Trace theorems are proved for non-isotropic Sobolev and $L^p$-Lipschitz spaces defined by vector fields satisfying H\"ormander's bracket condition of order 2. It is shown that the loss of regularity by traces is the same as in the classical…

A free homotopy decomposition of any continuous map from a compact Riemmanian manifold $\mathcal{M}$ to a compact Riemannian manifold $\mathcal{N}$ into a finite number maps belonging to a finite set is constructed, in such a way that the…

We study properties of $W_0^{1,p}(\mathbb{R}_+,t^\beta)$ - the completion of $C_0^\infty(\mathbb{R}_+)$ in the power-weighted Sobolev spaces $W^{1,p}(\mathbb{R}_+,t^\beta)$, where $\beta\in\mathbb{R}$. Among other results, we obtain the…

A full interpolation theory for Sobolev functions with smoothness between 0 and 1 and vanishing trace on a part of the boundary of an open set is established. Geometric assumptions are of mostly measure theoretic nature and reach beyond…

We provide a simplified proof of the existence, under some assumptions, of a spectral gap for the Perron-Frobenius operator of piecewise uniformly expanding maps on Riemannian manifolds when acting on some Sobolev spaces. Its consequences…

In this paper, we study the traces and the extensions for weighted Sobolev spaces on upper half spaces when the weights reach to the borderline cases. We first give a full characterization of the existence of trace spaces for these weighted…

Wenger and Young proved that the pair $(\mathbb{R}^m,\mathbb{H}^n)$ has the Lipschitz extension property for $m \leq n$ where $\mathbb{H}^n$ is the sub-Riemannian Heisenberg group. That is, for some $C>0$, any $L$-Lipschitz map from a…

We study problems related to continuous boundary extension of mappings of Orlicz-Sobolev classes in terms of prime ends. The results we obtain concern the case when the mappings are open, discrete, but not closed (not preserving the…

We develop a general method to calculate entropy numbers of standard Sobolev's classes on an arbitrary compact homogeneous Riemannian manifold. Our method is essentially based on a detailed study of geometric characteristics of norms…

Given a complete noncompact Riemannian manifold $N^n$, we investigate whether the set of bounded Sobolev maps $(W^{1, p} \cap L^\infty) (Q^m; N^n)$ on the cube $Q^m$ is strongly dense in the Sobolev space $W^{1, p} (Q^m; N^n)$ for $1 \le p…

Let $\Sigma$ a closed $n$-dimensional manifold, $\mathcal{N} \subset \mathbb{R}^M$ be a closed manifold, and $u \in W^{s,\frac ns}(\Sigma,\mathcal{N})$ for $s\in(0,1)$. We extend the monumental work of Sacks and Uhlenbeck by proving that if…

We study the pullback theorem of Sobolev mappings on Carnot groups via mollification of mappings. With the pullback theorem we extend the classical result proved by Xiangdong Xie : Rigidity of Sobolev mappings $W^{1,p}(G_1;G_2)$ for…

We consider the following trace function on n-tuples of positive operators: \Phi_p(A_1,A_2,...,A_n) = Trace (\sum_{j=1}^n A_j^p)^{1/p} and prove that it is jointly concave for 0<p\le 1 and convex for p=2. We then derive from this a…

Let $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^n$ be a bounded $(\varepsilon,\infty)$-domain with $\varepsilon\in(0,1]$, $X(\mathbb{R}^n)$ a ball Banach function space satisfying some extra mild assumptions, and $\{\rho_\nu\}_{\nu\in(0,\nu_0)}$ with…

We characterise the trace spaces arising from intersections of weighted, vector-valued Sobolev spaces, where the weights are powers of the distance to the boundary. These weighted function spaces are particularly suitable for treating…

We study mappings with bounded (p,q)-distortion associated to Sobolev spaces on Carnot groups. Mappings of such type have applications to the Sobolev type embedding theory and classification of manifolds. For this class of mappings, we…

For $1<p<\infty$ we give a characterization of the Sobolev space $\dot W^{1,p}(\mathbb R^d)$ in terms of the oscillations of a function on balls of varying centers and radii. Our work is motivated both by the study of trace ideal properties…

We consider the problem of strong density of smooth maps in the Sobolev space $ W^{s,p}(Q^{m};\mathcal{N}) $, where $ 0 < s < +\infty $, $ 1 \leq p < +\infty $, $ Q^{m} $ is the unit cube in $ \mathbb{R}^{m} $, and $ \mathcal{N} $ is a…
