We introduce function spaces $B^{p,\lambda }$ with Morrey-Campanato norms, which unify $B^{p,\lambda }$, $CM{O}^{p,\lambda }$ and Morrey-Campanato spaces, and prove the boundedness of the fractional integral operator $I_{\alpha }$ on these spaces.

Let n be a nonnegative integer and let u ∈ (n,n+1]. We say that f is u-times Peano bounded in the approximate (resp. $L^p$, 1 ≤ p ≤ ∞) sense at $x\in {ℝ}^m$ if there are numbers $f_{\alpha }\left(x\right)$, |α| ≤ n, such that $f(x+h)-{\sum }_{\left|\alpha \right|\le n}{f}_{\alpha }\left(x\right)h^{\alpha }/\alpha !$ is $O\left(h^u\right)$ in the approximate (resp. $L^p$) sense as h → 0. Suppose f is u-times Peano bounded in either the approximate or $L^p$ sense at each point of a bounded measurable set E. Then for every ε > 0 there is a perfect set Π ⊂ E and a smooth function g such that the Lebesgue measure of E∖Π is less than ε and...

We find conditions on a real function f:[a,b] → ℝ equivalent to being Lebesgue equivalent to an n-times differentiable function (n ≥ 2); a simple solution in the case n = 2 appeared in an earlier paper. For that purpose, we introduce the notions of $CBV{G}_{1/n}$ and $SBV{G}_{1/n}$ functions, which play analogous rôles for the nth order differentiability to the classical notion of a VBG⁎ function for the first order differentiability, and the classes $CB{V}_{1/n}$ and $SB{V}_{1/n}$ (introduced by Preiss and Laczkovich) for Cⁿ smoothness....

Given a compact manifold $N^n\subset {ℝ}^{\nu }$ and real numbers $s\ge 1$ and $1\le p\<\infty$, we prove that the class $C^{\infty }({\overline{Q}}^m;N^n)$ of smooth maps on the cube with values into $N^n$ is strongly dense in the fractional Sobolev space $W^{s,p}(Q^m;N^n)$ when $N^n$ is $\lfloor sp\rfloor$ simply connected. For $sp$ integer, we prove weak sequential density of $C^{\infty }({\overline{Q}}^m;N^n)$ when $N^n$ is $sp-1$ simply connected. The proofs are based on the existence of a retraction of ${ℝ}^{\nu }$ onto $N^n$ except for a small subset of $N^n$ and on a pointwise estimate of fractional derivatives of composition of maps in $W^{s,p}\cap W^{1,sp}$.

We consider a double analytic family of fractional integrals $S_z^{\gamma ,\alpha }$ along the curve ${t\mapsto \left|t\right|}^{\alpha }$, introduced for α = 2 by L. Grafakos in 1993 and defined by $\left(S_z^{\gamma ,\alpha }f\right)(x₁,x₂):=1/\Gamma (z+1/2){\int \int |u-1|}^z\psi (u-1){f(x₁-t,x₂-u|t|}^{\alpha }{\left)du\right|t|}^{\gamma }dt/t$, where ψ is a bump function on ℝ supported near the origin, $f{\in }_c^{\infty }\left(ℝ²\right)$, z,γ ∈ ℂ, Re γ ≥ 0, α ∈ ℝ, α ≥ 2. We determine the set of all (1/p,1/q,Re z) such that $S_z^{\gamma ,\alpha }$ maps $L^p\left(ℝ²\right)$ to $L^q\left(ℝ²\right)$ boundedly. Our proof is based on product-type kernel arguments. More precisely, we prove that the kernel $K_{-1+i\theta }^{i\varrho ,\alpha }$ is a product kernel on ℝ², adapted to the curve ${t\mapsto \left|t\right|}^{\alpha }$; as a consequence, we show...

