Trudinger-Moser embedding on the hyperbolic space (Q1725241): Difference between revisions

Summary: Let \((\mathbb H^n,g)\) be the hyperbolic space of dimension \(n\). By our previous work [J. Funct. Anal. 263, No. 7, 1894--1938 (2012; Zbl 1256.53034), (Theorem 2.3)], for any \(0<\alpha<\alpha_n\), there exists a constant \(\tau>0\) depending only on \(n\) and \(\alpha\) such that \(\sup_{u\in W^{1,n}(\mathbb H^n),\| u\|_{1,\tau}\leq1}\int_{\mathbb H^n}(e^{\alpha|u|^{n/(n-1)}}-\sum^{n-2}_{k=0}\alpha^k|u|^{nk/(n-1)}/k!)dv_g<\infty\), where \(\alpha_n=n\omega^{1/(n-1)}_{n-1},\omega_{n-1}\) is the measure of the unit sphere in \(\mathbb R^n\), and \(\| u\|_{1,\tau}=\|\nabla_gu\|_{L^n(\mathbb H^n)}+\tau\| u\|_{L^n(\mathbb H^n)}\). In this note we shall improve the above mentioned inequality. Particularly, we show that, for any \(0<\alpha<\alpha_n\) and any \(\tau>0\), the above mentioned inequality holds with the definition of \(\| u\|_{1,\tau}\) replaced by \((\int_{\mathbb H^n}(|\nabla_gu|^n+\tau|u|^n)dv_g)^{1/n}\). We solve this problem by gluing local uniform estimates.
