Let $\Omega$ be an open convex set in ${\mathbb R}^m$ with finite width, and let $v_{\Omega}$ be the torsion function for $\Omega$, i.e. the solution of $-\Delta v=1, v\in H_0^1(\Omega)$. An upper bound is obtained for the product of $\Vert…

We prove that a trace inequality holds for John domains $\Omega$ satisfying $$ \mathcal H^{n-1}(\partial \Omega\setminus \partial_*\Omega)=0,$$ where $\partial_*\Omega$ denotes the measure-theoretic boundary, together with an upper density…

A basilar property and a useful tool in the theory of Sobolev spaces is the density of smooth compactly supported functions in the space $W^{k,p}(\R^n)$ (i.e. the functions with weak derivatives of orders $0$ to $k$ in $L^p$). On Riemannian…

Let $(M,\omega)$ be an almost symplectic manifold ($\omega$ is a non degenerate, not closed, 2-form). We say that a vector field $X$ of $M$ is locally Hamiltonian if $L_X\omega=0,d(i(X)\omega)=0$, and it is Hamiltonian if, furthermore, the…

For a field $\mathbb{F}$ and integers $d, k$ and $\ell$, a set $A \subseteq \mathbb{F}^d$ is called $(k,\ell)$-nearly orthogonal if all vectors in $A$ are non-self-orthogonal and every $k+1$ vectors in $A$ contain $\ell + 1$ pairwise…

In this paper, we study a newly developed shearlet system on bounded domains which yields frames for $H^s(\Omega)$ for some $s\in \mathbb{N}$, $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^2$. We will derive approximation rates with respect to $H^s(\Omega)$…