In the present paper, we prove nonexistence results for the following nonlinear evolution equation, see works of T. Cazenave and A. Haraux (1990) and S. Zheng (2004), $$u_{tt}+f\left(x\right)u_t+{(-\Delta )}^{\alpha /2}\left(u^m\right)=h(t,x){\left|u\right|}^p,$$ posed in $(0,T)\times {ℝ}^N,$ where ${(-\Delta )}^{\alpha /2},0<\alpha \le 2$ is $\alpha /2$-fractional power of $-\Delta .$ Our method of proof is based on suitable choices of the test functions in the weak formulation of the sought solutions. Then, we extend this result to the case of a $2\times 2$ system of the same type.

Let $A_{\alpha }f\left(x\right)={\left|B\right(0,\left|x\right|\left)\right|}^{-\alpha /n}{\int }_{B(0,|x\left|\right)}f\left(t\right)dt$ be the n-dimensional fractional Hardy operator, where 0 < α ≤ n. It is well-known that $A_{\alpha }$ is bounded from $L^p$ to $L^{p_{\alpha }}$ with $p_{\alpha }=np/(\alpha p-np+n)$ when n(1-1/p) < α ≤ n. We improve this result within the framework of Banach function spaces, for instance, weighted Lebesgue spaces and Lorentz spaces. We in fact find a ’source’ space $S_{\alpha ,Y}$, which is strictly larger than X, and a ’target’ space $T_Y$, which is strictly smaller than Y, under the assumption that $A_{\alpha }$ is bounded from X into Y and the Hardy-Littlewood...

This paper considers the initial-boundary value problem for the nonlinear diffusion equation with the perturbation term $$u_t+(-\Delta +1)\beta \left(u\right)+G\left(u\right)=g\text{in}\Omega \times (0,T)$$ in an unbounded domain $\Omega \subset {ℝ}^N$ with smooth bounded boundary, where $N\in \mathbb{N}$, $T>0$, $\beta$, is a single-valued maximal monotone function on $ℝ$, e.g., $$\beta \left(r\right)={\left|r\right|}^{q-1}r(q>0,q\ne 1)$$ and $G$ is a function on $ℝ$ which can be regarded as a Lipschitz continuous operator from ${\left(H^1\left(\Omega \right)\right)}^{*}$ to ${\left(H^1\left(\Omega \right)\right)}^{*}$. The present work establishes existence and estimates for the above problem.

Let $X_1,\cdots ,X_n$ be Banach spaces and $f$ a real function on $X=X_1\times \cdots \times X_n$. Let $A_f$ be the set of all points $x\in X$ at which $f$ is partially Fréchet differentiable but is not Fréchet differentiable. Our results imply that if $X_1,\cdots ,X_{n-1}$ are Asplund spaces and $f$ is continuous (respectively Lipschitz) on $X$, then $A_f$ is a first category set (respectively a $\sigma$-upper porous set). We also prove that if $X$, $Y$ are separable Banach spaces and $f:X\to Y$ is a Lipschitz mapping, then there exists a $\sigma$-upper porous set $A\subset X$ such that $f$ is Fréchet differentiable...

Given a two-dimensional fractional multiplicative process ${\left(F_t\right)}_{t\in [0,1]}$ determined by two Hurst exponents $H_1$ and $H_2$, we show that there is an associated uniform Hausdorff dimension result for the images of subsets of $[0,1]$ by $F$ if and only if $H_1=H_2$.

In this paper we examine self-similar solutions to the system $u_{it}-d_i\Delta u_i={\prod }_{k=1}^m{u}_k^{p_k^i}$, i = 1,…,m, $x\in {ℝ}^N$, t > 0, $u_i(0,x)=u_{0i}\left(x\right)$, i = 1,…,m, $x\in {ℝ}^N$, where m > 1 and $p_k^i>0$, to describe asymptotics near the blow up point.

In this note we shall prove that for a continuous function $\varphi :\Delta \to {ℝ}^n$, where $\Delta \subset ℝ$,  the paratingent of $\varphi$ at $a\in \Delta$ is a non-empty and compact set in ${ℝ}^n$ if and only if $\varphi$ satisfies Lipschitz condition in a neighbourhood of $a$. Moreover, in this case the paratingent is a connected set.

