In this paper, we prove a new continuous embedding theorem for fractional Sobolev spaces with variable exponents into variable exponent Lebesgue spaces on unbounded domains. As an application, we study a class of nonlocal elliptic problems…

In this paper we propose a unified approach, based on limiting interpolation, to investigate the embeddings for the Sobolev space $(\dot{W}^k_p(\mathcal{X}))_0, \, \mathcal{X} \in \{\mathbb{R}^d, \mathbb{T}^d, \Omega\}$, in the subcritical…

We show that there exists a quantum compact metric space which underlies the setting of each Sobolev algebra associated to a subelliptic Laplacian $\Delta=-(X_1^2+\cdots+X_m^2)$ on a compact connected Lie group $G$ if $p$ is large enough,…

The article deals with a simplified proof of the Sobolev embedding theorem for Lizorkin--Triebel spaces (that contain the $L_p$-Sobolev spaces $H^s_p$ as special cases). The method extends to a proof of the corresponding fact for general…

We develop an intrinsic, heat-kernel based fractional Sobolev framework on closed Riemannian manifolds and study the critical fractional Sobolev embedding. We determine the optimal coefficient of the lower-order $L^{p}$ term and prove that…

It is well-known that the embedding of the Sobolev space of weakly differentiable functions into H\"{o}lder spaces holds if the integrability exponent is higher than the space dimension. In this paper, the embedding of the Sobolev functions…

In this article, we give probabilistic versions of Sobolev embeddings on any Riemannian manifold $(M,g)$. More precisely, we prove that for natural probability measures on $L^2(M)$, almost every function belong to all spaces $L^p(M)$,…

We prove a comparison principle for positive supersolutions and subsolutions to the Lane-Emden equation for the $p-$Laplacian, with subhomogeneous power in the right-hand side. The proof uses variational tools and the result applies with no…

We study when and how the norm of a function $u$ in the homogeneous Sobolev spaces $\dot{W}^{s, p} (\mathbb{R}^n, \mathbb{R}^m)$, with $p \ge 1$ and either $s = 1$ or $s > 1/p$, is controlled by the norm of composite function $f \circ u$ in…

It is well known that Sobolev embeddings can be improved in the presence of symmetries. In this article, we considere the situation in which given a domain $\Omega=\Omega_1 \times \Omega_2$ in $\mathbb{R}^N$ with a cylindrical symmetry, and…

It is common that a Sobolev space defined on $\mathbb{R}^m$ has a non-compact embedding into an $L^p$-space, but it has subspaces for which this embedding becomes compact. There are three well known cases of such subspaces, the Rellich…

The Riemann Mapping Theorem states existence of a conformal homeomorphism $\varphi$ of a simply connected plane domain $\Omega\subset\mathbb C$ with non-empty boundary onto the unit disc $\mathbb D\subset \mathbb C$. In the first part of…

The structure of non-compactness of optimal Sobolev embeddings of $m$-th order into the class of Lebesgue spaces and into that of all rearrangement-invariant function spaces is quantitatively studied. Sharp two-sided estimates of Bernstein…

We establish equivalence between the boundedness of specific supremum operators and the optimality of function spaces in Sobolev embeddings acting on domains in ambient Euclidean space with a prescribed isoperimetric behavior. Our approach…

It has been known since 1996 that a lower bound for the measure, $\mu(B(x,r))\geq br^s$, implies Sobolev embedding theorems for Sobolev spaces $M^{1,p}$ defined on metric-measure spaces. We prove that, in fact Sobolev embeddings for…

We completely characterize the validity of the inequality $\|u\|_{Y(\mathbb{R}^n)}\leq C \|\nabla^m u\|_{X(\mathbb{R}^n)}$, where $X$ and $Y$ are rearrangement-invariant spaces, by reducing it to a considerably simpler one-dimensional…

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…

For each $p>2$ we give intrinsic characterizations of the restriction of the homogeneous Sobolev space $L^1_p(R^2)$ to an arbitrary finite subset $E$ of $R^2$. The trace criterion is expressed in terms of certain weighted oscillations of…

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…

We show that independent and uniformly distributed sampling points are as good as optimal sampling points for the approximation of functions from the Sobolev space $W_p^s(\Omega)$ on bounded convex domains $\Omega\subset \mathbb{R}^d$ in…
