The sharp Sobolev type inequalities in the Lorentz--Sobolev spaces in the hyperbolic spaces

Abstract

Let $W^1L^{p,q}(\mathbb H^n)$, $1\leq q,p < \infty$ denote the Lorentz-Sobolev spaces of order one in the hyperbolic spaces $\mathbb H^n$. Our aim in this paper is three-fold. First of all, we establish a sharp Poincar\'e inequality in $W^1L^{p,q}(\mathbb H^n)$ with $1\leq q \leq p$ which generalizes the result in \cite{NgoNguyenAMV} to the setting of Lorentz-Sobolev spaces. Second, we prove several sharp Poincar\'e-Sobolev type inequalities in $W^1L^{p,q}(\mathbb H^n)$ with $1\leq q \leq p < n$ which generalize the results in \cite{NguyenPS2018} to the setting of Lorentz-Sobolev spaces. Finally, we provide the improved Moser-Trudinger type inequalities in $W^1L^{n,q}(\mathbb{H}^n)$ in the critical case $p= n$ with $1\leq q \leq n$ which generalize the results in \cite{NguyenMT2018} and improve the results in \cite{YangLi2019}. In the proof of the main results, we shall prove a P\'olya--Szeg\"o type principle in $W^1 L^{p,q}(\mathbb H^n)$ with $1\leq q \leq p$ which maybe is of independent interest.
