We study the symmetry/asymmetry of functions providing sharp constants in the embedding theorems ${\stackrel{\circ}{W}}\vphantom{W}_2^r(-1,1)\hookrightarrow{\stackrel{\circ}{W}}\vphantom{W}_\infty^k(-1,1)$ for various $r$ and $k$. The sharp…

We construct a family of non-parametric (infinite-dimensional) manifolds of finite measures on $R^d$. The manifolds are modelled on a variety of weighted Sobolev spaces, including Hilbert-Sobolev spaces and mixed-norm spaces. Each supports…

In the framework of Sobolev (Bessel potential) spaces $H^n(\reali^d, \reali {or} \complessi)$, we consider the nonlinear Nemytskij operator sending a function $x \in \reali^d \mapsto f(x)$ into a composite function $x \in \reali^d \mapsto…

We obtain an improved Sobolev inequality in H^s spaces involving Morrey norms. This refinement yields a direct proof of the existence of optimizers and the compactness up to symmetry of optimizing sequences for the usual Sobolev embedding.…

For a function $f$ from the Sobolev space $W^{1,p}(C)$ ($C\subset\mathbb{R}^d$ is an open convex cone), a sharp inequality that estimates $\| f\|_{L_{\infty}}$ via the $L_{p}$-norm of its gradient and a seminorm of the function is obtained.…

In this paper, we prove a sharp ill-posedness result for the incompressible non-resistive MHD equations. In any dimension $d\ge 2$, we show the ill-posedness of the non-resistive MHD equations in $H^{\frac{d}{2}-1}(\mathbb{R}^d)\times…

This paper deals with the embedding of the Sobolev spaces of fractional order into the space of H\"older continuous functions. More precisely, we show that the function $f\in H^s(\mathbb{R})$ with $\frac{1}{2}<s<1$ is H\"older continuous…

In this paper, we consider the Euclidean logarithmic Sobolev inequality \begin{eqnarray*} \int_{\mathbb{R}^d}|u|^2\log|u|dx\leq\frac{d}{4}\log\bigg(\frac{2}{\pi d e}\|\nabla u\|_{L^2(\mathbb{R}^d)}^2\bigg), \end{eqnarray*} where $u\in…

We prove estimates for the $L^p$-norms of systems of functions and divergence free vector functions that are orthonormal in the Sobolev space $H^1$ on the 2D sphere. As a corollary, order sharp constants in the embedding $H^1\hookrightarrow…

In this paper we study the Sobolev embedding theorem for variable exponent spaces with critical exponents. We find conditions on the best constant in order to guaranty the existence of extremals. The proof is based on a suitable refinement…

In this paper we provide explicit upper and lower bounds on certain $L^2$ $n$-widths, i.e., best constants in $L^2$ approximation. We further describe a numerical method to compute these $n$-widths approximately, and prove that this method…

In this paper, we study the best constant of the following discrete Hardy-Littlewood-Sobolev inequality, \begin{equation} \sum_{i,j,i\neq j}\frac{f_{i}g_{j}}{\mid i-j\mid^{n-\alpha}}\leq C_{r,s,\alpha} |f|_{l^r} |g|_{l^s},…

We consider Hardy inequalities in $I R^n$, $n \geq 3$, with best constant that involve either distance to the boundary or distance to a surface of co-dimension $k<n$, and we show that they can still be improved by adding a multiple of a…

We show that, when $sp>N$, the sharp Hardy constant $\mathfrak{h}_{s,p}$ of the punctured space $\mathbb R^N\setminus\{0\}$ in the Sobolev-Slobodecki\u{\i} space provides an optimal lower bound for the Hardy constant…

In this work we improve the sharp Hardy inequality in the case $p>n$ by adding an optimal weighted Hoelder semi-norm. To achieve this we first obtain a local improvement. We also obtain a refinement of both the Sobolev inequality for $p>n$…

Optimal lower bounds for discrepancy in Besov spaces with dominating mixed smoothness are known from the work of Triebel. Hinrichs proved upper bounds in the plane. In this work we systematically analyse the problem, starting with a survey…

In this article, we give probabilistic versions of Sobolev embeddings on any Riemannian manifold $(M,g)$. More precisely, we prove that for natural probability measures on $L^2(M)$, almost every function belong to all spaces $L^p(M)$,…
