A version of Gehring lemma in Orlicz spaces (Q2428057): Difference between revisions

Summary: We present a version of the Gehring lemma, showing higher integrability in the scale of Orlicz spaces for a function \(g\) satisfying reverse Hölder's inequalities of the type \[ \left (-\mkern-19mu\int_B g^m\right)^{1/m} \leq -\mkern-19mu\int_{2B} fg + \left (-\mkern-19mu\int_{2B}h^m\right)^{1/m}, \] under suitable integrability conditions on \(f\) which do not imply boundedness. We describe explicitly in the general case how the improved integrability of \(g\) depends on the assumptions on \(f\), thus extending results of \textit{D. Faraco}, \textit{P. Koskela} and \textit{X. Zhong} [Adv. Math. 190, No. 2, 300--318 (2005; Zbl 1075.30012)] and \textit{M. Bildhauer}, \textit{M. Fuchs} and \textit{X. Zhong} [Manuscr. Math. 116, No.2, 135--156 (2005; Zbl 1116.49018)] which deal with \(f\) exponentially integrable. We also present some applications of our result to the theory of mappings of finite inner distortion.
