Optimal AB-program for Poincaré--Sobolev and logarithmic Sobolev inequalities on hyperbolic spaces

In this paper, we prove that we can subtract the full spectral gap $\left(\frac{N-1}{p}\right)^{p}$ of the $p$-Laplacian and keep the sharp Sobolev constant $S(N,p)$ of $\mathbb{R}^N$ at the same time in a large family of $p$. For $p=2$, this was proved by Benguria, Frank and Loss in dimension three, and it was shown by Hebey to be false in dimensions $N\geq4$. For $p\neq2$, it was proved by Nguyen for $N\geq4$ and $\frac{2N}{N-1}\leq p<N$. By employing, among other tools, a suitable conjugation that maps the radial $p$-Dirichlet integral on $\mathbb{H}^N$ onto its Euclidean counterpart on $\mathbb{R}^N$ while preserving the $L^p$ norm, together with a one-dimensional tangent line inequality, we establish such sharp Poincaré--Sobolev inequalities for $N=3$ and $2\leq p<3$, for $N=4$ and $\frac{1+\sqrt{13}}{2}\leq p<4$, and for $N\geq5$ and $\min\{3,\frac{1+\sqrt{4N-3}}{2}\}\leq p<N$. In particular, in all cases we also obtain an explicit remainder term. Moreover, since the change of function keeps the $L^p$ norm, we prove the sharp logarithmic Sobolev inequalities with the full spectral gap and the sharp Euclidean constant for $N=3$ and $2\leq p\leq3$, and for $N\geq4$ on an explicit interval of $p$. For $p\geq3$, we also use the change of variable $t=\sinhρ$ and the Hardy inequality, which give a second remainder term. At the endpoint $p=N$, this remainder gives a Hardy--Trudinger--Moser inequality on $\mathbb{H}^N$ under a weaker constraint than the one of Liang, Lu, Wang and Yang, in every dimension $N\geq3$. Finally, we show that for $1<p<\frac{1+\sqrt{4N-3}}{2}$, which includes all $1<p<2$, the full spectral gap can still be subtracted with some positive constant in front of the Sobolev term, and that this constant is smaller than $S(N,p)^{p}$ when $p<\min\{2,\sqrt N\}$. Together with our other results, this shows that the full spectral gap can be subtracted for every $1<p<N$.

Hardy and Rellich identities and inequalities for Baouendi-Grushin operators via spherical vector fields

For Baouendi-Grushin vector fields, we prove Hardy, Hardy-Rellich, and Rellich identities and inequalities with sharp constants. Our explicit remainder terms significantly improve than those found in the literature. Our arguments are built on abstract Hardy-Rellich identities involving the Bessel pair along with the use of spherical harmonics developed by Garofalo-Shen [Ann. Inst. Fourier (1994)]. Furthermore, in the spirit of Bez-Machihara-Ozawa [Math. Z (2023)], we construct spherical vector fields corresponding to the Baouendi-Grushin vector fields and prove identities that, in turn, establish optimal Rellich identities, by comparing the Baouendi-Grushin operator with its radial and spherical components. We give alternate proofs of Hardy identities and inequalities with enhanced Hardy constants in some subspaces of the Sobolev space, among other things. Additionally, we compute the deficit involving the $L^2$-norm of the Baouendi-Grushin operator and its radial component with an explicit remainder term, which leads to a comparison of the Baouendi-Grushin operator with its radial components. As a consequence of the main results, new second-order Heisenberg-Pauli-Weyl uncertainty principles and Hydrogen uncertainty principles are also derived. Furthermore, we also derive certain symmetrization principles green corresponding to the Baouendi-Grushin vector fields.

