For a regular (in a sense) mapping $v:\mathbb{R}^n \to \mathbb{R}^d$ we study the following problem: {\sl let $S$ be a subset of $m$-critical a set $\tilde Z_{v,m}=\{{\rm rank} \nabla v\le m\}$ and the equality $\mathcal{H}^\tau(S)=0$ (or…

We investigate connections between Hardy's inequality in the whole space $\mathbb{R}^n$ and embedding inequalities for Sobolev-Lorentz spaces. In particular, we complete previous results due to [A. Alvino, Sulla diseguaglianza di Sobolev in…

This paper investigates sharp stability estimates for the fractional Hardy-Sobolev inequality: $$\mu_{s,t}\left(\mathbb{R}^N\right) \left(\int_{\mathbb{R}^N} \frac{|u|^{2^*_s(t)}}{|x|^t} \,{\rm d}x \right)^{\frac{2}{2^*_s(t)}} \leq…

We study weak solutions and minimizers $u$ of the non-autonomous problems $\operatorname{div} A(x, Du)=0$ and $\min_v \int_\Omega F(x,Dv)\,dx$ with quasi-isotropic $(p, q)$-growth. We consider the case that $u$ is bounded, H\"older…

We consider the unconstrained $L_2$-$L_p$ minimization: find a minimizer of $\|Ax-b\|^2_2+\lambda \|x\|^p_p$ for given $A \in R^{m\times n}$, $b\in R^m$ and parameters $\lambda>0$, $p\in [0,1)$. This problem has been studied extensively in…
