On Sobolev theorem for Riesz-type potentials in Lebesgue spaces with variable exponent (Q1432982)

Summary: The Riesz potential operator of variable order \(\alpha(x)\) is shown to be bounded from the Lebesgue space \(L^{p(\cdot)}(\mathbb{R}^n)\) with variable exponent \(p(x)\) into the weighted space \(L^{q(\cdot)}_\rho(\mathbb{R}^n)\), where \(\rho(x)=(1+| x|)^{-\gamma}\) with some \(\gamma> 0\) and \({1\over q(x)}= {1\over p(x)}- {\alpha(x)\over n}\) when \(p\) is not necessarily constant at infinity. It is assumed that the exponent \(p(x)\) satisfies the logarithmic continuity condition both locally and at infinity and \(1< p(\infty)\leq p(x)\leq P<\infty\) \((x\in \mathbb{R}^n)\).
