Attainability of the best Sobolev constant in a ball
Abstract
The best constant of the Sobolev inequality in the whole space is attained by the Aubin-Talenti function; however, this does not happen in bounded domains because the break in dilation invariance. In this paper, we investigate a new scale invariant form of the Sobolev inequality in a ball and show that its best constant is attained by functions of the Aubin-Talenti type. Generalization to the Caffarelli-Kohn-Nirenberg inequality in a ball is also discussed.
