Entropy numbers of embeddings of function spaces with Muckenhoupt weights. III: Some limiting cases (Q646800)

Let \(\{\varphi_j \}^\infty_{j=0}\) be the usual dyadic resolution of the unity in \(\mathbb{R}^n\). Let \(w \in {\mathcal A}_\infty\) be a Muckenhoupt weight. Then \(B^s_{p,q} (\mathbb{R}^n,w)\) with \(0<p,q \leq \infty\), \(s\in \mathbb{R}\), collects all \(f\in S' (\mathbb{R}^n)\) such that \[ \|f \, | B^s_{p,q} (\mathbb{R}^n,w) \| = \Big( \sum^\infty_{j=0} 2^{jsq} \big\| (\varphi_j \widehat{f} )^\vee \, | L_p (\mathbb{R}^n,w) \|^q \Big)^{1/q} \] is finite. There is an \(F\)-counterpart. The paper concentrates on the special case \[ w = w_{\alpha, \beta} (x) =|x|^{\alpha_1} \big( 1 - \log |x|\big)^{\alpha_2} \text{if \(|x| \leq 1\)}, \] \[ w= w_{\alpha,\beta}(x) = |x|^{\beta_1} \big( 1 + \log |x| \big)^{\beta_2} \text{if \(|x| > 1\)}, \] \(\alpha_1 > -n\), \(\beta_1 >-n\), \(\alpha_2 \in \mathbb{R}\), \(\beta_2 \in \mathbb{R}\). The first main result characterizes under which conditions the embedding \[ B^{s_1}_{p_1,q_1} \big( \mathbb{R}^n, w_{\alpha, \beta} \big) \hookrightarrow B^{s_2}_{p_2, q_2} (\mathbb{R}^n) \] is continuous and under which conditions this embedding is compact. The second main result characterizes the compactness in terms of entropy numbers. This is based on wavelet characterizations of these spaces and the reduction of these embeddings to corresponding embeddings between related sequence spaces.
