Abstract: | Let m and n be positive integers with n2 and 1mn−1. We study rearrangement-invariant quasinorms R and D on functions f: (0, 1)→
such that to each bounded domain Ω in
n, with Lebesgue measure |Ω|, there corresponds C=C(|Ω|)>0 for which one has the Sobolev imbedding inequality R(u*(|Ω| t))CD(|mu|* (|Ω| t)), uCm0(Ω), involving the nonincreasing rearrangements of u and a certain mth order gradient of u. When m=1 we deal, in fact, with a closely related imbedding inequality of Talenti, in which D need not be rearrangement-invariant, R(u*(|Ω| t))CD((d/dt) ∫{x
n : |u(x)|>u*(|Ω| t)} |(u)(x)| dx), uC10(Ω). In both cases we are especially interested in when the quasinorms are optimal, in the sense that R cannot be replaced by an essentially larger quasinorm and D cannot be replaced by an essentially smaller one. Our results yield best possible refinements of such (limiting) Sobolev inequalities as those of Trudinger, Strichartz, Hansson, Brézis, and Wainger. |
