We obtain the sharp constant for the Hardy-Sobolev inequality involving the distance to the origin. This inequality is equivalent to a limiting Caffarelli-Kohn-Nirenberg inequality. In three dimensions, in certain cases the sharp constant…

We study the Hardy inequality when the singularity is placed on the boundary of a bounded domain in $\mathbb{R}^n$ that satisfies both an interior and exterior ball condition at the singularity. We obtain the sharp Hardy constant $n^2/4$ in…

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 $p>n$…

In this article we compute the best Sobolev constants for various Hardy-Sobolev inequalities with sharp Hardy term. This is carried out in three different environments: interior point singularity in Euclidean space, interior point…

We consider the series expansion of the $L^p$-Hardy inequality of \cite{BFT2}, in the particular case where the distance is taken from an interior point of a bounded domain in $\mathbb{R}^n$ and $1<p\neq n$. For $p<n$ we improve it by…

We present a unified approach to improved $L^p$ Hardy inequalities in $\R^N$. We consider Hardy potentials that involve either the distance from a point, or the distance from the boundary, or even the intermediate case where distance is…

We study some Hardy-type inequalities involving a general norm in $R^n$ and an anisotropic distance function to the boundary. The case of the optimality of the constants is also addressed.

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 prove sharp inequalities of Hardy type for functions in the Sobolev space $W^{1,p}$ on the unit sphere $\mathbb{S}^{n-1}$ in $\mathbb{R}^{n}$. We achieve this in both the subcritical and critical cases. The method we use to show…

We compute the optimal constant for a generalized Hardy-Sobolev inequality, and using the product of two symmetrizations we present an elementary proof of the symmetries of some optimal functions. This inequality was motivated by a…

Hardy-Littlewood-Sobolev (HLS) Inequality fails in the "critical" case: \mu=n. However, for discrete HLS, we can derive a finite form of HLS inequality with logarithm correction for a critical case: \mu=n and p=q, by limiting the inequality…

We study the $P_1$ finite element approximation of the best constant in the classical Hardy inequality over bounded domains containing the origin in $\mathbb{R}^N$, for $N \geq 3$. Despite the fact that this constant is not attained in the…

We establish fractional Hardy inequality on bounded domains in $\mathbb{R}^{d}$ with inverse of distance function from smooth boundary of codimension $k$, where $k=2, \dots,d$, as weight function. The case $sp=k$ is the critical case, where…

We consider a type of Hardy-Sobolev inequality, whose weight function is singular on the whole domain boundary. We are concerned with the attainability of the best constant of such inequality. In dimension two, we link the inequality to a…

We derive a family of interpolation estimates which improve Hardy's inequality and cover the Sobolev critical exponent. We also determine all optimizers among radial functions in the endpoint case and discuss open questions on nonrestricted…
