A Gamma convergence approach to the critical Sobolev embedding in variable exponent spaces

In this paper, we study the critical Sobolev embeddings W1,p(.)(Ω)⊂Lp*(.)(Ω) for variable exponent Sobolev spaces from the point of view of the Γ-convergence. More precisely we determine the Γ-limit of subcritical approximation of the best constant associated with this embedding. As an application w...

Sumario:In this paper, we study the critical Sobolev embeddings W1,p(.)(Ω)⊂Lp*(.)(Ω) for variable exponent Sobolev spaces from the point of view of the Γ-convergence. More precisely we determine the Γ-limit of subcritical approximation of the best constant associated with this embedding. As an application we provide a sufficient condition for the existence of extremals for the best constant. © 2016 Elsevier Inc.