Sharp Quantitative Forms of the Hardy Inequality on Cartan-Hadamard Manifolds via Sobolev-Lorentz Embeddings

In this article, we investigate the quantitative form of the classical Hardy inequality. In our first result, we prove the following quantitative bound under the assumption that the $\mathbb{M}^N$ is a Riemannian model satisfying the Pólya--Szegő inequality: We prove that $$ \|\nabla_g u\|^2_{L^{2}(\mathbb{M}^N)} - \frac{(N-2)^2}{4}\left\|\frac{u}{r(x)}\right\|^2_{L^2(\mathbb{M}^N)} \geq C [\mbox{dist}(u, Z)]^{\frac{4N}{N-2}}\left\|\frac{u}{r(x)}\right\|^2_{L^2(\mathbb{M}^N)},$$ for every real-valued weakly differentiable function $u$ on $\mathbb{M}^N$ such that $|\nabla_g u| \in L^2(\mathbb{M}^N)$ and $u$ decays to zero at infinity. Here $r(x) = d_g(x,x_0)$ denotes the geodesic distance from a fixed pole $x_0,$ the set $Z$ represents the family of virtual extremals, and the distance is understood in an appropriate generalized Lorentz-type space. Our approach is built on the symmetrization technique on manifolds, combined with a novel Jacobian-type transformation that provides a precise way for comparing volume growth, level sets, and gradient terms across the two geometries of Euclidean and manifold settings. When coupled with symmetrization, this framework yields sharp control over the relevant functionals and reveals how the underlying curvature influences extremal behavior. Our result generalizes the seminal result of Cianchi-Ferone [Ann. Inst. H. Poincaré C Anal. Non Linéaire 25 (2008)] to the curved spaces. Moreover, building upon this transformation, we succeed in extending Sobolev-Lorentz embedding-classically formulated in the Euclidean setting to the broader framework of Cartan-Hadamard models and we establish an optimal Sobolev-Lorentz embedding in this geometric setting. Finally, we establish a quantitative correspondence between the Hardy deficit on the manifold and an appropriate weighted Hardy deficit in Euclidean space, showing that each controls the other.

Gromov-Hausdorff Stability and Rigidity of manifolds via Heisenberg-Pauli-Weyl Uncertainty Principle

The classical Heisenberg Pauli Weyl (HPW) inequality exhibits a strong rigidity phenomenon on Riemannian manifolds i.e. on Cartan Hadamard manifolds and those with non-negative Ricci curvature, the validity of the Euclidean HPW inequality or the existence of extremizers strictly forces the manifold to be isometric to Euclidean space, $\mathbb{R}^n$. This geometric discrepancy motivates the study of curvature dependent corrections and their associated stability properties. In this article, we investigate the geometric stability of the HPW inequality. Specifically, given a sequence of pointed Riemannian manifolds and appropriately normalized functions with a vanishing HPW deficit, we address whether the sequence converges to the corresponding model space in the pointed Gromov Hausdorff topology. We prove that for pinched Cartan Hadamard manifolds with sectional curvature bounded above by $c < 0$, the manifolds converge to the model hyperbolic space $\mathbb{H}^n_c$. In the non-negative Ricci curvature setting, we establish convergence to $\mathbb{R}^n$, up to a metric rescaling factor governed by the sequence's moment term. Consequently, we deduce that the known HPW inequality formulated via the asymptotic volume ratio (AVR) is suboptimal for non negatively Ricci curved manifolds not isometric to Euclidean space. To resolve this, we introduce a curvature corrected HPW inequality for this setting, analogous to the Cartan Hadamard case. Finally, we establish quantitative rigidity estimates in both curvature regimes, demonstrating that the HPW deficit when evaluated at Gaussian profiles which explicitly controls an appropriately defined distance to the respective model space.

