Sobolev theorems for cusp manifolds (Q380258)

The authors start with a brief discussion of weighted Sobolev spaces and the fundamental behavior of the injectivity radius at the ends. Then they establish the first embedding theorem concerning the embedding of sections of weighted spaces into the space of bounded \(C^{\infty}\)-sections. The key for module structure theorems for weighted Sobolev spaces is the so-called scale of embedding. The authors establish this scale for arbitrary weights except the initial step. The final part is devoted to the initial step in the scale of Sobolev embedding and the module structure theorem.
