Best constants in the exceptional case of Sobolev inequalities

From MaRDI portal
Publication:2580983





Let \((M,g)\) be a Riemannian \(n\)-dimensional compact manifold, locally conformally flat. The author studies the problem of the best constant in an exponential Sobolev inequality \[ \int_M e^u dV\, \leq\, C\, \exp{(\mu\| \nabla u\| ^n_n) } \] for \(u\in H^n_1(M)\) with \(\int_M u dV = 0 \). It is proved that there exists \(C>0\) such that the above inequality holds for an explicit numerical constant \(\mu=\mu(n, \omega_n)\) where \(\omega_n= \text{ vol}(S_{n-1})\). The constant is the best possible such that the inequality holds for any \(u\in H^n_1(M)\) with \(\int_M u dV = 0 \).
