We consider Hardy-Rellich inequalities and discuss their possible improvement. The procedure is based on decomposition into spherical harmonics, where in addition various new inequalities are obtained (e.g. Rellich-Sobolev inequalities). We…

For $p\in (1,\infty)$ and $\alpha\in\mathbb{R}$, we consider measurable functions $g$ on $\mathbb{S}^{N-1}$ that satisfy the following weighted Hardy inequality: \begin{equation}\label{abs} \int_{\mathbb{R}^N}\frac{ g…

Two-sided bounds for the efficiency of the torsion function are obtained in terms of the square of the distance to the boundary function under the hypothesis that the Dirichlet Laplacian satisfies a strong Hardy inequality. Localisation…

In this paper, we prove a $p$-Hardy inequality on the discrete half-line with weights $n^{\alpha}$ for all real $p > 1$. Building on the work of Miclo for $p = 2$ and Muckenhoupt in the continuous settings, we develop a quantitative…

We prove two improved versions of the Hardy-Rellich inequality for the polyharmonic operator $(-\Delta)^m$ involving the distance to the boundary. The first involves an infinite series improvement using logarithmic functions, while the…

The Hardy Inequality (HI) for potentials with countably many singularities of the form $V=\sum_{k\in \mathbf{Z}}\frac{1}{|x-a_k|^2}$ is not a trivial issue. In principle, the more singular poles are, the less the Hardy constant is: it is…

We investigate the possibility of improving the $p$-Poincar\'e inequality $\|\nabla_{\mathbb{H}^N} u\|_p \ge \Lambda_p \|u\|_p$ on the hyperbolic space, where $p>2$ and $\Lambda_p:=[(N-1)/p]^{p}$ is the best constant for which such…

This paper deals with the principal eigenvalue of discrete $p$-Laplacian on the set of nonnegative integers. Alternatively, it is studying the optimal constant of a class of weighted Hardy inequalities. The main goal is the quantitative…

The Hardy--Littlewood inequality for $m$-linear forms on $\ell _{p}$ spaces and $m<p\leq 2m$ asserts that \begin{equation*} \left( \sum_{j_{1},...,j_{m}=1}^{\infty }\left\vert T\left( e_{j_{1}},\ldots ,e_{j_{m}}\right) \right\vert…

We give a simple proof of Hardy's inequality, based on the logarithmic Caccioppoli estimate for p-superharmonic functions in several variables.

In this current work, we revisit the recent improvement of the discrete Hardy's inequality in one dimension and establish an extended improved discrete Hardy's inequality with its optimality. We also study one-dimensional discrete Copson's…

We give a short proof of a recently established Hardy-type inequality due to Keller, Pinchover, and Pogorzelski together with its optimality. Moreover, we identify the remainder term which makes it into an identity.

We study finite sections of weighted Hardy's inequality following the approach of De Bruijn. Similar to the unweighted case, we obtain an asymptotic expression for the optimal constant.

The Hardy constant of a simply connected domain $\Omega\subset\mathbf{R}^2$ is the best constant for the inequality \[ \int_{\Omega}|\nabla u|^2dx \geq c\int_{\Omega} \frac{u^2}{{\rm dist}(x,\partial\Omega)^2}\, dx \; , \;\;\quad u\in…

A Hardy inequality of the form \[\int_{\tilde{\Omega}} |\nabla f({\bf{x}})|^p d {\bf{x}} \ge (\frac{p-1}{p})^p \int_{\tilde{\Omega}} \{1 + a(\delta, \partial \tilde{\Omega})(\x)\}\frac{|f({\bf{x}})|^p}{\delta({\bf{x}})^p} d{\bf{x}}, \] for…

In this work we prove some Hardy-Poincar\'{e} inequalities with quadratic singular potentials localized on the boundary of a smooth domain. Then, we consider conical domains with vertex on the singularity and we show upper and lower bounds…

In a generalization of the classical Hilbert inequality by Hardy, Littlewood and P\'{o}lya, the best constant for an inequality is determined provided that the generating function for the corresponding matrix satisfies certain monotonicity…

A result of Bennett and Grosse-Erdmann characterizes the weights for which the corresponding weighted Hardy inequality holds on the cone of non-negative, non-increasing sequences and a bound for the best constant is given. In this paper, we…

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…

The best constant in the usual Lp norm inequality for the centered Hardy-Littlewood maximal function on R1 is obtained for the class of all ``peak-shaped'' functions. A positive function on the line is called ``peak-shaped'' if it is…
