Some $q$-analysis variants of Hardy type inequalities of the form $${\int }_0^b{\left(x^{\alpha -1}{\int }_0^x{t}^{-\alpha }f\left(t\right){\mathrm{d}}_{q}t\right)}^p{\mathrm{d}}_{q}x\le C{\int }_0^b{f}^p\left(t\right){\mathrm{d}}_{q}t$$ with sharp constant $C$ are proved and discussed. A similar result with the Riemann-Liouville operator involved is also proved. Finally, it is pointed out that by using these techniques we can also obtain some new discrete Hardy and Copson type inequalities in the classical case.

We consider a new Sobolev type function space called the space with multiweighted derivatives $W_{p,\overline{\alpha }}^n$, where $\overline{\alpha }=({\alpha }_0,{\alpha }_1,...,{\alpha }_n)$, ${\alpha }_i\in ℝ$, $i=0,1,...,n$, and ${\parallel f\parallel }_{W_{p,\overline{\alpha }}^n}=\parallel D_{\overline{\alpha }}^n{f\parallel }_p+{\sum }_{i=0}^{n-1}\left|D_{\overline{\alpha }}^{i}f\left(1\right)\right|$, $$D_{\overline{\alpha }}^{0}f\left(t\right)=t^{{\alpha }_0}f\left(t\right),D_{\overline{\alpha }}^{i}f\left(t\right)=t^{{\alpha }_i}\frac{\mathrm{d}}{\mathrm{d}t}{D}_{\overline{\alpha }}^{i-1}f\left(t\right),i=1,2,...,n.$$ We establish necessary and sufficient conditions for the boundedness and compactness of the embedding $W_{p,\overline{\alpha }}^n\hookrightarrow W_{q,\overline{\beta }}^m$, when $1\le q<p<\infty$, $0\le m<n$.
