On a class of Rellich inequalities (Q2493970): Difference between revisions

The main aim of the present study is to obtain sharp improved versions of the inequalities \[ \int_\Omega|\Delta u|^p\,dx\geq\left(\frac{(p-1}{N}-2p\right)^p \cdot p^{-2p}\cdot\int_\Omega\frac{|u|^p} {|x|^{2p}}\,dx, \quad u\in C_0^\infty(\Omega \setminus\{0\})\tag{1} \] and \[ \int_\Omega|\Delta u|^2\,dx\geq\frac{9}{16} \int_\Omega\frac{u^2} {[D(x)]^4}\,dx,\;u\in C_0^\infty(\Omega),\tag{2} \] where additional non-negative terms are present in the respective right-hand sides. Here \(\Omega\) is a bounded domain in \(\mathbb R^N\), \(D(x):=\text{dist}(x, \partial \Omega)\). At the same time, the authors obtain some new improved Rellich inequalities which are new even at the level of plain Rellich inequalities; these involve the distance to a surface \(K\) of intermediate codimension.
