On a supercritical k-Hessian inequality of Trudinger-Moser type and extremal functions

Abstract

We establish a supercritical Trudinger-Moser type inequality for the $k$-Hessian operator on the space of the $k$-admissible radially symmetric functions $\Phi^{k}_{0,\mathrm{rad}}(B)$, where $B$ is the unit ball in $\mathbb{R}^{N}$. We also prove the existence of extremal functions for this new supercritical inequality.