A linear Boltzmann equation is interpreted as the forward equation for the probability density of a Markov process $\left(K\right(t),i(t),Y(t\left)\right)$ on $({𝕋}^2\times \{1,2\}\times {ℝ}^2)$, where ${𝕋}^2$ is the two-dimensional torus. Here $\left(K\right(t),i(t\left)\right)$ is an autonomous reversible jump process, with waiting times between two jumps with finite expectation value but infinite variance. $Y\left(t\right)$ is an additive functional of $K$, defined as ${\int }_0^{t}v\left(K\left(s\right)\right)\mathrm{d}s$, where $\left|v\right|\sim 1$ for small $k$. We prove that the rescaled process ${(NlnN)}^{-1/2}Y\left(Nt\right)$ converges in distribution to a two-dimensional Brownian motion. As a consequence,...

Let $\mu$ be a nonnegative Borel measure on ${ℝ}^d$ satisfying that $\mu \left(Q\right)\le l{\left(Q\right)}^n$ for every cube $Q\subset {ℝ}^n$, where $l\left(Q\right)$ is the side length of the cube $Q$ and $0<n\le d$. We study the class of pairs of weights related to the boundedness of radial maximal operators of fractional type associated to a Young function $B$ in the context of non-homogeneous spaces related to the measure $\mu$. Our results include two-weighted norm and weak type inequalities and pointwise estimates. Particularly, we give an improvement of a two-weighted result...

Our aim is to establish Sobolev type inequalities for fractional maximal functions $M_{ℍ,\nu }f$ and Riesz potentials $I_{ℍ,\alpha }f$ in weighted Morrey spaces of variable exponent on the half space $ℍ$. We also obtain Sobolev type inequalities for a $C^1$ function on $ℍ$. As an application, we obtain Sobolev type inequality for double phase functionals with variable exponents $\Phi (x,t)=t^{p\left(x\right)}+{\left(b\left(x\right)t\right)}^{q\left(x\right)}$, where $p(·)$ and $q(·)$ satisfy log-Hölder conditions, $p\left(x\right)<q\left(x\right)$ for $x\in ℍ$, and $b(·)$ is nonnegative and Hölder continuous of order $\theta \in (0,1]$.

Let $F$ be a closed subset of ${ℝ}^n$ and let $P\left(x\right)$ denote the metric projection (closest point mapping) of $x\in {ℝ}^n$ onto $F$ in $l^p$-norm. A classical result of Asplund states that $P$ is (Fréchet) differentiable almost everywhere (a.e.) in ${ℝ}^n$ in the Euclidean case $p=2$. We consider the case $2<p<\infty$ and prove that the $i$th component $P_i\left(x\right)$ of $P\left(x\right)$ is differentiable a.e. if $P_i\left(x\right)\ne x_i$ and satisfies Hölder condition of order $1/(p-1)$ if $P_i\left(x\right)=x_i$.

It is proved that real functions on $ℝ$ which can be represented as the difference of two semiconvex functions with a general modulus (or of two lower $C^1$-functions, or of two strongly paraconvex functions) coincide with semismooth functions on $ℝ$ (i.e. those locally Lipschitz functions on $ℝ$ for which $f_{+}^{\text{'}}\left(x\right)={lim}_{t\to x+}{f}_{+}^{\text{'}}\left(t\right)$ and $f_{-}^{\text{'}}\left(x\right)={lim}_{t\to x-}{f}_{-}^{\text{'}}\left(t\right)$ for each $x$). Further, for each modulus $\omega$, we characterize the class $DS{C}_{\omega }$ of functions on $ℝ$ which can be written as $f=g-h$, where $g$ and $h$ are semiconvex with modulus $C\omega$ (for some $C>0$) using a new...
