In this paper we obtain the best constants in some higher order Sobolev inequalities in the critical exponent. These inequalities can be separated into two types: those that embed into $L^\infty(\mathbb{R}^N)$ and those that embed into…
In this paper, we establish a sharp Onofri trace inequality on the upper half space $\overline{\mathbb R_+^n} (n\geq 2)$ by considering the limiting case of Sobolev trace inequality and classify its extremal functions on a suitable weighted…
These notes are an extended version of a series of lectures given at the CIME Summer School in Cetraro in June 2022. The goal is to explain questions about optimal functional inequalities on the example of the sharp Sobolev inequality and…
We study the Sobolev trace constant for functions defined in a bounded domain $\O$ that vanish in the subset $A.$ We find a formula for the first variation of the Sobolev trace with respect to hole. As a consequence of this formula, we…
Sobolev trace inequalities on nonhomogeneous fractional Sobolev spaces are established.
We study the sharp constant in the Hardy inequality for fractional Sobolev spaces defined on open subsets of the Euclidean space. We first list some properties of such a constant, as well as of the associated variational problem. We then…
In this paper we construct a trace operator for homogeneous Sobolev spaces defined on infinite strip-like domains. We identify an intrinsic seminorm on the resulting trace space that makes the trace operator bounded and allows us to…
We establish sharp Sobolev trace inequalities for conformally invariant fractional powers of the sublaplacian on the Heisenberg group and the CR sphere, extending the corresponding Euclidean results of Einav-Loss, Beckner, and…
We study the approximative trace for individual elements in the Sobolev space $W^{1,p}(\Omega)$ for $1\le p\le\infty$. This notion of a trace was introduced for $p=2$ in [AtE11] in the setting of general open sets…
Sharp affine fractional $L^p$ Sobolev inequalities for functions on $\mathbb R^n$ are established. The new inequalities are stronger than (and directly imply) the sharp fractional $L^p$ Sobolev inequalities. They are fractional versions of…
We study fine P\'olya-Szeg\H{o} rearrangement inequalities into weighted intervals for Sobolev functions and functions of bounded variation defined on metric measure spaces supporting an isoperimetric inequality. We then specialize this…
We prove an intrinsic equivalence between strong hypercontractivity and a strong logarithmic Sobolev inequality for the cone of logarithmically subharmonic functions. We introduce a new large class of measures, Euclidean regular and…
We provide a precise statement and self contained proof of a Sobolev inequality (cf. [A, page 236 and page 237]) stated in the original paper. Higher order and fractional inequalities are treated as well.
The paper studies continutity of Moser nonlinearity in two dimensions with respect to weak convergence. Unlike the critical nonlinearity in the Sobolev inequality, which lacks weak continuity at any point, Moser functional fails to be…
We study various generalizations of concentration of measure on the unit sphere, in particular by means of log-Sobolev inequalities. First, we show Sudakov-type concentration results and local semicircular laws for weighted random matrices.…
If one thinks of a Riemannian metric, $g_1$, analogously as the gradient of the corresponding distance function, $d_1$, with respect to a background Riemannian metric, $g_0$, then a natural question arises as to whether a corresponding…
This paper presents three new families of fractional Sobolev spaces and their accompanying theory in one-dimension. The new construction and theory are based on a newly developed notion of weak fractional derivatives, which are natural…
We show that the fractional Sobolev inequality for the embedding $\H \hookrightarrow L^{\frac{2N}{N-s}}(\R^N)$, $s \in (0,N)$ can be sharpened by adding a remainder term proportional to the distance to the set of optimizers. As a corollary,…
By considering a suitable Besov type norm, we obtain refined Sobolev inequalities on a family of Riemannian manifolds with (possibly exponentially large) ends. The interest is twofold: on one hand, these inequalities are stable by…
