p$-harmonic functions in the Heisenberg group $\mathbb H^n$. This improves the known range…

We prove a characterization of the Sobolev spaces $H^\alpha$ on the unit sphere $\mathbb{S}^{d-1}$, where the smoothness index $\alpha$ is any positive real number and $d\geq 2$. This characterization does not use differentiation and it is…

This paper introduces first order Sobolev spaces on certain rectifiable varifolds. These complete locally convex spaces are contained in the generally nonlinear class of generalised weakly differentiable functions and share key functional…

We consider sub-Riemannian manifolds which are homogeneous spaces equipped with a natural sub-Riemannian structure induced by a transitive action by a Lie group. In such a setting, the corresponding sub-Laplacian is not an elliptic but a…

In this note, we establish a $L^p-$version of the Poincar\'e--Sobolev inequalities in the hyperbolic spaces $\mathbb H^n$. The interest of this result is that it relates both the Poincar\'e (or Hardy) inequality and the Sobolev inequality…

In analogy with the definition of ``extended Sobolev scale" on $\mathbb{R}^n$ by Mikhailets and Murach, working in the setting of the lattice $\mathbb{Z}^n$, we define the ``extended Sobolev scale" $H^{\varphi}(\mathbb{Z}^n)$, where…

In this paper we connect Calder\'on and Zygmund's notion of $L^p$\- -differentiability with some recent characterizations of Sobolev spaces via the asymptotics of non-local functionals due to Bourgain, Brezis, and Mironescu. We show how the…

A Sobolev type embedding for radially symmetric functions on the unit ball $B$ in $\mathbb R^n$, $n\geq 3$, into the variable exponent Lebesgue space $L_{2^\star + |x|^\alpha} (B)$, $2^\star = 2n/(n-2)$, $\alpha>0$, is known due to J.M. do…

This paper studies the inclusions between different Sobolev-Lorentz spaces $W^{1,(p,q)}(\Omega)$ defined on open sets $\Omega \subset {\mathbf{R}^n},$ where $n \ge 1$ is an integer, $1<p<\infty$ and $1 \le q \le \infty.$ We prove that if $1…

We explicitly describe all Hilbert function spaces that are interpolation spaces with respect to a given couple of Sobolev inner product spaces considered over $\mathbb{R}^{n}$ or a half-space in $\mathbb{R}^{n}$ or a bounded Euclidean…

Let $\mathbb{H}^{n}$ be the Heisenberg group and $Q = 2n+2$. For $1 < q < \infty$, $\gamma > 0$ and an exponent function $p(\cdot)$ on $\mathbb{H}^n$, which satisfy log-H\"older conditions, with $0 < p_{-} \leq p_{+} < \infty$, we introduce…

In this paper n-dimensional Sobolev type spaces $ E_{\alpha}^{s,p}(\R^n_+)$ $(\alpha\in \R^n,\;\;\alpha_1> -\frac{1}{2},...,\alpha_n>-\frac{1}{2}, s\in \R, p\in [1,+\infty])$ are defined on $\R^n_+$ by using Fourier-Bessel transform. Some…

The paper gives a detailed survey of recent results on elliptic problems in Hilbert spaces of generalized smoothness. The latter are the isotropic H\"ormander spaces $H^{s,\varphi}:=B_{2,\mu}$, with $\mu(\xi)=<\xi>^{s}\varphi(<\xi>)$ for…

We study the perturbed Sobolev spaces ${H^{s,p}_\alpha(\mathbb{R}^d)}$, associated with singular perturbation $\Delta_\alpha$ of Laplace operator in Euclidean space of dimensions 2 and 3. We extend the $L^2$ theory of perturbed Sobolev…

Let $L$ be a one-to-one operator of type $\omega$ in $L^2(\mathbb{R}^n)$, with $\omega\in[0,\,\pi/2)$, which has a bounded holomorphic functional calculus and satisfies the Davies-Gaffney estimates. Let $p(\cdot):\ \mathbb{R}^n\to(0,\,1]$…

In this paper we study approximations of functions of Sobolev spaces $W^2_{p,\loc}(\Omega)$, $\Omega\subset\mathbb R^n$, by Lipschitz continuous functions. We prove that if $f\in W^2_{p,\loc}(\Omega)$, $1\leq p<\infty$, then there exists a…

In this paper the dependence of the best constants in Sobolev and Gagliardo-Nirenberg inequalities on the precise form of the Sobolev space norm is investigated. The analysis is carried out on general graded Lie groups, thus including the…
