Sobolev spaces on Lie groups: Embedding theorems and algebra properties

Let G be a noncompact connected Lie group, denote with ρ a right Haar measure and choose a family of linearly independent left-invariant vector fields X on G satisfying Hörmander's condition. Let χ be a positive character of G and consider the measure ${\mu }_{\chi }$ whose density with respect to ρ is χ. In this paper, we introduce Sobolev spaces $L_{\alpha }^p({\mu }_{\chi })$ adapted to X and ${\mu }_{\chi }$ ($1<p<\infty$, $\alpha \ge 0$) and study embedding theorems and algebra properties of these spaces. As an application, we prove local well-posedness and regularity results of solutions of some nonlinear heat and Schrödinger equations on the group.     

Nash multiplicities and isolated points of maximum multiplicity

Let X be an algebraic variety defined over a field of characteristic zero, and let $\xi \in \underset{\_}{\mathrm{Max}}\mathrm{mult}(X)$ be a point in the closed subset of maximum multiplicity of X. We provide a criterion, given in terms of arcs, to determine whether ξ is isolated in $\underset{\_}{\mathrm{Max}}\mathrm{mult}(X)$. More precisely, we use invariants of arcs derived from the Nash multiplicity sequence to characterize when ξ is an isolated point in $\underset{\_}{\mathrm{Max}}\mathrm{mult}(X)$.
