Nonlinear Potential Theory and Weighted Sobolev Spaces by Bengt O. Turesson

By Bengt O. Turesson

The e-book systematically develops the nonlinear power idea attached with the weighted Sobolev areas, the place the load often belongs to Muckenhoupt's category of Ap weights. those areas ensue as ideas areas for degenerate elliptic partial differential equations. The Sobolev house thought covers effects touching on approximation, extension, and interpolation, Sobolev and Poincaré inequalities, Maz'ya kind embedding theorems, and isoperimetric inequalities. within the bankruptcy dedicated to power conception, a number of weighted capacities are investigated. furthermore, "Kellogg lemmas" are verified for numerous thoughts of thinness. functions of power concept to weighted Sobolev areas comprise quasi continuity of Sobolev capabilities, Poincaré inequalities, and spectral synthesis theorems.
