We prove that for a bounded simply connected domain $\Omega\subset \mathbb R^2$, the Sobolev space $W^{1,\,\infty}(\Omega)$ is dense in $W^{1,\,p}(\Omega)$ for any $1\le p<\infty$. Moreover, we show that if $\Omega$ is Jordan, then…

In order to construct regularizations of continuous linear functionals acting on Sobolev spaces such as $W_0^{1,q}(\Omega)$, where $1<q<\infty$ and $\Omega$ is a Lipschitz domain, we propose a projection method in negative Sobolev spaces…

We show that Sobolev space $W^1_1(\Omega)$ of any planar one-connected domain $\Omega$ has the Bounded Approximation property. The result holds independently from the properties of the boundary of $\Omega$. The prove is based on a new…

If $\Omega \subset \R^n$ is a smooth bounded domain and $q \in (0, \frac{n}{n-1})$ we consider the Poincare-Sobolev inequality \[ c \Bigl(\int_{\Omega} \abs{u}^\frac{n}{n-1}\Bigr)^{1-\frac{1}{n}} \le \int_{\Omega} \abs{Du}, \] for every $u…

We consider second-order uniformly elliptic operators subject to Dirichlet boundary conditions. Such operators are considered on a bounded domain $\Omega$ and on the domain $\phi(\Omega)$ resulting from $\Omega$ by means of a bi-Lipschitz…

We show that in a bounded simply connected planar domain $\Omega$ the smooth Sobolev functions $W^{k,\infty}(\Omega)\cap C^\infty(\Omega)$ are dense in the homogeneous Sobolev spaces $L^{k,p}(\Omega)$.

In this paper, we mainly employed the idea of the previous paper to study the sharp uniform $W^{1,p}$ estimates with $1<p\leq \infty$ for more general elliptic systems with the Neumann boundary condition on a bounded $C^{1,\eta}$ domain,…

Let $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^{n+1}$, $n\geq 2$, be 1-sided NTA domain (aka uniform domain), i.e. a domain which satisfies interior Corkscrew and Harnack Chain conditions, and assume that $\partial\Omega$ is $n$-dimensional Ahlfors-David…

We prove that almost every level set of a Sobolev function in a planar domain consists of points, Jordan curves, or homeomorphic copies of an interval. For monotone Sobolev functions in the plane we have the stronger conclusion that almost…
