The Besov capacity in metric spaces
We study a capacity theory based on a definition of Haj{\l} asz-Besov functions. We prove several properties of this capacity in the general setting of a metric space equipped with a doubling measure. The main results of the paper are lower bound and upper bound estimates for the capacity in terms of a modified Netrusov-Hausdorff content. Important tools are $\gamma$-medians, for which we also prove a new version of a Poincar\'e type inequality.
On the continuity of discrete maximal operators in Sobolev spaces
We investigate the continuity of discrete maximal operators in Sobolev space W 1;p (R n ). A counterexample is given as well as it is shown that the continuity follows under certain sucient assumptions. Especially, our research verifies that for the continuity in Sobolev spaces the role of the partition of the unity used in the construction of the maximal operator is very delicate.
Fractional Maximal Functions in Metric Measure Spaces
Abstract We study the mapping properties of fractional maximal operators in Sobolev and Campanato spaces in metric measure spaces. We show that, under certain restrictions on the underlying metric measure space, fractional maximal operators improve the Sobolev regularity of functions and map functions in Campanato spaces to Hölder continuous functions. We also give an example of a space where fractional maximal function of a Lipschitz function fails to be continuous.
