Sharp Moser-Onofri inequality on the CR sphere under zero-moment constraints and its application to the stability of the CR Moser-Onofri inequality
Abstract
In this paper, we establish the sharp Moser--Onofri inequality in CR sphere under zero-moment constraints. By combining a decomposition into low and high spherical harmonics with the known CR localization estimates, we first prove the existence of extremals of the subcritical Moser--Onofri inequality under zero-moment constraints. We then derive their Euler--Lagrange equation, establish their smoothness, and eliminate the moment multiplier by means of the infinitesimal CR conformal action. Using the summation identity (4.9) on the Hardy space $H^2(B^n)$, we show that the extremals of subcritical Moser-Onofri inequality in CR sphere under zero-moment constraints are constants. By a limiting argument, we deduce the sharp Moser--Onofri inequality in CR sphere under zero-moment constraints. As an application, we establish the stability of Moser--Onofri inequality in CR sphere with the best stability constant.
