We study nonuniform Sobolev spaces, i.e., spaces of functions whose partial derivatives lie in possibly different Lebesgue spaces. Although standard proofs do not apply, we show that nonuniform Sobolev spaces share similar properties as the…
Let $\mu$ and $\nu$ be two probability measures on $\R^d$, where $\mu(\d x)= \e^{-V(x)}\d x$ for some $V\in C^1(\R^d)$. Explicit sufficient conditions on $V$ and $\nu$ are presented such that $\mu*\nu$ satisfies the log-Sobolev, Poincar\'e…
We study comprehensively local properties of functions in complex Sobolev spaces on a bounded open subset of $\mathbb{C}^n$. The main tool is the corresponding functional capacity for the space which is inspired by the global one due to…
We introduce the concept of local Poincar\'e constant of a $BV$ function as a tool to understand the relation between its mean oscillation and its total variation at small scales. This enables us to study a variant of the BMO-type seminorms…
We study a class of nonlocal functionals in the spirit of the recent characterization of the Sobolev spaces $W^{1,p}$ derived by Bourgain, Brezis and Mironescu. We show that it provides a common roof to the description of the…
In this paper we make a survey of some recent developments of the theory of Sobolev spaces $W^{1,q}(X,\sfd,\mm)$, $1<q<\infty$, in metric measure spaces $(X,\sfd,\mm)$. In the final part of the paper we provide a new proof of the…

In this paper, we develop the theory of Sobolev spaces on locally finite graphs, including completeness, reflexivity, separability, and Sobolev inequalities. Since there is no exact concept of dimension on graphs, classical methods that…
We prove generalizations of the Poincare and logarithmic Sobolev inequalities corresponding to the case of fractional derivatives in measure spaces with only a minimal amount of geometric structure. The class of such spaces includes (but is…
Numerous characterizations of Sobolev norms via the asymptotic behavior of non-local functionals have been established over the past decades; however, their validity beyond the PI framework remains poorly understood. We establish such a…
For $p>1$, we study subordination phenomena for local and non-local regular $p$-energies on metric measure spaces. Under suitable geometric assumptions, we show that if a local regular $p$-energy satisfies a Poincar\'e inequality together…
We prove a Poincar\'e, and a general Sobolev type inequalities for functions with compact support defined on a $k$-rectifiable varifold $V$ defined on a complete Riemannian manifold with positive injectivity radius and sectional curvature…
In this article, we introduce classes of functions whose increment is controlled by the measure of a ball containing the corresponding points and a nonnegative function p(.) that is summable with respect to measure. These classes of…
We consider generalised Mehler semigroups and, assuming the existence of an associated invariant measure $\sigma$, we prove functional integral inequalities with respect to $\sigma$, such as logarithmic Sobolev and Poincar\'{e} type.…

In this paper we give various characterizations of quasiopen sets and quasicontinuous functions on metric spaces. For complete metric spaces equipped with a doubling measure supporting a p-Poincar\'e inequality we show that quasiopen and…

We develop a theory of BV and Sobolev Spaces via integration by parts formula in abstract metric spaces; the role of vector fields is played by Weaver's metric derivations. The definition hereby given is shown to be equivalent to many…
The canonical generalizations of two classical norms on Besov spaces are shown to be equivalent even in the case of non-linear Besov spaces, that is, function spaces consisting of functions taking values in a metric space and equipped with…
We investigate two types of characterizations for anisotropic Sobolev and BV spaces. In particular, we establish anisotropic versions of the Bourgain-Brezis-Mironescu formula, including the magnetic case both for Sobolev and BV functions.
