On weighted inequalities for fractional integrals of radial functions (Q351766)

The authors prove that the weighted Hardy-Littlewood-Sobolev inequality \[ || | x|{}^{-\beta}T{}_{\gamma}v||{}_{L^{q}}{}_{(\mathbb{R}^{n})} \leq C\mid\mid \mid x\mid{}^{\alpha}v\mid\mid_{L^{p}}{}_{(\mathbb{R}^{n})} \] holds for all radially symmetric \(v\in L^{p}\left (\mathbb{R}^n,\mid x\mid^{p\alpha}dx\right)\), where \(n\geq 1\), \(0<\gamma<n\), \(1<p<\infty\), \(\alpha <\frac{n}{p}\), \(\beta <\frac{n}{q}\), \(\alpha + \beta \geq (n-1)\Big(\frac1{q}-\frac1{p}\Big)\), \(\frac1{q}=\frac1{p}+\frac{\gamma+\alpha+\beta}{n}-1\), \(p+q<\infty\) and the constant \(C\) is independent of \(v\). Furthermore, it is shown that the range of power weights appearing in the classical inequality of Stien and Weies can be improved for radially symmetric functions.
