Non-linear Ground State Representations and Sharp Hardy Inequalities
نویسندگان
چکیده
We determine the sharp constant in the Hardy inequality for fractional Sobolev spaces. To do so, we develop a non-linear and non-local version of the ground state representation, which even yields a remainder term. From the sharp Hardy inequality we deduce the sharp constant in a Sobolev embedding which is optimal in the Lorentz scale. In the appendix, we characterize the cases of equality in the rearrangement inequality in fractional Sobolev spaces.

We determine the sharp constant in the Hardy inequality for fractional Sobolev spaces on half-spaces. Our proof relies on a non-linear and non-local version of the ground state representation.
متن کاملGeneral Hardy-Type Inequalities with Non-conjugate Exponents
We derive whole series of new integral inequalities of the Hardy-type, with non-conjugate exponents. First, we prove and discuss two equivalent general inequa-li-ties of such type, as well as their corresponding reverse inequalities. General results are then applied to special Hardy-type kernel and power weights. Also, some estimates of weight functions and constant factors are obtained. ...

متن کاملHardy-sobolev-maz’ya Inequalities for Arbitrary Domains
1.1. Hardy-Sobolev-Maz’ya inequalities. Hardy inequalities and Sobolev inequalities bound the size of a function, measured by a (possibly weighted) L norm, in terms of its smoothness, measured by an integral of its gradient. Maz’ya [22] proved that for functions on the half-space R+ = {x ∈ R : xN > 0}, N ≥ 3, which vanish on the boundary, the sharp version of the Hardy inequality can be combine...
متن کاملA Geometric Characterization of a Sharp Hardy Inequality
In this paper, we prove that the distance function of an open connected set in R with a C boundary is superharmonic in the distribution sense if and only if the boundary is weakly mean convex. We then prove that Hardy inequalities with a sharp constant hold on weakly mean convex C domains. Moreover, we show that the weakly mean convexity condition cannot be weakened. We also prove various impro...
