Abstract: We make a study of Weinstein functionals, first defined in ~cite{W}, on the hyperbolic space mathbbHn. We are primarily interested in the existence of Weinstein functional maximisers, or, in other words, existence of extremal functions for the best constant of the Gagliardo-Nirenberg inequality. The main result is that the maximum value of the Weinstein functional on mathbbHn is the same as that on mathbbRn and the related fact that the maximum value of the Weinstein functional is not attained on mathbbHn, when maximisation is done in the Sobolev space H1(mathbbHn). This proves a conjecture made in ~cite{CMMT} and also answers questions raised in several other papers (see, for example, ~cite{B}). We also prove that a corresponding version of the conjecture will hold for the Weinstein functional with the fractional Laplacian as well.
