Let $\Omega \subset {ℝ}^n$ be a domain and let $\alpha <n-1$. We prove the Concentration-Compactness Principle for the embedding of the space $W_0^1{L}^n{log}^{\alpha }L\left(\Omega \right)$ into an Orlicz space corresponding to a Young function which behaves like $exp\left(t^{n/(n-1-\alpha )}\right)$ for large $t$. We also give the result for the embedding into multiple exponential spaces. Our main result is Theorem where we show that if one passes to unbounded domains, then, after the usual modification of the integrand in the Moser functional, the statement of the Concentration-Compactnes Principle is very...

In the geometries of stratified groups, we provide differentiability theorems for both functions of bounded variation and Sobolev functions. Proofs are based on a systematic application of the Sobolev-Poincaré inequality and the so-called representation formula.

We investigate the connection between certain logarithmic Sobolev inequalities and generalizations of Gagliardo-Nirenberg inequalities. A similar connection holds between reverse logarithmic Sobolev inequalities and a new class of reverse Gagliardo-Nirenberg inequalities.

This paper is a continuation of [5] and provides necessary and sufficient conditions for double exponential integrability of the Bessel potential of functions from suitable (generalized) Lorentz-Zygmund spaces. These results are used to establish embedding theorems for Bessel potential spaces which extend Trudinger's result.

In this paper, characterizations of the embeddings between weighted Copson function spaces ${\mathrm{Cop}}_{p_1,q_1}(u_1,v_1)$ and weighted Cesàro function spaces ${\mathrm{Ces}}_{p_2,q_2}(u_2,v_2)$ are given. In particular, two-sided estimates of the optimal constant $c$ in the inequality $$\begin{array}{cc}\hfill d({\int }_0^{\infty }& {\left({\int }_0^{t}f{\left(\tau \right)}^{p_2}{v}_2\left(\tau \right)\mathrm{d}\tau \right)}^{q_2/p_2}{u}_2\left(t\right)\mathrm{d}t{)}^{1/q_2}\hfill \\ & \le c{\left({\int }_0^{\infty }{\left({\int }_t^{\infty }f{\left(\tau \right)}^{p_1}{v}_1\left(\tau \right)\mathrm{d}\tau \right)}^{q_1/p_1}{u}_1\left(t\right)\mathrm{d}t\right)}^{1/q_1},\hfill \end{array}d$$ where $p_1,p_2,q_1,q_2\in (0,\infty )$, $p_2\le q_2$ and $u_1$, $u_2$, $v_1$, $v_2$ are weights on $(0,\infty )$, are obtained. The most innovative part consists of the fact that possibly different parameters $p_1$ and $p_2$ and possibly different inner weights $v_1$ and $v_2$ are allowed. The proof is based on the combination of duality techniques with estimates...
