In this paper, we present geometric Hardy inequalities for the sub-Laplacian in half-spaces of stratified groups. As a consequence, we obtain the following geometric Hardy inequality in a half-space of the Heisenberg group with a sharp constant: [Formula: see text] which solves a conjecture in the paper [S. Larson, Geometric Hardy inequalities for the sub-elliptic Laplacian on convex domain in the Heisenberg group, Bull. Math. Sci. 6 (2016) 335–352]. Here, [Formula: see text] is the angle function. Also, we obtain a version of the Hardy–Sobolev inequality in a half-space of the Heisenberg group: [Formula: see text] where [Formula: see text] is the Euclidean distance to the boundary, [Formula: see text], and [Formula: see text]. For [Formula: see text], this gives the Hardy–Sobolev–Maz’ya inequality on the Heisenberg group.

Let$\unicode[STIX]{x1D6FA}$be a domain in$\mathbb{R}^{m}$with nonempty boundary. In Ward [‘On essential self-adjointness, confining potentials and the$L_{p}$-Hardy inequality’, PhD Thesis, NZIAS Massey University, New Zealand, 2014] and [‘The essential self-adjointness of Schrödinger operators on domains with non-empty boundary’,Manuscripta Math.150(3) (2016), 357–370] it was shown that the Schrödinger operator$H=-\unicode[STIX]{x1D6E5}+V$, with domain of definition$D(H)=C_{0}^{\infty }(\unicode[STIX]{x1D6FA})$and$V\in L_{\infty }^{\text{loc}}(\unicode[STIX]{x1D6FA})$, is essentially self-adjoint provided that$V(x)\geq (1-\unicode[STIX]{x1D707}_{2}(\unicode[STIX]{x1D6FA}))/d(x)^{2}$. Here$d(x)$is the Euclidean distance to the boundary and$\unicode[STIX]{x1D707}_{2}(\unicode[STIX]{x1D6FA})$is the nonnegative constant associated to the$L_{2}$-Hardy inequality. The conditions required for a domain to admit an$L_{2}$-Hardy inequality are well known and depend intimately on the Hausdorff or Aikawa/Assouad dimension of the boundary. However, there are only a handful of domains where the value of$\unicode[STIX]{x1D707}_{2}(\unicode[STIX]{x1D6FA})$is known explicitly. By obtaining upper and lower bounds on the number of cubes appearing in the$k\text{th}$generation of the Whitney decomposition of$\unicode[STIX]{x1D6FA}$, we derive an upper bound on$\unicode[STIX]{x1D707}_{p}(\unicode[STIX]{x1D6FA})$, for$p>1$, in terms of the inner Minkowski dimension of the boundary.

Abstract We consider different fractional Neumann Laplacians of order {s\in(0,1)} on domains {\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^{n}} , namely, the restricted Neumann Laplacian {{(-\Delta_{\Omega}^{N})^{s}_{\mathrm{R}}}} , the semirestricted Neumann Laplacian {{(-\Delta_{\Omega}^{N})^{s}_{\mathrm{Sr}}}} and the spectral Neumann Laplacian {{(-\Delta_{\Omega}^{N})^{s}_{\mathrm{Sp}}}} . In particular, we are interested in the attainability of Sobolev constants for these operators when Ω is a half-space.

AbstractIn the Heisenberg group of dimension $$2n+1$$ 2 n + 1 , we consider the sub-Laplacian with a drift in the horizontal coordinates. There is a related measure for which this operator is symmetric. The corresponding Riesz transforms are known to be $$L^p$$ L p bounded with respect to this measure. We prove that the Riesz transforms of order 1 are also of weak type (1, 1), and that this is false for order 3 and above. Further, we consider the related maximal Littlewood–Paley–Stein operators and prove the weak type (1, 1) for those of order 1 and disprove it for higher orders.

Abstract Let 𝐻(𝑋) := (ℝ × 𝑋) ⋋ 𝑋* be the generalized Heisenberg group induced by a normed space 𝑋. We prove that 𝑋 and 𝑋* are relatively minimal subgroups of 𝐻(𝑋). We show that the group 𝐺 := 𝐻(𝐿4[0, 1]) is reflexively representable but weakly continuous unitary representations of 𝐺 in Hilbert spaces do not separate points of 𝐺. This answers the question of A. Shtern.

Abstract In this paper, we prove contact Poincaré and Sobolev inequalities in Heisenberg groups $\mathbb{H}^{n}$ , where the word ‘contact’ is meant to stress that de Rham’s exterior differential is replaced by the exterior differential of the so-called Rumin complex $(E_{0}^{\bullet },d_{c})$ , which recovers the scale invariance under the group dilations associated with the stratification of the Lie algebra of $\mathbb{H}^{n}$ . In addition, we construct smoothing operators for differential forms on sub-Riemannian contact manifolds with bounded geometry, which act trivially on cohomology. For instance, this allows us to replace a closed form, up to adding a controlled exact form, with a much more regular differential form.

A certain nilpotent Lie group plays an important role in the study of the foundations of quantum mechanics ([Wey]) and of the theory of theta series (see [C], [I] and [Wei]). This work shows how theta series are applied to decompose the natural unitary representation of a Heisenberg group.

In this paper, we study various forms of the Hardy inequality for Dunkl operators, including the classical inequality, [Formula: see text] inequalities, an improved Hardy inequality, as well as the Rellich inequality and a special case of the Caffarelli–Kohn–Nirenberg inequality. As a consequence, one-dimensional many-particle Hardy inequalities for generalized root systems are proved, which in the particular case of root systems [Formula: see text] improve some well-known results.

Abstract We propose a new Borell–Brascamp–Lieb inequality that leads to novel sharp Euclidean inequalities such as Gagliardo–Nirenberg–Sobolev inequalities in $ {\mathbb{R}}^n$ and in the half-space $ {\mathbb{R}}^n_+$. This gives a new bridge between the geometric point of view of the Brunn–Minkowski inequality and the functional point of view of the Sobolev-type inequalities. In this way we unify, simplify, and generalize results by S. Bobkov–M. Ledoux, M. del Pino–J. Dolbeault, and B. Nazaret.
