Quantitative estimates for fractional Sobolev mappings in rational homotopy groups (Q6171639)

Let \( \mathcal N\subset \mathbb R ^M\) be a compact simply connected manifold without boundary. For a map \(f: \mathbb S^N \to \mathcal N\) an estimate of its rational homotopy group element \(\deg([f]) \in \mathbb R\) in terms of its fractional Sobolev norm is given: \[ |\deg[f]|<C(\deg)[f]^{\frac{N+L(\deg)}{\beta}}_{W^{\beta, \frac{N}{\beta}} (\mathbb S^N)} \] for all \(\beta\in (\beta_0(\deg)),1]\), where \(C(\deg),\beta_0(\deg)\) are some constants which are computable in terms of the homomorphism \(\deg: \pi_N(\mathcal N)\to \mathbb R \). This extends an earlier work by \textit{A. Schikorra} and \textit{J. van Schaftingen} [Proc. Am. Math. Soc. 148, No. 7, 2877--2891 (2020; Zbl 1487.55020)].
