Abstract

Given N3,N\geq 3, we consider the critical Hardy-Sobolev equation Δuγx2u=u2(s)2uxs-\Delta u-\frac{\gamma}{|x|^2}u=\frac{|u|^{2^*(s)-2}u}{|x|^s} in RN{0},\mathbb{R}^N\setminus \{0\}, where 0<γ<γH:=(N22)2,s(0,2)0<\gamma<\gamma_{H}:=\left(\frac{N-2}{2}\right)^2,\,s\in (0,2) and 2(s)=2(Ns)(N2).2^*(s)=\frac{2(N-s)}{(N-2)}. We prove a stability estimate for the corresponding Hardy-Sobolev inequality in the spirit of Bianchi-Egnell (1991). Also, we obtain a Struwe-type decomposition (1984) for the corresponding Euler-Lagrange equation. Finally, we prove a quantitative bound for one bubble, namely dist(u,M)Γ(u)\operatorname{dist}(u,\mathcal{M})\lesssim \Gamma(u) in the spirit of Ciraolo-Figalli-Maggi (2017).
