Let $\Omega$ be a strictly pseudoconvex domain in $\mathbb{C}^n$ with $C^{k+2}$ boundary, $k \geq 1$. We construct a $\overline\partial$ solution operator (depending on $k$) that gains $\frac12$ derivative in the Sobolev space $H^{s,p}…

We characterize one-sided weighted Sobolev spaces $W^{1,p}(\mathbb{R},\omega)$, where $\omega$ is a one-sided Sawyer weight, in terms of a.e.~and weighted $L^p$ limits as $\alpha\to1^-$ of Marchaud fractional derivatives of order $\alpha$.…
