Abstract: The paper is devoted to the study of limiting behaviour of Besov capacities

c a p a (E; B_{p, q}^{a}) (0 < a < 1)

of sets in

R^{n}

as

a o 1

or

a o 0.

Namely, let

E s u b s e t R^{n}

and

J_{p,q}(a, E)=[a(1-a)q]^{p/q}capa(E;B_{p,q}^a).

It is proved that if

1 l e p < n, 1 l e q < i n f t y,

and the set

E

is open, then

J_{p, q} (a, E)

tends to the Sobolev capacity

c a p a (E; W_{p}^{1})

as

a o 1

. This statement fails to hold for compact sets. Further, it is proved that if the set

E

is compact and

1 l e p, q < i n f t y

, then

J_{p, q} (a, E)

tends to

2 n^{p} | E |

as

a o 0

(

| E |

is the measure of

E

). For open sets it is not true.

Review text

Let \(\mathrm{cap}(E; B^\alpha_{p,q})\) be the Besov capacity of a set \(E\) in \(\mathbb{R}^n\). The limiting behavior of this entity is studied as \(\alpha \to 1\) or \(\alpha \to 0\). In particular, it is proved that if \(1\leq p<n\), \(1\leq q<\infty\), and \(E\) is open, then \[ J_{p,q}(\alpha, E)=[\alpha (1- \alpha)q]^{p/q} \mathrm{cap}(E; B^\alpha_{p,q}) \] tends to the Sobolev capacity \(\mathrm{cap}(E; W^1_{p})\) as \(\alpha \to 1\). The case when \(E\) is compact is also considered.
