We show that every Sobolev function in $W^{1,p}_{\textrm{loc}}(U)$ on a $p$-quasiopen set $U \subset {\bf R}^n$ with a.e.-vanishing $p$-fine gradient is a.e.-constant if and only if $U$ is $p$-quasiconnected. To prove this we use the theory…

We show that the members of the Lipschitz-free space of $[-1,1]^n$ are exactly the 0-dimensional flat currents whose "boundary" vanishes. The connection with normal and flat currents allows to use the Federer-Fleming compactness and…

We show existence and uniqueness for the solutions of the regularity and the Neumann problems for harmonic functions on Lipschitz domains with data in the Hardy spaces H^p, p>2/3, where This in turn implies that solutions to the Dirichlet…

On a general open set of the euclidean space, we study the relation between the embedding of the homogeneous Sobolev space $\mathcal{D}^{1,p}_0$ into $L^q$ and the summability properties of the distance function. We prove that in the…

We prove the continuity of Sobolev functions $\varphi \in W^{1,n}_{\mathrm{loc}}(\Omega)$, $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^n$, that satisfy \[ \lvert\nabla \varphi(x)\rvert^n \le K(x)\bigl(\langle \nabla \varphi(x), \xi(x)\rangle + A(x)\bigr),…

We study the pointwise regularity of energy densities associated with harmonic functions on the $N$-dimensional Sierpinski gasket $(N\ge 2)$ with respect to the Kusuoka measure. For any nonconstant harmonic function, we prove that every…

We show that, under certain geometric conditions, there are no nonconstant quasiminimizers with finite $p$th power energy in a (not necessarily complete) metric measure space equipped with a globally doubling measure supporting a global…

We describe some sufficient conditions, under which smooth and compactly supported functions are or are not dense in the fractional Sobolev space $W^{s,p}(\Omega)$ for an open, bounded set $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^{d}$. The density property…

For each $p>1$ and each positive integer $m$ we use divided differences to give intrinsic characterizations of the restriction of the Sobolev space $W^m_p(R)$ to an arbitrary closed subset of the real line.

We present several results on smoothness in $L_{p}$ sense of filtering densities under the Lipschitz continuity assumption on the coefficients of a partially observable diffusion processes. We obtain them by rewriting in divergence form…

Let $\Lambda_s$ denote the Lipschitz space of order $s\in(0,\infty)$ on $\mathbb{R}^n$, which consists of all $f\in\mathfrak{C}\cap L^\infty$ such that, for some constant $L\in(0,\infty)$ and some integer $r\in(s,\infty)$, \begin{equation*}…

We establish that the $p$-conformal energy, $p\geq 1$, defined by the $L^p$-norms of the distortion of Sobolev mappings, is a proper functional on the Teichm\"uller space of Riemann surfaces of a fixed genus. This result is an application…

It is known that if finite subsets of a locally finite metric space $M$ admit $C$-bilipschitz embeddings into $\ell_p$ $(1\le p\le \infty)$, then for every $\epsilon>0$, the space $M$ admits a $(C+\epsilon)$-bilipschitz embedding into…

We obtain Lipschitz estimates for bounded minimizers of functionals with nonstandard $(p,q)$-growth satisfying the dimension-independent restriction $q<p+2$ with $p \geq 2$. This relation improves existing restrictions when $p \leq N-1$,…

For a compact metric space $K$ the space $\Lip(K)$ has the Daugavet property if and only if the norm of every $f \in \Lip(K)$ is attained locally. If $K$ is a subset of an $L_p$-space, $1<p<\infty$, this is equivalent to the convexity of…

In this paper, the authors characterize Sobolev spaces $W^{\alpha,p}({\mathbb R}^n)$ with the smoothness order $\alpha\in(0,2]$ and $p\in(\max\{1, \frac{2n}{2\alpha+n}\},\infty)$, via the Lusin area function and the Littlewood-Paley…

It is a well-known fact that in a Lipschitz domain \Omega\subset R^n a p-Hardy inequality, with weight d(x,\partial\Omega)^\beta, holds for all u\in C_0^\infty(\Omega) whenever \beta<p-1. We show that actually the same is true under the…

We use the theory of rectifiable metric spaces to define a Dirichlet energy of Lipschitz functions defined on the support of integral currents. This energy is obtained by integration of the square of the norm of the tangential derivative,…

We show that any non-zero Banach space with a separable dual contains a totally disconnected, closed and bounded subset S of Hausdorff dimension 1 such that every Lipschitz function on the space is Fr\'echet differentiable somewhere in S.

We consider a class of functions defined on metric spaces which generalizes the concept of piecewise Lipschitz continuous functions on an interval or on polyhedral structures. The study of such functions requires the investigation of their…