Quantitative stability for fractional Hardy inequalities: Rearrangement-free techniques and Emden-Fowler analysis

A classical result due to Frank and Seiringer asserts that for $1\leq p<\frac Ns$, there exists a sharp constant $\mathcal{C}_{N,s,p}>0$ such that $$ δ_{s,p}(u):=\int_{\mathbb{R}^N}\int_{\mathbb{R}^N}\frac{|u(x)-u(y)|^p}{|x-y|^{N+sp}}\,dx\,dy-\mathcal{C}_{N,s,p}\int_{\mathbb{R}^N}\frac{|u(x)|^p}{|x|^{sp}}\,dx\ge0, $$ for all $u\in W^{s,p}(\mathbb{R}^N)$. The optimal constant is explicitly known. We investigate quantitative refinements of this inequality. Our first result shows that, under the normalization $ \int_{\mathbb{R}^N}\frac{|u(x)|^p}{|x|^{sp}}\,dx=1,$ the inequality \[ δ_{s,p}(u)\gtrsim\bigl(\mathrm{dist}_{s,p}(u,\mathcal{Z})\bigr)^α, \] holds, where $α=\max\{4,2p\}$, $\mathcal{Z}$ denotes the family of ``virtual'' extremals, and the distance is measured in Marcinkiewicz (weak-$L^{p_s^*}$) space. The stability exponent remains constant for $p\le2$, while it depends on $p$ for $p>2$. Our approach is based on a localized Poincaré-Sobolev inequality combined with suitable rescaling and Lorentz embeddings. We exploit a decomposition of the nonlocal energy together with Lorentz estimates, which enables us to control the deficit $δ_{s,p}(u)$ in terms of the distance to $\mathcal{Z}$. The method also applies to the local case $s=1$, the argument is rearrangement-free and the exponent in the stability estimate improves the existing literature. For $p=2$, via an Emden-Fowler correspondence and pseudo-differential operators, we show that the nonlocal Hardy deficit coincides with the local one and obtain quantitative stability on $\mathbb{R}\times\mathbb{S}^{N-1}$ using the diagonalization of the fractional Hardy quadratic form due to Frank, Lieb, and Seiringer. As an application, we establish a Hardy-Heisenberg-type uncertainty principle in the nonlocal setting, which appears to be new in the literature.

Conformally invariant equations with negative critical exponents on the three dimensional hyperbolic space

We establish a symmetry result for positive entire solutions with a prescribed growth rate to the following fourth order equation on the 3-dimensional hyperbolic space $\mathbb{H}^3$: \[ P_2 u = - u^{-7}, \] where $P_2$ denotes the fourth-order Paneitz operator. We prove that any positive solution $u$ on $\mathbb{H}^3$ exhibiting exponential growth at infinity must, up to hyperbolic isometries, be radial and strictly decreasing with respect to some point $P \in \mathbb{H}^3$. Fourth order equations with negative critical growth on 3-dimensional Euclidean space $\mathbb{R}^3$ has been studied by Choi and Xu in \cite{CX09 }, and subsequently by McKenna and Reichel \cite{MR03} and Xu \cite{Xu05}. Unlike the Euclidean case, the behavior of the Green's function of $P_2$ is substantially different, which prevents us from using the moving plane (sphere) method directly.

Logarithmic Sobolev, Poincaré and Beckner Inequalities on Hyperbolic Spaces and Riemannian Manifolds

We investigate several functional and geometric inequalities on the hyperbolic space $\mathbb{H}^N$, with a primary emphasis on logarithmic Sobolev inequalities, Poincaré inequalities, and Beckner-type inequalities, all studied within the framework of the AB program. The main analytical tool employed throughout this paper is symmetrization. More precisely, our approach relies on an improved version of the Pólya-Szegö inequality on the hyperbolic space, obtained through a careful comparison of the gradient norms of rearranged functions in the hyperbolic and Euclidean settings. For Beckner-type inequalities, we adopt a semigroup approach based on sharp estimates for the heat semigroup, leading to refined interpolation inequalities between Poincaré and logarithmic Sobolev inequalities. Finally, we extend our results beyond hyperbolic space to a class of Riemannian model manifolds $\mathbb{M}^N$ satisfying the centered isoperimetric inequality. This shows that the inequalities and methods developed in this work are robust and rely mainly on geometric and isoperimetric properties, rather than on the specific structure of hyperbolic space itself.

