Vertical versus horizontal Sobolev spaces
2020
Let $\alpha \geq 0$, $1 < p < \infty$, and let $\mathbb{H}^{n}$ be the Heisenberg group. Folland in 1975 showed that if $f \colon \mathbb{H}^{n} \to \mathbb{R}$ is a function in the horizontal Sobolev space $S^{p}_{2\alpha}(\mathbb{H}^{n})$, then $\varphi f$ belongs to the Euclidean Sobolev space $S^{p}_{\alpha}(\mathbb{R}^{2n + 1})$ for any test function $\varphi$. In short, $S^{p}_{2\alpha}(\mathbb{H}^{n}) \subset S^{p}_{\alpha,\mathrm{loc}}(\mathbb{R}^{2n + 1})$. We show that the localisation can be omitted if one only cares for Sobolev regularity in the vertical direction: the horizontal Sobolev space $S_{2\alpha}^{p}(\mathbb{H}^{n})$ is continuously contained in the vertical Sobolev sp…
On the continuous and discontinuous maximal operators
2018
Abstract In the first part of this paper we study the regularity properties of a wide class of maximal operators. These results are used to show that the spherical maximal operator is continuous W 1 , p ( R n ) ↦ W 1 , p ( R n ) , when p > n n − 1 . Other given applications include fractional maximal operators and maximal singular integrals. On the other hand, we show that the restricted Hardy–Littlewood maximal operator M λ , where the supremum is taken over the cubes with radii greater than λ > 0 , is bounded from L p ( R n ) to W 1 , p ( R n ) but discontinuous.
Sharp capacity estimates for annuli in weighted R^n and in metric spaces
2017
We obtain estimates for the nonlinear variational capacity of annuli in weighted R^n and in metric spaces. We introduce four different (pointwise) exponent sets, show that they all play fundamental roles for capacity estimates, and also demonstrate that whether an end point of an exponent set is attained or not is important. As a consequence of our estimates we obtain, for instance, criteria for points to have zero (resp. positive) capacity. Our discussion holds in rather general metric spaces, including Carnot groups and many manifolds, but it is just as relevant on weighted R^n. Indeed, to illustrate the sharpness of our estimates, we give several examples of radially weighted R^n, which …
Multiple normalized solutions for a Sobolev critical Schrödinger-Poisson-Slater equation
2021
We look for solutions to the Schr\"{o}dinger-Poisson-Slater equation $$- \Delta u + \lambda u - \gamma (|x|^{-1} * |u|^2) u - a |u|^{p-2}u = 0 \quad \text{in} \quad \mathbb{R}^3, $$ which satisfy \begin{equation*} \int_{\mathbb{R}^3}|u|^2 \, dx = c \end{equation*} for some prescribed $c>0$. Here $ u \in H^1(\mathbb{R}^3)$, $\gamma \in \mathbb{R},$ $ a \in \mathbb{R}$ and $p \in (\frac{10}{3}, 6]$. When $\gamma >0$ and $a > 0$, both in the Sobolev subcritical case $p \in (\frac{10}{3}, 6)$ and in the Sobolev critical case $p=6$, we show that there exists a $c_1>0$ such that, for any $c \in (0,c_1)$, the equation admits two solutions $u_c^+$ and $u_c^-$ which can be characterized respectively…
Approximation and quasicontinuity of Besov and Triebel–Lizorkin functions
2016
We show that, for $0<s<1$, $0<p<\infty$, $0<q<\infty$, Haj\l asz-Besov and Haj\l asz-Triebel-Lizorkin functions can be approximated in the norm by discrete median convolutions. This allows us to show that, for these functions, the limit of medians, \[ \lim_{r\to 0}m_u^\gamma(B(x,r))=u^*(x), \] exists quasieverywhere and defines a quasicontinuous representative of $u$. The above limit exists quasieverywhere also for Haj\l asz functions $u\in M^{s,p}$, $0<s\le 1$, $0<p<\infty$, but approximation of $u$ in $M^{s,p}$ by discrete (median) convolutions is not in general possible.
Dimension estimates for the boundary of planar Sobolev extension domains
2020
We prove an asymptotically sharp dimension upper-bound for the boundary of bounded simply-connected planar Sobolev $W^{1,p}$-extension domains via the weak mean porosity of the boundary. The sharpness of our estimate is shown by examples.
ASYMPTOTIC ANALYSIS OF THE LINEARIZED NAVIER–STOKES EQUATION ON AN EXTERIOR CIRCULAR DOMAIN: EXPLICIT SOLUTION AND THE ZERO VISCOSITY LIMIT
2001
In this paper we study and derive explicit formulas for the linearized Navier-Stokes equations on an exterior circular domain in space dimension two. Through an explicit construction, the solution is decomposed into an inviscid solution, a boundary layer solution and a corrector. Bounds on these solutions are given, in the appropriate Sobolev spaces, in terms of the norms of the initial and boundary data. The correction term is shown to be of the same order of magnitude as the square root of the viscosity. Copyright © 2001 by Marcel Dekker, Inc.
Parametric and nonparametric A-Laplace problems: Existence of solutions and asymptotic analysis
2021
We give sufficient conditions for the existence of weak solutions to quasilinear elliptic Dirichlet problem driven by the A-Laplace operator in a bounded domain Ω. The techniques, based on a variant of the symmetric mountain pass theorem, exploit variational methods. We also provide information about the asymptotic behavior of the solutions as a suitable parameter goes to 0 + . In this case, we point out the existence of a blow-up phenomenon. The analysis developed in this paper extends and complements various qualitative and asymptotic properties for some cases described by homogeneous differential operators.
Infinitesimal Hilbertianity of Locally CAT(κ)-Spaces
2021
We show that, given a metric space (Y,d)(Y,d) of curvature bounded from above in the sense of Alexandrov, and a positive Radon measure μμ on YY giving finite mass to bounded sets, the resulting metric measure space (Y,d,μ)(Y,d,μ) is infinitesimally Hilbertian, i.e. the Sobolev space W1,2(Y,d,μ)W1,2(Y,d,μ) is a Hilbert space. The result is obtained by constructing an isometric embedding of the ‘abstract and analytical’ space of derivations into the ‘concrete and geometrical’ bundle whose fibre at x∈Yx∈Y is the tangent cone at x of YY. The conclusion then follows from the fact that for every x∈Yx∈Y such a cone is a CAT(0)CAT(0) space and, as such, has a Hilbert-like structure. peerReviewed
A characterization of Hajłasz–Sobolev and Triebel–Lizorkin spaces via grand Littlewood–Paley functions
2010
Abstract In this paper, we establish the equivalence between the Hajlasz–Sobolev spaces or classical Triebel–Lizorkin spaces and a class of grand Triebel–Lizorkin spaces on Euclidean spaces and also on metric spaces that are both doubling and reverse doubling. In particular, when p ∈ ( n / ( n + 1 ) , ∞ ) , we give a new characterization of the Hajlasz–Sobolev spaces M ˙ 1 , p ( R n ) via a grand Littlewood–Paley function.
