For potentials $U_K^T=K*T$, where $K$ and $T$ are certain Schwartz distributions, an inversion formula for $T$ is derived. Convolutions and Fourier transforms of distributions in $\left({\mathbf{D}}_L^{\text{'}}p\right)$-spaces are used. It is shown that the equilibrium distribution with respect to the Riesz kernel of order $\alpha$, $0\<\alpha \<m$, of a compact subset $E$ of ${\mathbf{R}}^m$ has the following property: its restriction to the interior of $E$ is an absolutely continuous measure with analytic density which is expressed by an explicit formula.

Let 1 ≤ p < ∞, k ≥ 1, and let Ω ⊂ ℝⁿ be an arbitrary open set. We prove a converse of the Calderón-Zygmund theorem that a function $f\in W^{k,p}\left(\Omega \right)$ possesses an $L^p$ derivative of order k at almost every point x ∈ Ω and obtain a characterization of the space $W^{k,p}\left(\Omega \right)$. Our method is based on distributional arguments and a pointwise inequality due to Bojarski and Hajłasz.

In this paper we consider the regularity problem for the commutators $\left(\right[b,R_k]{)}_{1\le k\le n}$ where $b$ is a locally integrable function and $(R_j{)}_{1\le j\le n}$ are the Riesz transforms in the $n$-dimensional euclidean space ${ℝ}^n$. More precisely, we prove that these commutators $\left(\right[b,R_k]{)}_{1\le k\le n}$ are bounded from $L^p$ into the Besov space ${\dot{B}}_p^{s,p}$ for $1\&lt;p\&lt;+\infty$ and $0\&lt;s\&lt;1$ if and only if $b$ is in the $BMO$-Triebel-Lizorkin space ${\dot{F}}_{\infty }^{s,p}$. The reduction of our result to the case $p=2$ gives in particular that the commutators $\left(\right[b,R_k]{)}_{1\le k\le n}$ are bounded form $L^2$ into the Sobolev space ${\dot{H}}^s$ if and only if $b$...

In this work we will be concerned with the existence of almost homoclinic solutions for a Newtonian system $q̈+{\nabla }_{q}V(t,q)=f\left(t\right)$, where t ∈ ℝ, q ∈ ℝⁿ. It is assumed that a potential V: ℝ × ℝⁿ → ℝ is C¹-smooth and its gradient map ${\nabla }_{q}V:ℝ\times ℝⁿ\to ℝⁿ$ is bounded with respect to t. Moreover, a forcing term f: ℝ → ℝⁿ is continuous, bounded and square integrable. We will show that the approximative scheme due to J. Janczewska (see [J2]) for a time periodic potential extends to our case.

Soit $F$ un sous-ensemble compact de ${\mathbf{R}}^m$ ayant des points intérieurs et soit ${\mu }_{\alpha }^F$ la distribution d’équilibre sur $F$ de masse totale 1 par rapport au noyau $r^{\alpha -m}$ avec $0\&lt;\alpha \&lt;2$ pour $m\ge 2$, et $0\&lt;\alpha \&lt;1$ pour $m=1$. La restriction de ${\mu }_{\alpha }^F$ à l’intérieur de $F$ est absolument continue et a pour densité $f_{\alpha }^F$. On donne une formule explicite pour $f_{\alpha }^F$ et, pour une classe générale d’ensembles $F$, on démontre que $f_{\alpha }^F$, définie en réalité sur un ensemble de mesure de Lebesgue nulle, croît comme la distance à la frontière $\partial F$ de $F$ élevée à la puissance...

