In this expository paper, we consider the Hardy-Schr\"odinger operator $-\Delta -\gamma/|x|^2$ on a smooth domain \Omega of R^n with 0\in\bar{\Omega}, and describe how the location of the singularity 0, be it in the interior of \Omega or on…
We prove that if a metric measure space satisfies the volume doubling condition and the Caffarelli-Kohn-Nirenberg inequality with the same exponent $n \ge 3$, then it has exactly the $n$-dimensional volume growth. As an application, if an…
We consider the one-dimensional John-Nirenberg inequality: $$ |\{x\in I_0:|f(x)-f_{I_0}|>\a\}|\le C_1|I_0|\exp\Big(-\frac{C_2}{\|f\|_{*}}\a\Big). $$ A. Korenovskii found that the sharp $C_2$ here is $C_2=2/e$. It is shown in this paper that…
This paper is motivated by the characterization of the optimal symmetry breaking region in Caffarelli-Kohn-Nirenberg inequalities. As a consequence, optimal functions and sharp constants are computed in the symmetry region. The result…
We introduce a family of conformal invariants associated to a smooth metric measure space which generalize the relationship between the Yamabe constant and the best constant for the Sobolev inequality to the best constants for…
The paper provides weighted Sobolev inequalities of the Caffarelli-Kohn-Nirenberg type for functions with multi-radial symmetry. Similarly to the previously studied radial case, the range of parameters in CKN inequalities can be extended,…
Many classical geometric inequalities on functionals of convex bodies depend on the dimension of the ambient space. We show that this dimension dependence may often be replaced (totally or partially) by different symmetry measures of the…
We consider positive critical points of Caffarelli-Kohn-Nirenberg inequalities and prove a Liouville type result which allows us to give a complete classification of the solutions in a certain range of parameters, providing a symmetry…
By employing harmonic analysis techniques, we derive weak-type Caffarelli-Kohn-Nirenberg inequalities under natural parameter conditions. A key feature of these weak-type versions is that they remain valid even at critical parameter values…
We analyze the radial symmetry of extremals for a class of interpolation inequalities known as Caffarelli-Kohn-Nirenberg inequalities, and for a class of weighted logarithmic Hardy inequalities which appear as limiting cases of the first…
To estimate the optimal constant in Hardy-type inequalities, some variational formulas and approximating procedures are introduced. The known basic estimates are improved considerably. The results are illustrated by typical examples. It is…
We modify the action of Mannheim's conformally invariant model by changing the sign of two coefficients. This breaks conformal symmetry, but results in a cosmology that has a positive effective G and at the same time retains one of the main…
Let $M$ be a complete, simply connected Riemannian manifold with negative curvature. We obtain some Moser-Trudinger inequalities with sharp constants on $M$.
Consider the following inequalities due to Caffarelli, Kohn and Nirenberg {\it (Compositio Mathematica,1984):} $$\Big(\int_\Omega \frac{|u|^r}{|x|^s}dx\Big)^{\frac{1}{r}}\leq C(p,q,r,\mu,\sigma,s)\Big(\int_\Omega \frac{|\nabla…
As we showed in [3], a geometric inequality can be regarded as an optimization problem. In this paper we find another proof for a Chen's inequality,regarding the Ricci curvature [2] and we improve this inequality in the Lagrangian case.
We present the best constant and the existence of extremal functions for an Improved Hardy-Sobolev inequality. We prove that, under a proper transformation, this inequality is equivalent to the Sobolev inequality in $\mathbb{R}^N$. We also…
We study the existence of a metric with zero scalar curvature maximizing the isoperimetric ratio among all zero scalar curvature metrics in a fixed conformal class of metrics on a compact manifold with boundary. The question may be reduced…
We establish sharp remainder terms of the $L^{2}$-Caffarelli-Kohn-Niren\-berg inequalities on homogeneous groups, yielding the inequalities with best constants. Our methods also give new sharp Caffarelli-Kohn-Nirenberg type inequalities in…
Caffarelli, Kohn and Nirenberg considered in 1984 the interpolation inequalities \[\||x|^{\gamma_1}u\|_{L^s(\mathbb{R}^n)}\le C\||x|^{\gamma_2}\nabla u\|_{L^p(\mathbb{R}^n)}^a\||x|^{\gamma_3}u\|_{L^q(\mathbb{R}^n)}^{1-a} \] in dimension…
We extend the range of parameters associated with the Gagliardo-Nirenberg interpolation inequalities in the fractional Coulomb-Sobolev spaces for radial functions. We also study the optimality of this newly extended range of parameters.
