Nonnegative measures belonging to $H^{-1}(\mathbb{R}^2)$
Abstract
Radon measures belonging to the negative Sobolev space $H^{-1}(\mathbb{R}^2)$ are important from the point of view of fluid mechanics as they model vorticity of vortex-sheet solutions of incompressible Euler equations. In this note we discuss regularity conditions sufficient for nonnegative Radon measures supported on a line to be in $H^{-1}(\mathbb{R}^2)$. Applying the obtained results, we derive consequences for measures on $\mathbb{R}^2$ with arbitrary support and prove elementarily, among other things, that measures belonging to $H^{-1}(\mathbb{R}^2)$ may be supported on a set of Hausdorff dimension $0$. We comment on possible numerical applications.
