Abstract: Given $(M,g)$ a smooth compact $(n+1)$-dimensional Riemannian manifold with boundary $partialM$. Let $ho$ be a defining function of $M$ and $sigmain(0,1)$. In this paper we study a weighted Sobolev-Poincar'e type trace inequality corresponding to the embedding of $W^{1,2}(h{o}^{1-2sigma},M)hookrightarrow{L}^p(partialM)$, where $p=frac2nn-2sigma$. More precisely, under some assumptions on the manifold, we prove that there exists a constant $B>0$ such that, for all $uin{W}^{1,2}(h{o}^{1-2sigma},M)$, ${\displaystyle }$ Big(int_{partial M}|u|^{p} ,ud s_{g}Big)^{2/p} leq mu^{-1} int_{M} ho^{1-2 sigma}| abla_{g} u|^{2} ,ud v_{g}+B Big|int_{partial M} |u|^{p-2}u ,ud s_{g}Big|^{2/(p-1)}. ${\displaystyle }$ This inequality is sharp in the sense that $m{u}^{-1}$ cannot be replaced by any smaller constant. Moreover, unlike the classical Sobolev inequality, $m{u}^{-1}$ does not depend on $n$ and $sigma$ only, but depends on the manifold.
