Abstract: Loss of compactness that occurs in may significant PDE settings can be expressed in a well-structured form of profile decomposition for sequences. Profile decompositions are formulated in relation to a triplet (X,Y,D), where X and Y are Banach spaces, XhookrightarrowY, and D is, typically, a set of surjective isometries on both X and Y. A profile decomposition is a representation of a bounded sequence in X as a sum of elementary concentrations of the form gkw, gkinD, winX, and a remainder that vanishes in Y. A necessary requirement for Y is, therefore, that any sequence in X that develops no D-concentrations has a subsequence convergent in the norm of Y. An imbedding XhookrightarrowY with this property is called D-cocompact, a property weaker than, but related to, compactness. We survey known cocompact imbeddings and their role in profile decompositions.
