We present a unified strategy to derive Hardy-Poincar\'e inequalities on bounded and unbounded domains. The approach allows proving a general Hardy-Poincar\'e inequality from which the classical Poincar\'e and Hardy inequalities immediately…

For metric measure spaces verifying the reduced curvature-dimension condition $CD^*(K,N)$ we prove a series of sharp functional inequalities under the additional assumption of essentially non-branching. Examples of spaces entering this…

We establish a uniform Sobolev inequality for K\"ahler metrics, which only require an entropy bound and no lower bound on the Ricci curvature. We further extend our Sobolev inequality to singular K\"ahler metrics on K\"ahler spaces with…

In this article we exhibit the largest constant in a quadratic isoperimetric inequality which ensures that a geodesic metric space is Gromov hyperbolic. As a particular consequence we obtain that Euclidean space is a borderline case for…

We classify local minimizers of $\int\sigma_2+\oint H_2$ among all conformally flat metrics in the Euclidean $(n+1)$-ball, $4\leq n\leq 5$, for which the boundary has unit volume, subject to an ellipticity assumption. We also classify local…

We establish sharp Adams type inequalities on Sobolev spaces $W^{\alpha, n/\alpha}(X)$ of any fractional order $\alpha< n$ on Riemannian symmetric space $X$ of noncompact type with dimension $n$ and of arbitrary rank. We also establish…

The paper deals about Hardy-type inequalities associated with the following higher order Poincar\'e inequality: $$ \left( \frac{N-1}{2} \right)^{2(k -l)} := \inf_{ u \in C_{c}^{\infty} \setminus \{0\}} \frac{\int_{\mathbb{H}^{N}}…

The paper raises a question about the optimal critical nonlinearity for the Sobolev space in two dimensions, connected to loss of compactness, and discusses the pertinent concentration compactness framework. We study properties of the…

Let D be a bounded domain in n-dimensional Euclidean space, where n>2, and let 1<p< (2n)/(n-2). We prove a reverse-Holder inequality for functions realizing equality in the Sobolev inequality, which finds a lower bound for their (p-1)-norm…

Given a smooth, complete Riemannian manifold $M$ with bounded Ricci curvature and positive injectivity radius, we derive a sharp Sobolev inequality for the embedding of $W^{1,p}(M)$ into $L^{\frac{np}{n-p}}(M)$, when $1\le p< n$. We will…

This paper establishes a bivariate Hardy-Sobolev inequality. Let $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^N$ ($N \geq 3$) be an open domain, $s \in (0,2)$, $\alpha > 1$, $\beta > 1$ with $\alpha + \beta = 2^*(s)$, and $\kappa \in \mathbb{R}$. For any…

We prove that the isoperimetric inequalities in the euclidean and hyperbolic plane hold for all euclidean, respectively hyperbolic, cone-metrics on a disk with singularities of negative curvature. This is a discrete analog of the theorems…

Frank and Lieb gave a new, rearrangement-free, proof of the sharp Hardy-Littlewood-Sobolev inequalities by exploiting their conformal covariance. Using this they gave new proofs of sharp Sobolev inequalities for the embeddings…

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…

It is known that classical Hardy and Sobolev inequalities hold when the exponent $p$ and the dimension $N$ satisfy $p < N < \infty$. In this note, we consider two limits of Hardy and Sobolev inequalities as $p \nearrow N$ and $N \nearrow…

This note is concerned with the Bianchi-Egnell inequality, which quantifies the stability of the Sobolev inequality, and its generalization to fractional exponents $s \in (0, \frac{d}{2})$. We prove that in dimension $d \geq 2$ the best…
