Some remarks on Wente’s inequality and the Lorentz-Sobolev space

In this note we consider Wente's type inequality on the Lorentz-Sobolev space.If▽f∈L~p1,q1(R~n),G ∈ L~(p2,q2)(R~n) and div G≡0 in the sense of distribution where(1/p1)+(1/P2)=(1/q1)+(1/q2)=1,1P1,P2∞,it is known that G·▽f belongs to the Hardy space H~1 and furthermore‖G·▽f‖H~1≤C‖▽f‖L~(p1,q1)(R~2)‖G‖L~(p2,q2)(R~2).Reader can see[9]Section 4.Here we give a new proof of this result.Our proof depends on an estimate of a maximal operator on the Lorentz space which is of some independent interest.Finally,we use this inequality to get a generalisation of Bethuel's inequality.
