The best constant in the Sobolev inequality in the whole space is attained by the Aubin–Talenti function; however, this does not happen in bounded domains because of the break down of the dilation invariance. In this paper, we investigate a new scale invariant form of the Sobolev inequality in a ball and show that its best constant is attained by functions of the Aubin–Talenti type. Generalization to the Caffarelli–Kohn–Nirenberg inequality in a ball is also discussed.
Applications of $p$-harmonic transplantation for functional inequalities involving a Finsler norm

Abstract. In this paper, we prove several inequalities such as Sobolev, Poincaré, logarithmic Sobolev, which involve a general norm with accurate information of extremals, and are valid for some

where the constant ( n−p p ) p is sharp. This inequality has been studied extensively in the Euclidean spaces (see [1–3]) due to its applications in different fields such as harmonic analysis,
Critical Hardy inequality on the half-space via the harmonic transplantation
• Mathematics
• 2022
We prove a critical Hardy inequality on the half-space R + by using the harmonic transplantation for functions in Ẇ 0 (R + ). Also we give an improvement of the subcritical Hardy inequality on Ẇ 1,p
Two limits on Hardy and Sobolev inequalities
It is known that classical Hardy and Sobolev inequalities hold when the exponent $p$ and the dimension $N$ satisfy $p < N < \infty$. In this note, we consider two limits of Hardy and Sobolev
Remarks on a limiting case of Hardy type inequalities
• Mathematics
• 2019
The classical Hardy inequality holds in Sobolev spaces $W_0^{1,p}$ when $1\le p< N$. In the limiting case where $p=N$, it is known that by adding a logarithmic function to the Hardy potential, some