We consider the problem $$\left\{\begin{array}{cc}-\Delta u=u^{\frac{N+2}{N-2}+\lambda }\hfill & \text{in}\Omega \setminus \epsilon \omega ,\hfill \\ u\&gt;0\hfill & \text{in}\Omega \setminus \epsilon \omega ,\hfill \\ u=0\hfill & \text{on}\partial \left(\Omega \setminus \epsilon \omega \right),\hfill \end{array}\right.$$ where $\Omega$ and $\omega$ are smooth bounded domains in ${ℝ}^N$, $N\ge 3$, $\epsilon \&gt;0$ and $\lambda \in ℝ.$ We prove that if the size of the hole $\epsilon$ goes to zero and if, simultaneously, the parameter $\lambda$ goes to zero at the appropriate rate, then the problem has a solution which blows up at the origin.

Let $\Omega$ be a smooth bounded domain in ${ℝ}^N,N\&gt;1$ and let $n\in {\mathbb{N}}^{*}$. We prove here the existence of nonnegative solutions $u_n$ in $BV\left(\Omega \right)$, to the problem $$\left(P_n\right)\left\{\begin{array}{cc}-div\sigma +2n\left({\int }_{\Omega }u-1\right){sign}^{+}\left(u\right)=0\hfill & \text{in}\Omega ,\hfill \\ \sigma ·\nabla u=\left|\nabla u\right|\hfill & \text{in}\Omega ,\hfill \\ u\text{is}\text{not}\text{identically}\text{zero},-\sigma ·\overrightarrow{n}u=u\hfill & \text{on}\partial \Omega ,\hfill \end{array}\right.$$ where $\overrightarrow{n}$ denotes the unit outer normal to $\partial \Omega$, and ${\mathrm{sign}}^{+}\left(u\right)$ denotes some $L^{\infty }\left(\Omega \right)$ function defined as: $${\mathrm{sign}}^{+}\left(u\right).u=u^{+},0\le {\mathrm{sign}}^{+}\left(u\right)\le 1.$$ Moreover, we prove the tight convergence of $u_n$ towards one of the first eingenfunctions for the first $1-$Laplacian Operator $-{\Delta }_1$ on $\Omega$ when $n$ goes to $+\infty$.

Let $R$ be a ring. In two previous articles [12, 14] we studied the homotopy category $𝐊\left(R\text{-}\mathrm{Proj}\right)$ of projective $R$-modules. We produced a set of generators for this category, proved that the category is ${\aleph }_1$-compactly generated for any ring $R$, and showed that it need not always be compactly generated, but is for sufficiently nice $R$. We furthermore analyzed the inclusion $j_{!}^{}:𝐊\left(R\text{-}\mathrm{Proj}\right)\to 𝐊\left(R\text{-}\mathrm{Flat}\right)$ and the orthogonal subcategory $𝒮={𝐊\left(R\text{-}\mathrm{Proj}\right)}^{\perp }$. And we even showed that the inclusion $𝒮\to 𝐊\left(R\text{-}\mathrm{Flat}\right)$ has a right adjoint; this forces some natural map to be...

We prove necessary and sufficient conditions for the validity of the classical chain rule in the Sobolev space $W_{\text{loc}}^{1,1}({ℝ}^N;{ℝ}^d)$ and in the space $B{V}_{\text{loc}}({ℝ}^N;{ℝ}^d)$ of functions of bounded variation.

We collect and extend results on the limit of ${\sigma }^{1-k}{(1-\sigma )}^k{\left|v\right|}_{l+\sigma ,p,\Omega }^p$ as σ → 0⁺ or σ → 1¯, where Ω is ℝⁿ or a smooth bounded domain, k ∈ 0,1, l ∈ ℕ, p ∈ [1,∞), and ${\left|·\right|}_{l+\sigma ,p,\Omega }$ is the intrinsic seminorm of order l+σ in the Sobolev space $W^{l+\sigma ,p}\left(\Omega \right)$. In general, the above limit is equal to $c{\left[v\right]}^p$, where c and [·] are, respectively, a constant and a seminorm that we explicitly provide. The particular case p = 2 for Ω = ℝⁿ is also examined and the results are then proved by using the Fourier transform.
