In the cases where there is no Sobolev-type or Gagliardo-Nirenberg-type fractional estimate involving $\lvert u\rvert_{W^{s,p}}$, we establish alternative estimates where the strong $L^p$ norms are replaced by Lorentz norms.

The usual Sobolev inequality in $\mathbb{R}^N$, asserts that $\|\nabla u\|_{L^p(\mathbb{R}^N)} \geq \mathcal{S}\|u\|_{L^{p^*}(\mathbb{R}^N)}$ for $1<p<N$ and $p^*=\frac{pN}{N-p}$, with $\mathcal{S}$ being the sharp constant. Based on a…

We provide answers to some questions raised in a recent work by H. Brezis, J. Van Schaftingen and Po-Lam Yung concerning the Gagliardo semi-norm $|u|_{W^{s,q}}$ computed at $s = 1$, when the strong $L^q$ is replaced by weak $L^q$. In…

In this note, we establish a strong form of the quantitive Sobolev inequality in Euclidean space for $p \in (1,n)$. Given any function $u \in \dot W^{1,p}(\mathbb{R}^n)$, the gap in the Sobolev inequality controls $\| \nabla u -\nabla…

We prove a strong form of the quantitative Sobolev inequality in $\mathbb{R}^n$ for $p\geq 2$, where the deficit of a function $u\in \dot W^{1,p} $ controls $\| \nabla u -\nabla v\|_{L^p}$ for an extremal function $v$ in the Sobolev…

Zhang refined the classical Sobolev inequality $\|f\|_{L^{Np/(N-p)}} \lesssim \| \nabla f \|_{L^p}$, where $1\leq p \lt N$, by replacing $\|\nabla f\|_{L^p}$ with a smaller quantity invariant by unimodular affine transformations. The…

We establish the unique solvability of solutions in Sobolev spaces to linear parabolic equations in a more general form than those in the literature. A distinguishing feature of our equations is the inclusion of a half-order time derivative…

We prove Gagliardo-Nirenberg interpolation inequalities estimating the Sobolev semi-norm in terms of the bounded mean oscillation semi-norm and a Sobolev semi-norm, with some of the Sobolev semi-norms having fractional order.

We give $L^p$ estimates for the second derivatives of weak solutions to the Dirichlet problem for equation $\Div(\mathbf{A}\nabla u) = f$ in $\Omega\subset \mathbb{R}^d$ with Sobolev coefficients. In particular, for $f\in L^2(\Omega)…

In this article, we establish a nearly sharp localized weighted inequality related to Gagliardo and Sobolev seminorms, respectively, with the sharp $A_1$-weight constant or with the specific $A_p$-weight constant when $p\in (1,\infty)$. As…

This note proves sharp affine Gagliardo-Nirenberg inequalities which are stronger than all known sharp Euclidean Gagliardo-Nirenberg inequalities and imply the affine $L^{p}-$Sobolev inequalities. The logarithmic version of affine…

Using a dimension reduction argument and a stability version of the weighted Sobolev inequality on half space recently proved by Seuffert, we establish, in this paper, some stability estimates (or quantitative estimates) for a family of the…

In this paper we study how the (normalised) Gagliardo semi-norms $[u]_{W^{s,p} (\mathbb{R}^n)}$ control translations. In particular, we prove that $\| u(\cdot + y) - u \|_{L^p (\mathbb{R}^n)} \le C [ u ] _{W^{s,p} (\mathbb{R}^n)} |y|^s$ for…

We prove weighted inequalities between the Gagliardo and Sobolev seminorms and also between the Marcinkiewicz quasi-norm and the Sobolev seminorm. With $A_1$ weights we improve earlier results of Bourgain, Brezis, and Mironescu.

We study connections between the $W^1_p$-differentiability and the $L_p$-differentiability of Sobolev functions. We prove that, $W^1_p$-differentiability implies the $L_p$-differentiability, but the opposite implication is not valid. The…

Recently, Brezis, Van Schaftingen and the second author established a new formula for the $\dot{W}^{1,p}$ norm of a function in $C^{\infty}_c(\mathbb{R}^N)$. The formula was obtained by replacing the $L^p(\mathbb{R}^{2N})$ norm in the…

We obtain $L_p$ estimates for fractional parabolic equations with space-time non-local operators $$ \partial_t^\alpha u - Lu + \lambda u= f \quad \mathrm{in} \quad (0,T) \times \mathbb{R}^d,$$ where $\partial_t^\alpha u$ is the Caputo…

By adapting the mass transportation technique of Cordero-Erausquin, Nazaret and Villani, we obtain a family of sharp Sobolev and Gagliardo-Nirenberg (GN) inequalities on the half space $\mathbf{R}^{n-1}\times\mathbf{R}_+$, $n\geq 1$…

We present a Gagliardo-Nirenberg inequality which bounds Lorentz norms of the function by Sobolev norms and homogeneous Besov quasinorms with negative smoothness. We prove also other versions involving Besov or Triebel-Lizorkin quasinorms.…

We establish new $p$-estimates for the norm of the generalized Beurling--Ahlfors transform $\mathcal{S}$ acting on form-valued functions. Namely, we prove that $\norm{\mathcal{S}}_{L^p(\R^n;\Lambda)\to L^p(\R^n;\Lambda)}\leq n(p^{*}-1)$…
