and Applied Analysis 3 The following Hardy-Sobolev inequality is due to Caffarelli et al. 12 , which is called Caffarelli-Kohn-Nirenberg inequality. There exist constants S1, S2 > 0 such that (∫ RN |x|−bp |u|pdx )p/p∗ ≤ S1 ∫ RN |x|−ap|∇u|pdx, ∀u ∈ C∞ 0 ( R N ) , 1.8 ∫ RN |x|− a 1 |u|dx ≤ S2 ∫ RN |x|−ap|∇u|pdx, ∀u ∈ C∞ 0 ( R N ) , 1.9 where p∗ Np/ N − pd is called the Sobolev critical exponent. ...
