Stein-Weiss inequalities with the fractional Poisson kernel (Q1998664)

Summary: In this paper, we establish the following Stein-Weiss inequality with the fractional Poisson kernel: \begin{align*}\qquad \int_{\mathbb{R}^n_+} \int_{\partial\mathbb{R}^n_+} |\xi|^{-\alpha} f(\xi) &\,P(x,\xi,\gamma)\, g(x)\, |x|^{-\beta}\, d\xi\, dx \\ &\leq C_{n,\alpha,\beta,p,q'}\, \|g\|_{L^{q'}(\mathbb{R}^n_+)}\, \|f\|_{L^p(\partial \mathbb{R}^n_+)}, \tag{\(\star\)}\end{align*} where \[P(x,\xi,\gamma)=\frac{x_n}{(|x'-\xi|^2+x_n^2)^{(n+2-\gamma)/2}},\] \(2\le \gamma < n\), \(f\in L^p(\partial\mathbb{R}^n_+)\), \(g\in L^{q'}(\mathbb{R}^n_+)\), and \(p, q'\in (1,\infty)\) and satisfy \((n-1)/(np)+1/q'+(\alpha+\beta+2-\gamma)/{n}=1\). Then we prove that there exist extremals for the Stein-Weiss inequality \((\star)\), and that the extremals must be radially decreasing about the origin. We also provide the regularity and asymptotic estimates of positive solutions to the integral systems which are the Euler-Lagrange equations of the extremals to the Stein-Weiss inequality \((\star)\) with the fractional Poisson kernel. Our result is inspired by the work of Hang, Wang and Yan [\textit{F. Hang} et al., Commun. Pure Appl. Math. 61, No. 1, 54--95 (2008; Zbl 1173.26321)], where the Hardy-Littlewood-Sobolev type inequality was first established when \(\gamma=2\) and \(\alpha=\beta=0\). The proof of the Stein-Weiss inequality \((\star)\) with the fractional Poisson kernel in this paper uses recent work on the Hardy-Littlewood-Sobolev inequality with the fractional Poisson kernel by Chen, Lu and Tao, and the present paper is a further study in this direction.
