There is a rich theory of existence theorems for minimizers over reflexive Sobolev spaces (ex. Eberlein-\v{S}mulian theorem). However, the existence theorems for many variational problems over non-reflexive Sobolev spaces remain…

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…
