In this paper, we study Hardy's inequality in a limiting case: $$ \int_{\Omega} |\nabla u |^N dx \ge C_N(\Omega) \int_{\Omega} \frac{|u(x)|^N}{|x|^N \left(\log \frac{R}{|x|} \right)^N} dx $$ for functions $u \in W^{1,N}_0(\Omega)$, where…

Let P be a linear, second order, elliptic operator satisfying a Hardy inequality with potential W (i.e. $P-W\geq0$) and best constant $\alpha$. We give conditions so that the spectrum of $W^{-1}P$ is $[\alpha,\infty)$. We apply this to…

Let $\O$ be a bounded domain in $\R^N$ with $0\in\de\O$ and $N\ge 2$. In this paper we study the Hardy-Poincar\'e inequality for maps in $H^1_0(\Omega)$. In particular we give sufficient and some necessary conditions so that the best…

We study the following version of Hardy-type inequality on a domain $\Omega$ in a Riemannian manifold $(M,g)$: $$ \int{\Omega}|\nabla u|_g^p\rho^\alpha dV_g \geq \left(\frac{|p-1+\beta|}{p}\right)^p\int{\Omega}\frac{|u|^p|\nabla…

We review the literature concerning the Hardy inequality for regions in Euclidean space and in manifolds, concentrating on the best constants. We also give applications of these inequalities to boundary decay and spectral approximation.