Scale-Dependent Poincaré inequalities, log-Sobolev inequality and the stability of the Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle on the hyperbolic space

We establish a general scale-dependent Poincaré-Hardy type identity involving a vector field on the hyperbolic space. By choosing suitable parameter, potential and vector field in this identity, we can recover, as well as derive new versions of and substantially improve several Poincaré type, Hardy type and Poincaré-Hardy type inequalities in the literature. We also investigate weighted Poincaré inequalities on hyperbolic space, where the weight functions depend on a scaling parameter. This leads to a new family of scale-dependent Poincaré inequalities with Gaussian type measure on the hyperbolic space which is of independent interest. As a result, we derive both scale-dependent and scale-invariant $L^{2}$-stability results for the Heisenberg uncertainty principle in this setting. Finally, we study the logarithmic Sobolev inequality with Gaussian measure on the hyperbolic spaces, that is still missing in the literature.

Poincaré-Sobolev equations with the critical exponent and a potential in the hyperbolic space

On the hyperbolic space, we study a semilinear equation with non-autonomous nonlinearity having a critical Sobolev exponent. The Poincaré-Sobolev equation on the hyperbolic space explored by Mancini and Sandeep [Ann. Sc. Norm. Super. Pisa Cl. Sci. 7 (2008)] resembles our equation. As seen from the profile decomposition of the energy functional associated with the problem, the concentration happens along two distinct profiles: localised Aubin-Talenti bubbles and hyperbolic bubbles. Standard variational arguments cannot obtain solutions because of nontrivial potential and concentration phenomena. As a result, a deformation-type argument based on the critical points at infinity of the associated variational problem has been carried out to obtain solution for $N>6.$ Conformal change of metric is used for proofs, enabling us to convert the original equation into a singular equation in a ball in $\mathbb{R}^N$ and perform a fine blow-up analysis.

Fractional Schrödinger equations with mixed nonlinearities: asymptotic profiles, uniqueness and nondegeneracy of ground states

We study the fractional Schrödinger equations with a vanishing parameter: $$ (-Δ)^s u+u =|u|^{p-2}u+λ|u|^{q-2}u \text{ in }\mathbb{R}^N,\quad u \in H^s(\mathbb{R}^N),$$ where $s\in(0,1)$, $N>2s$, $2 0$ is a vanishing parameter. We investigate the asymptotic behaviour of positive ground state solutions for $λ$ small, when $p$ is subcritical, or critical Sobolev exponent $2_s^*$. For $p<2_s^*$, the ground state solution asymptotically coincides with unique positive ground state solution of $(-Δ)^s u+u=u^p$, whereas for $p=2_s^*$ the asymptotic behaviour of the solutions, after a rescaling, is given by the unique positive solution of the nonlocal critical Emden-Fowler type equation. Additionally, for $λ>0$ small, we show the uniqueness and nondegeneracy of the positive ground state solution using these asymptotic profiles of solutions.

Classification of radial solutions to $-Δ_g u=e^u$ on Riemannian models

We provide a complete classification with respect to asymptotic behaviour, stability and intersections properties of radial smooth solutions to the equation $-Δ_g u=e^u$ on Riemannian model manifolds $(M,g)$ in dimension $N\ge 2$. Our assumptions include Riemannian manifolds with sectional curvatures bounded or unbounded from below. Intersection and stability properties of radial solutions are influenced by the dimension $N$ in the sense that two different kinds of behaviour occur when $2\leq N\le 9$ or $N\geq 10$, respectively. The crucial role of these dimensions in classifying solutions is well-known in Euclidean space.

