Abstract A family of sharp $$L^p$$ L p Sobolev inequalities is established by averaging the length of i-dimensional projections of the gradient of a function. Moreover, it is shown that each of these new inequalities directly implies the classical $$L^p$$ L p  Sobolev inequality of Aubin and Talenti and that the strongest member of this family is the only affine invariant one among them—the affine $$L^p$$ L p  Sobolev inequality of Lutwak, Yang, and Zhang. When $$p = 1$$ p = 1 , the entire family of new Sobolev inequalities is extended to functions of bounded variation to also allow for a complete classification of all extremal functions in this case.

AbstractIn this paper, we are concerned with the following bi-harmonic equation with Hartree type nonlinearity $$\Delta ^2u = \left( {\displaystyle{1 \over { \vert x \vert ^8}}* \vert u \vert ^2} \right)u^\gamma ,\quad x\in {\open R}^d,$$where 0 < γ ⩽ 1 and d ⩾ 9. By applying the method of moving planes, we prove that nonnegative classical solutions u to (𝒫γ) are radially symmetric about some point x0 ∈ ℝd and derive the explicit form for u in the Ḣ2 critical case γ = 1. We also prove the non-existence of nontrivial nonnegative classical solutions in the subcritical cases 0 < γ < 1. As a consequence, we also derive the best constants and extremal functions in the corresponding Hardy-Littlewood-Sobolev inequalities.

The present paper mainly investigates the definition and classification of one-dimensional continuous functions on closed intervals. Continuous functions can be classified as differentiable functions and nondifferentiable functions. All differentiable functions are of bounded variation. Nondifferentiable functions are composed of bounded variation functions and unbounded variation functions. Fractal dimension of all bounded variation continuous functions is 1. One-dimensional unbounded variation continuous functions may have finite unbounded variation points or infinite unbounded variation points. Number of unbounded variation points of one-dimensional unbounded variation continuous functions maybe infinite and countable or uncountable. Certain examples of different one-dimensional continuous functions have been given in this paper. Thus, one-dimensional continuous functions are composed of differentiable functions, nondifferentiable continuous functions of bounded variation, continuous functions with finite unbounded variation points, continuous functions with infinite but countable unbounded variation points and continuous functions with uncountable unbounded variation points. In the end of the paper, we give an example of one-dimensional continuous function which is of unbounded variation everywhere.

Let (M, g) and (N, h) be compact Riemannian manifolds of dimensions m and n, respectively. For p-homogeneous convex functions f(s, t) on [0,∞) × [0, ∞), we study the validity and non-validity of the first-order optimal Sobolev inequality on H1, p(M × N) where and Kf = Kf (m, n, p) is the best constant of the homogeneous Sobolev inequality on D1, p (Rm+n), The proof of the non-validity relies on the knowledge of extremal functions associated with the Sobolev inequality above. In order to obtain such extremals we use mass transportation and convex analysis results. Since variational arguments do not work for general functions f, we investigate the validity in a uniform sense on f and argue with suitable approximations of f which are also essential in the non-validity. Homogeneous Sobolev inequalities on product manifolds are connected to elliptic problems involving a general class of operators.

This paper mainly discusses the continuous functions whose fractal dimension is 1 on [Formula: see text]. First, we classify continuous functions into unbounded variation and bounded variation. Then we prove that the fractal dimension of both continuous functions of bounded variation and their fractional integral is 1. As for continuous functions of unbounded variation, we solve several special types. Finally, we give the example of one-dimensional continuous function of unbounded variation.

AbstractWe introduce and investigate an adaptation of Fourier series to set-valued functions (multifunctions, SVFs) of bounded variation. In our approach we define an analogue of the partial sums of the Fourier series with the help of the Dirichlet kernel using the newly defined weighted metric integral. We derive error bounds for these approximants. As a consequence, we prove that the sequence of the partial sums converges pointwisely in the Hausdorff metric to the values of the approximated set-valued function at its points of continuity, or to a certain set described in terms of the metric selections of the approximated multifunction at a point of discontinuity. Our error bounds are obtained with the help of the new notions of one-sided local moduli and quasi-moduli of continuity which we discuss more generally for functions with values in metric spaces.
