Hajłasz–Sobolev imbedding and extension
2011
Abstract The author establishes some geometric criteria for a Hajlasz–Sobolev M ˙ ball s , p -extension (resp. M ˙ ball s , p -imbedding) domain of R n with n ⩾ 2 , s ∈ ( 0 , 1 ] and p ∈ [ n / s , ∞ ] (resp. p ∈ ( n / s , ∞ ] ). In particular, the author proves that a bounded finitely connected planar domain Ω is a weak α -cigar domain with α ∈ ( 0 , 1 ) if and only if F ˙ p , ∞ s ( R 2 ) | Ω = M ˙ ball s , p ( Ω ) for some/all s ∈ [ α , 1 ) and p = ( 2 − α ) / ( s − α ) , where F ˙ p , ∞ s ( R 2 ) | Ω denotes the restriction of the Triebel–Lizorkin space F ˙ p , ∞ s ( R 2 ) on Ω .
Weighted Sobolev spaces and exterior problems for the Helmholtz equation
1987
Weighted Sobolev spaces are used to settle questions of existence and uniqueness of solutions to exterior problems for the Helmholtz equation. Furthermore, it is shown that this approach can cater for inhomogeneous terms in the problem that are only required to vanish asymptotically at infinity. In contrast to the Rellich–Sommerfeld radiation condition which, in a Hilbert space setting, requires that all radiating solutions of the Helmholtz equation should satisfy a condition of the form ( ∂ / ∂ r − i k ) u ∈ L 2 ( Ω ) , r = | x | ∈ Ω ⊂ R n , it is shown here that radiating solutions satisfy a condition of the form ( 1 + r ) − 1 2 ( ln ( e + r ) ) − 1 2 δ u ∈ L 2 ( Ω ) , 0 < δ < 1 2 …
An optimal Poincaré-Wirtinger inequality in Gauss space
2013
International audience; Let $\Omega$ be a smooth, convex, unbounded domain of $\mathbb{R}^N$. Denote by $\mu_1(\Omega)$ the first nontrivial Neumann eigenvalue of the Hermite operator in $\Omega$; we prove that $\mu_1(\Omega) \ge 1$. The result is sharp since equality sign is achieved when $\Omega$ is a $N$-dimensional strip. Our estimate can be equivalently viewed as an optimal Poincaré-Wirtinger inequality for functions belonging to the weighted Sobolev space $H^1(\Omega,d\gamma_N)$, where $\gamma_N$ is the $N$% -dimensional Gaussian measure.
A note on Sobolev isometric immersions below W2,2 regularity
2017
Abstract This paper aims to investigate the Hessian of second order Sobolev isometric immersions below the natural W 2 , 2 setting. We show that the Hessian of each coordinate function of a W 2 , p , p 2 , isometric immersion satisfies a low rank property in the almost everywhere sense, in particular, its Gaussian curvature vanishes almost everywhere. Meanwhile, we provide an example of a W 2 , p , p 2 , isometric immersion from a bounded domain of R 2 into R 3 that has multiple singularities.
Sobolev homeomorphic extensions
2021
Let $\mathbb X$ and $\mathbb Y$ be $\ell$-connected Jordan domains, $\ell \in \mathbb N$, with rectifiable boundaries in the complex plane. We prove that any boundary homeomorphism $\varphi \colon \partial \mathbb X \to \partial \mathbb Y$ admits a Sobolev homeomorphic extension $h \colon \overline{\mathbb X} \to \overline{\mathbb Y}$ in $W^{1,1} (\mathbb X, \mathbb C)$. If instead $\mathbb X$ has $s$-hyperbolic growth with $s>p-1$, we show the existence of such an extension lies in the Sobolev class $W^{1,p} (\mathbb X, \mathbb C)$ for $p\in (1,2)$. Our examples show that the assumptions of rectifiable boundary and hyperbolic growth cannot be relaxed. We also consider the existence of $W^{…
Isoperimetric inequality from the poisson equation via curvature
2012
In this paper, we establish an isoperimetric inequality in a metric measure space via the Poisson equation. Let (X,d,μ) be a complete, pathwise connected metric space with locally Ahlfors Q-regular measure, where Q > 1, that supports a local L2-Poincare inequality. We show that, for the Poisson equation Δu = g, if the local L∞-norm of the gradient Du can be bounded by the Lorentz norm LQ,1 of g, then we obtain an isoperimetric inequality and a Sobolev inequality in (X,d,μ) with optimal exponents. By assuming a suitable curvature lower bound, we establish such optimal bounds on . © 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
Continuous spectrum for a two phase eigenvalue problem with an indefinite and unbounded potential
2020
Abstract We consider a two phase eigenvalue problem driven by the ( p , q ) -Laplacian plus an indefinite and unbounded potential, and Robin boundary condition. Using a modification of the Nehari manifold method, we show that there exists a nontrivial open interval I ⊆ R such that every λ ∈ I is an eigenvalue with positive eigenfunctions. When we impose additional regularity conditions on the potential function and the boundary coefficient, we show that we have smooth eigenfunctions.
Mappings of Finite Distortion:¶Discreteness and Openness
2001
We establish a sharp integrability condition on the partial derivatives of a mapping with L p -integrable distortion for some p>n− 1 to guarantee discreteness and openness. We also show that a mapping with exponentially integrable distortion and integrable Jacobian determinant is either constant or both discrete and open. We give an example demonstrating the preciseness of our criterion.
Nodal Solutions for Supercritical Laplace Equations
2015
In this paper we study radial solutions for the following equation $$\Delta u(x)+f (u(x), |x|) = 0,$$ where $${x \in {\mathbb{R}^{n}}}$$ , n > 2, f is subcritical for r small and u large and supercritical for r large and u small, with respect to the Sobolev critical exponent $${2^{*} = \frac{2n}{n-2}}$$ . The solutions are classified and characterized by their asymptotic behaviour and nodal properties. In an appropriate super-linear setting, we give an asymptotic condition sufficient to guarantee the existence of at least one ground state with fast decay with exactly j zeroes for any j ≥ 0. Under the same assumptions, we also find uncountably many ground states with slow decay, singular gro…
Loomis-Whitney inequalities in Heisenberg groups
2021
This note concerns Loomis-Whitney inequalities in Heisenberg groups $\mathbb{H}^n$: $$|K| \lesssim \prod_{j=1}^{2n}|\pi_j(K)|^{\frac{n+1}{n(2n+1)}}, \qquad K \subset \mathbb{H}^n.$$ Here $\pi_{j}$, $j=1,\ldots,2n$, are the vertical Heisenberg projections to the hyperplanes $\{x_j=0\}$, respectively, and $|\cdot|$ refers to a natural Haar measure on either $\mathbb{H}^n$, or one of the hyperplanes. The Loomis-Whitney inequality in the first Heisenberg group $\mathbb{H}^1$ is a direct consequence of known $L^p$ improving properties of the standard Radon transform in $\mathbb{R}^2$. In this note, we show how the Loomis-Whitney inequalities in higher dimensional Heisenberg groups can be deduced…
