Radial Sobolev embedding

AbbreviationReal \(n\)-space with the Euclidean norm#✓fully proved

For a natural number \(n\), \(\mathbb{R}^n\) denotes the \(n\)-dimensional real Euclidean space: real \(n\)-tuples with the Euclidean inner product and norm.

DefinitionClosed unit ball of \(\mathbb{R}^n\)#✓fully proved

For a natural number \(n\), the closed unit ball of \(\mathbb{R}^n\) is the set \(\{x \in \mathbb{R}^n : \|x\| \le 1\}\), where \(\|\cdot\|\) is the Euclidean norm.

DefinitionRadial functions on \(\mathbb{R}^n\)#✓fully proved

A function \(f \colon \mathbb{R}^n \to \mathbb{R}\) is radial if \(f(x) = f(y)\) for all \(x, y \in \mathbb{R}^n\) with \(\|x\| = \|y\|\), where \(\|\cdot\|\) is the Euclidean norm.

TheoremRadial Sobolev embedding outside the unit ball#●ready to prove

Let \(n \ge 2\), let \(B\) be the closed unit ball of \(\mathbb{R}^n\), and let \(1 < p < 2\) and \(p \le q \le \infty\). Then there is a constant \(C > 0\) such that every radial function \(f \colon \mathbb{R}^n \to \mathbb{R}\) that has compact support, whose closed support is contained in \(\mathbb{R}^n \setminus B\), and which is \(C^\infty\) on \(\mathbb{R}^n \setminus B\), satisfies

\[\|f\|_{L^q} \le C \left( \|f\|_{L^p} + \big\| |Df| \big\|_{L^p} \right),\]

where the norms are taken with respect to Lebesgue measure and \(|Df(x)|\) is the operator norm of the derivative of \(f\) at \(x\).

Smoothness here means \(C^\infty\). The source's formal statement asked for real-analyticity instead, which makes the claim vacuous: an analytic, radial, compactly supported \(f\) vanishes outside the ball.