Global compactness result and multiplicity of solutions for a class of critical exponent problem in the hyperbolic space

This paper deals with the global compactness and multiplicity of positive solutions to problems of the type $$ -Δ_{\mathbb B^N} u -λu=a(x) |u|^{2^*-2}u+f(x) \quad\text{in } \mathbb B^N, \quad u\in H^1(\mathbb B^N),$$ where $\mathbb B^N$ denotes the ball model of the hyperbolic space of dimension $N\geq 4$, $2^*=\frac{2N}{N-2}$, $\frac{N(N-2)}{4}<λ<\frac{(N-1)^2}{4}$ and $f\in H^{-1}(\mathbb B^N)$ ($f\not\equiv 0$) is a non-negative functional in the dual space of $H^1(\mathbb B^N)$. The potential $a\in L^\infty(\mathbb B^N)$ is assumed to be strictly positive, such that $\lim_{ d(x,0)\to \infty}a(x)=1$, where $d(x,0)$ denotes the geodesic distance. We establish profile decomposition of the associated functional. We show that concentration takes place along two different profiles, namely along hyperbolic bubbles and localized Aubin-Talenti bubbles. For $f=0$ and $a\equiv 1$, profile decomposition was studied by Bhakta and Sandeep [Calc. Var. PDE, 2012]. However, due to the presence of $a(.)$, an extension of profile decomposition to the present set-up is highly nontrivial and requires several delicate estimates and geometric arguments concerning the isometry group (Möbius group) of the hyperbolic space. Further, using the decomposition result, we derive various energy estimates involving the interacting hyperbolic bubbles and hyperbolic bubbles with localized Aubin-Talenti bubbles. Finally, combining these estimates with topological and variational arguments, we establish a multiplicity of positive solutions in the cases: $a\geq 1$ and $a<1$ separately. The equation studied in this article can be thought of as a variant of a scalar-field equation with a critical exponent in the hyperbolic space, although such a critical exponent problem in the Euclidean space $\mathbb{R}^N$ has only a trivial solution when $f \equiv 0,$ $a(x)\equiv1$ and $λ< 0.$

On a class of elliptic equations with Critical Perturbations in the hyperbolic space

We study the existence and non-existence of positive solutions for the following class of nonlinear elliptic problems in the hyperbolic space $$ -Δ_{\mathbb{B}^N} u-λu=a(x)u^{p-1} \, + \, \varepsilon u^{2^*-1} \,\;\;\text{in}\;\mathbb{B}^{N}, \quad u \in H^{1}{(\mathbb{B}^{N})}, $$ where $\mathbb{B}^N$ denotes the hyperbolic space, $2<p<2^*:=\frac{2N}{N-2}$, if $N \geqslant 3; 2<p<+\infty$, if $N = 2,\;λ< \frac{(N-1)^2}{4}$, and $0< a\in L^\infty(\mathbb{B}^N).$ We first prove the existence of a positive radially symmetric ground-state solution for $a(x) \equiv 1.$ Next, we prove that for $a(x) \geq 1$, there exists a ground-state solution for $\varepsilon$ small. For proof, we employ ``conformal change of metric" which allows us to transform the original equation into a singular equation in a ball in $\mathbb R^N$. Then by carefully analysing the energy level using blow-up arguments, we prove the existence of a ground-state solution. Finally, the case $a(x) \leq 1$ is considered where we first show that there is no ground-state solution, and prove the existence of a \it bound-state solution \rm (high energy solution) for $\varepsilon$ small. We employ variational arguments in the spirit of Bahri-Li to prove the existence of high energy-bound-state solutions in the hyperbolic space.

