Revised logarithmic Sobolev inequalities of fractional order
In this short note we prove the logarithmic Sobolev inequality with derivatives of fractional order on $\mathbb{R}^n$ with an explicit expression for the constant. Namely, we show that for all $0 0$ we have the inequality \[ \int_{\mathbb{R}^n}|f(x)|^2 \log \left( \frac{|f(x)|^2}{\|f\|^{2}_{L^2(\mathbb{R}^n)}}\right)\,dx+\frac{n}{s}(1+\log a)\|f\|_{L^2(\mathbb{R}^n)}^{2}\leq C(n,s,a)\|(-Δ)^{s/2}f\|^{2}_{L^2(\mathbb{R}^n)} \] with an explicit $C(n,s,a)$ depending on $a$, the order $s$, and the dimension $n$, and investigate the behaviour of $C(n,s,a)$ for large $n$. Notably, for large $n$ and when $s=1$, the constant $C(n,1,a)$ is asymptotically the same as the sharp constant of Lieb and Loss. Moreover, we prove a similar type inequality for functions $f \in L^q(\mathbb{R}^n)\cap W^{1,p}(\mathbb{R}^n)$ whenever $1<p<n$ and $p<q\leq \frac{p(n-1)}{n-p}$.
