Let $\Lambda \subset R$ be a strictly increasing sequence. For $r = 1,2$, we give a simple explicit expression for an equivalent norm on the trace spaces $W_p^r(R)|_\Lambda$, $L_p^r(R)|_\Lambda$ of the non-homogeneous and homogeneous…
We present the fractional perimeter as a set-function interpolation between the Lebesgue measure and the perimeter in the sense of De Giorgi. Our motivation comes from a new fractional Boxing inequality that relates the fractional perimeter…
The paper is concerned with higher order Calderon-Zygmund estimates for the $p$-Laplace equation $$ -\textrm{div}(A(\nabla u)) := -\textrm{div}{(|\nabla u|^{p-2}\nabla u)}=-\textrm{div} F, \qquad 1<p<\infty. $$ We are able to transfer local…
We establish a new theory of regularity for elliptic complex valued second order equations of the form $\mathcal L=$div$A(\nabla\cdot)$, when the coefficients of the matrix $A$ satisfy a natural algebraic condition, a strengthened version…
We prove the $W^{1,2}_p$-estimate and solvability for the Dirichlet problem of second-order parabolic equations in simple convex polytopes with time irregular coefficients, when $p\in (1,2]$. We also consider the corresponding Neumann…
Let $Z$ be an Ahlfors $Q$-regular compact metric measure space, where $Q>0$. For $p>1$ we introduce a new (fractional) Sobolev space $A^p(Z)$ consisting of functions whose extensions to the hyperbolic filling of $Z$ satisfies a weak-type…
We study a class of non-divergence form elliptic and parabolic equations with singular first-order coefficients in an upper half space with the homogeneous Dirichlet boundary condition. In the simplest setting, the operators in the…
We describe a procedure to introduce Sobolev spaces and the semigroup generated by the fractional Dirichlet Laplacian on an arbitrary domain of $\R^d$. In particular, the well-definedness of the spaces of both non-homogeneous and…
In this note we consider a generalisation to the metric setting of the recent work [Gu-Yung, JFA 281 (2021), 109075]. In particular, we show that under relatively weak conditions on a metric measure space $(X,d,\nu)$, it holds true that \[…
This work focuses on an improved fractional Sobolev inequality with a remainder term involving the Hardy-Littlewood-Sobolev inequality which has been proved recently. By extending a recent result on the standard Laplacian to the fractional…
We prove a trace formula for integration by parts on subanalytic bounded submanifolds of $\mathbb{R}^n$, possibly non closed. We also establish density results for $\mathbf{W}^{1,p}_\nabla (M)$, $M$ bounded subanalytic manifold, which is…
This paper deals with a notion of Sobolev space $W^{1,p}$ introduced by J.Bourgain, H.Brezis and P.Mironescu by means of a seminorm involving local averages of finite differences. This seminorm was subsequently used by A.Ponce to obtain a…
We establish the global existence of a class of strongly coupled parabolic systems. The necessary apriori estimates will be obtained via our new approach to the regularity theory of parabolic scalar equations with integrable data and new…
We present several Liouville type results for the $p$-Laplacian in $\R^N$. Suppose that $h$ is a nonnegative regular function such that $$ h(x) = a|x|^\gamma\ {\rm for}\ |x|\ {\rm large},\ a>0\ {\rm and}\ \gamma> -p. $$ We obtain the…
The $L^p$-spaces, with $p \not = \infty$, form a partial algebra $(L^p(\Omega), \Gamma, \cdot)$ with pointwise multiplication of functions. The Sobolev spaces $W^{k,p}(\Omega)$, delineated by weak derivatives as subspaces of $L^p$-spaces is…
The $L^{p,\infty}$ quasi-norm of functions on a measure space can be characterized in terms of their pairing with normalized characteristic functions. We generalize this result to the case of the outer $L^{p,\infty}$ quasi-norms for…
In our previous papers \cite{Li2008, Li2011}, we proved some martingale transform representation formulas for the Riesz transforms and the Beurling-Ahlfors transforms on complete Riemannian manifolds, and proved some explicit $L^p$-norm…
A discrete version of the symmetric duality of Caputo-Torres, to relate left and right Riemann-Liouville and Caputo fractional differences, is considered. As a corollary, we provide an evidence to the fact that in case of right fractional…
We prove uniform Sobolev estimates $||u||_{L^{p'}} \leq C ||(\Delta-\alpha)u||_{L^{p}}$, where $p=2n/(n+2), p'=2n/(n-2)$, for the Laplacian $\Delta$ on non-trapping asymptotically conic manifolds of dimension $n$. Here C is independent of…
This paper considers the inverse boundary value problem for the equation $\nabla\cdot(\sigma\nabla u+a|\nabla u|^{p-2}\nabla u)=0$. We give a procedure for the recovery of the coefficients $\sigma$ and $a$ from the corresponding…
