Let Ω be a bounded domain in R and denote by id the restriction operator from the Besov space B (R) into the generalized Lipschitz space Lip(Ω). We study the sequence of entropy numbers of this operator and prove that, up to logarithmic factors, it behaves asymptotically like e(id) ~ k if α > max (1 + 2/p + 1/q, 1/p). Our estimates improve previous results by Edmunds and Haroske.

Kinetic equilibration rates for granular media and related equations: entropy dissipation and mass transportation estimates.

Similarity:

The long-time asymptotics of certain nonlinear , nonlocal, diffusive equations with a gradient flow structure are analyzed. In particular, a result of Benedetto, Caglioti, Carrillo and Pulvirenti [4] guaranteeing eventual relaxation to equilibrium velocities in a spatially homogencous model of granular flow is extended and quantified by computing explicit relaxation rates. Our arguments rely on establishing generalizations of logarithmic Sobolev inequalities and mass transportation inequalities,...
