For $p>1$, we introduce the cutoff Sobolev inequality on general metric measure spaces, and prove that there exists a metric measure space endowed with a $p$-energy that satisfies the chain condition, the volume regular condition with…

We construct good $p$-energy forms on metric measure spaces as pointwise subsequential limits of Besov-type $p$-energy functionals under certain geometric/analytic conditions. Such forms are often called Korevaar-Schoen $p$-energy forms in…

We consider the variational problem of maximizing the weighted equilibrium Green's energy of a distribution of charges free to move in a subset of the upper half-plane, under a particular external field. We show that this problem admits a…

In a complete metric space that is equipped with a doubling measure and supports a Poincar\'e inequality, we study strict subsets, i.e. sets whose variational capacity with respect to a larger reference set is finite, in the case $p=1$.…

We demonstrate the necessity of a Poincar\'e type inequality for those metric measure spaces that satisfy Cheeger's generalization of Rademacher's theorem for all Lipschitz functions taking values in a Banach space with the Radon-Nikodym…

For $p>1$, and for a $p$-energy on a metric measure space, we provide various geometric and functional conditions for the validity of the cutoff Sobolev inequality. In particular, we employ a technique of Trudinger and Wang [Amer. J. Math.…

We show that a class of spaces of vector fields whose semi-norms involve the magnitude of "directional" difference quotients is in fact equivalent to the class of fractional Sobolev spaces. The equivalence can be considered a Korn-type…

We prove a general criterion for the density in energy of suitable subalgebras of Lipschitz functions in the metric-Sobolev space $H^{1,p}(X,\mathsf{d},\mathfrak{m})$ associated with a positive and finite Borel measure $\mathfrak{m}$ in a…

On metric spaces equipped with doubling measures, we prove that a differentiability theorem holds for Lipschitz functions if and only if the space supports nontrivial (metric) derivations in the sense of Weaver that satisfy an additional…

In the first part Busemann concavity as non-negative curvature is introduced and a bi-Lipschitz splitting theorem is shown. Furthermore, if the Hausdorff measure of a Busemann concave space is non-trivial then the space is doubling and…

We study the incompressible stationary Navier-Stokes equations in the upper-half plane with homogeneous Dirichlet boundary condition and non-zero external forcing terms. Existence of weak solutions is proved under a suitable condition on…

As the energy of any map $v$ from $S^2$ to $S^2$ is at least $4\pi \vert deg(v)\vert$ with equality if and only if $v$ is a rational map one might ask whether maps with small energy defect $\delta_v=E(v)-4\pi \vert deg(v)\vert$ are…

The present note contains a review of $p$-energies and Sobolev spaces on metric measure spaces that carry a strongly local regular Dirichlet form. These Sobolev spaces are then used to generalize some basic results from the calculus of…

We propose a definition of the Dirichlet energy (which is roughly speaking the integral of the square of the gradient) for mappings mu : Omega -> (P(D), W\_2) defined over a subset Omega of R^p and valued in the space P(D) of probability…

Reparametrization invariant Sobolev metrics on spaces of regular curves have been shown to be of importance in the field of mathematical shape analysis. For practical applications, one usually discretizes the space of smooth curves and…

This is the first of two works concerning the Sobolev calculus on metric measure spaces and its applications. In this work, we focus on several notions of metric Sobolev space and on their equivalence. More precisely, we give a systematic…

In this paper, we introduce a new energy density function $\mathscr Y$ on the projective bundle $\mathbb{P}(T_M)\>M$ for a smooth map $f:(M,h)\>(N,g)$ between Riemannian manifolds $$\mathscr Y=g_{ij}f^i_\alpha f^j_\beta \frac{W^\alpha…

We give an affirmative answer to the resistance conjecture on characterization of parabolic Harnack inequalities in terms of volume doubling, upper capacity bounds and a Poincar\'e inequalities. The key step is to show that these three…
