Norm Constants in cases of the Caffarelli-Kohn-Nirenberg inequality
Abstract
By methods based on elementary Linear Algebra we obtain sharp constants in cases of the Caffarelli-Kohn-Nirenberg inequality via quasi-conformal changes of variables. Some of our results were obtained earlier by Lam and Lu. Our proofs are radical simplifications of earlier proofs. In the case $\alpha>0$ we establish that we have symmetry breaking and optimizers to the CKN inequalities do not exist. This case was not treated by Lam and Lu. Our results thus are in the full parameter range of \alpha.