Sharp quantitative stability of Struwe's decomposition of the Poincaré-Sobolev inequalities on the hyperbolic space: Part I

A classical result owing to Mancini and Sandeep [Ann. Sc. Norm. Super. Pisa Cl. Sci. 7 (2008)] asserts that all positive solutions of the Poincaré-Sobolev equation on the hyperbolic space $$ -Δ_{\mathbb{B}^n} u-λu = |u|^{p-1}u, \quad u\in H^1(\mathbb{B}^n), $$ are unique up to hyperbolic isometries where $n \geq 3,$ $1 < p \leq \frac{n+2}{n-2} $ and $λ\leq \frac{(n-1)^2}{4}.$ We prove under certain bounds on $\|\nabla u \|_{L^2(\mathbb{B}^n)}$ the inequality $$ δ(u) \lesssim \|Δ_{\mathbb{B}^n} u+ λu + u^{p}\|_{H^{-1}}, $$ holds whenever $p >2$ and hence forcing the dimensional restriction $3 \leq n \leq 5,$ where $δ(u)$ denotes the $H^1$ distance of $u$ from the manifold of sums of hyperbolic bubbles. Moreover, it fails for any $n \geq 3$ and $p \in (1,2].$ This strengthens the phenomenon observed in the Euclidean case that the (linear) quantitative stability estimate depends only on whether the exponent $p$ is $>2$ or $\leq 2$. In the critical case, our dimensional constraint coincides with the seminal result of Figalli and Glaudo [Arch. Ration. Mech. Anal, 237 (2020)] but we notice a striking dependence on the exponent $p$ in the subcritical regime as well which is not present in the flat case. Our technique is an amalgamation of Figalli and Glaudo's method and builds upon a series of new and novel estimates on the interaction of hyperbolic bubbles and their derivatives and improved eigenfunction integrability estimates. Since the conformal group coincides with the isometry group of the hyperbolic space, we perceive a remarkable distinction in arguments and techniques to achieve our main results compared to that of the Euclidean case.

The proofs for existence combine variational arguments, key energy estimates involving hyperbolic bubbles.

Sharp quantitative stability of Poincare-Sobolev inequality in the hyperbolic space and applications to fast diffusion flows

Consider the Poincaré-Sobolev inequality on the hyperbolic space: for every $n \geq 3$ and $1 < p \leq \frac{n+2}{n-2},$ there exists a best constant $S_{n,p, λ}(\mathbb{B}^{n})>0$ such that $$S_{n, p, λ}(\mathbb{B}^{n})\left(~\int \limits_{\mathbb{B}^{n}}|u|^{p+1} \, {\rm d}v_{\mathbb{B}^n} \right)^{\frac{2}{p+1}} \leq\int \limits_{\mathbb{B}^{n}}\left(|\nabla_{\mathbb{B}^{n}}u|^{2}-λu^{2}\right) \, {\rm d}v_{\mathbb{B}^n},$$ holds for all $u\in C_c^{\infty}(\mathbb{B}^n),$ and $λ\leq \frac{(n-1)^2}{4},$ where $\frac{(n-1)^2}{4}$ is the bottom of the $L^2$-spectrum of $-Δ_{\mathbb{B}^n}.$ It is known from the results of Mancini and Sandeep [Ann. Sc. Norm. Super. Pisa Cl. Sci. 7 (2008)] that under appropriate assumptions on $n,p$ and $λ$ there exists an optimizer, unique up to the hyperbolic isometries, attaining the best constant $S_{n,p,λ}(\mathbb{B}^n).$ In this article, we investigate the quantitative gradient stability of the above inequality and the corresponding Euler-Lagrange equation locally around a bubble. Our result generalizes the sharp quantitative stability of Sobolev inequality in $\mathbb{R}^n$ of Bianchi-Egnell [J. Funct. Anal. 100 (1991)] and Ciraolo-Figalli-Maggi [Int. Math. Res. Not. IMRN 2018] to the Poincaré-Sobolev inequality on the hyperbolic space. Furthermore, combining our stability results and implementing a refined smoothing estimates, we prove a quantitative extinction rate towards its basin of attraction of the solutions of the sub-critical fast diffusion flow for radial initial data. In another application, we derive sharp quantitative stability of the Hardy-Sobolev-Maz'ya inequalities for the class of functions which are symmetric in the component of singularity.
