Suppose $H^2$ is the Hardy space of the unit disc in the complex plane, while $\Theta$ is an inner function. We give conditions for a sequence of normalized reproducing kernels in the model space $K_{\Theta }=H^2\ominus \Theta H^2$ to be asymptotically close to an orthonormal sequence. The completeness problem is also investigated.

We introduce a sort of "local" Morrey spaces and show an existence and uniqueness theorem for the Dirichlet problem in unbounded domains for linear second order elliptic partial differential equations with principal coefficients "close" to functions having derivatives in such spaces.

The distributional $k$-dimensional Jacobian of a map $u$ in the Sobolev space $W^{1,k-1}$ which takes values in the sphere $S^{k-1}$ can be viewed as the boundary of a rectifiable current of codimension $k$ carried by (part of) the singularity of $u$ which is topologically relevant. The main purpose of this paper is to investigate the range of the Jacobian operator; in particular, we show that any boundary $M$ of codimension $k$ can be realized as Jacobian of a Sobolev map valued in $S^{k-1}$. In case $M$ is polyhedral, the map we construct...

Let ${\left(F_n\right)}_{n\in \mathbb{N}}$ be a sequence of non-decreasing functions from $[0,+\infty )$ into $[0,+\infty )$. Under some suitable hypotheses of ${\left(F_n\right)}_{n\in \mathbb{N}}$, we will prove that if $g\in L^p\left({ℝ}^N\right)$, $1<p<+\infty$, satisfies ${lim\; inf}_{n\to \infty }{\int }_{{ℝ}^N}{\int }_{{ℝ}^N}{F}_n{\left(\right|g\left(x\right)-g\left(y\right)\left|\right)/|x-y|}^{N+p}dxdy<+\infty$, then $g\in W^{1,p}\left({ℝ}^N\right)$ and moreover ${lim}_{n\to \infty }{\int }_{{ℝ}^N}{\int }_{{ℝ}^N}{F}_n{\left(\right|g\left(x\right)-g\left(y\right)\left|\right)/|x-y|}^{N+p}dxdy=K_{N,p}{\int }_{{ℝ}^N}{\left|\nabla g\left(x\right)\right|}^{p}dx$, where $K_{N,p}$ is a positive constant depending only on $N$ and $p$. This extends some results in J. Bourgain and H-M. Nguyen [A new characterization of Sobolev spaces, C. R. Acad Sci. Paris, Ser. I 343 (2006) 75-80] and H-M. Nguyen [Some new characterizations of Sobolev spaces, J. Funct. Anal. 237 (2006) 689-720]. We also present some partial results...

We revisit the concept of Stepanov--Orlicz almost periodic functions introduced by Hillmann in terms of Bochner transform. Some structural properties of these functions are investigated. A particular attention is paid to the Nemytskii operator between spaces of Stepanov--Orlicz almost periodic functions. Finally, we establish an existence and uniqueness result of Bohr almost periodic mild solution to a class of semilinear evolution equations with Stepanov--Orlicz almost periodic forcing term.
