We establish necessary and sufficient conditions on the real- or complex-valued potential $Q$ defined on ${ℝ}^n$ for the relativistic Schrödinger operator $\sqrt{-\Delta }+Q$ to be bounded as an operator from the Sobolev space $W_2^{1/2}\left({ℝ}^n\right)$ to its dual $W_2^{-1/2}\left({ℝ}^n\right)$.

Let K be a compact subset of ${ℂ}^N$. A sequence of nonnegative numbers defined by means of extremal points of K with respect to homogeneous polynomials is proved to be convergent. Its limit is called the homogeneous transfinite diameter of K. A few properties of this diameter are given and its value for some compact subsets of ${ℂ}^N$ is computed.

Our aim in this paper is to establish Trudinger’s inequality on Musielak-Orlicz-Morrey spaces $L^{\Phi ,\kappa }\left(G\right)$ under conditions on $\Phi$ which are essentially weaker than those considered in a former paper. As an application and example, we show Trudinger’s inequality for double phase functionals $\Phi (x,t)=t^{p\left(x\right)}+a\left(x\right)t^{q\left(x\right)}$, where $p(·)$ and $q(·)$ satisfy log-Hölder conditions and $a(·)$ is nonnegative, bounded and Hölder continuous.
