Sobolev-Norms:

Let $(M,g)$ be a two-dimensional compact remannian-manifold without boundary $r>0$, define for $f\in\mathcal C^\infty(M)$ the sobolev-inequalites $$ \Vert f\Vert_{W^{k,p}(M)} := \sum_{l=0}^k r^l\cdot\left\Vert \vert\nabla^l f\vert_g\right\Vert_{L^p(M)}\qquad\forall f\in\mathcal C^1(M),\ k\in\mathbb N_{\ge0}, $$ where $\nabla$ is the levi-civita connection. $W^ {k,p}(M)$ is as usual the completion of $\mathcal C^\infty(M)$ for this norm, and as usual we identifiy elements of $W^{k,p}$-with almost every-where defined functions.


$\triangle$-$W^{1,\infty}$-, -$W^{2,2}$-, -$L^\infty$-regularities:

Let $M$ be a two-dimensional compact manifold without boundary and $c,r\in\mathbb R_{>0}$, such that $$ \vert M\vert \le cr^2, \quad \Vert \text{Ric}(M) \Vert_{L^\infty(M)} \le \frac c{r^2},\quad \Vert f\Vert_{L^2(M)} \le \frac cr\Vert f\Vert_{W^{1,1}(M)} \quad\forall f\in W^{1,1}(M) $$ and $c>\lambda_1$, where $\lambda_1$ is the smallest positiv eigenvalue of $-\triangle$. There is a constant $C=C(c)$ such that $$ \Vert f\Vert_{W^{2,2}(M)} \le C(r^2\Vert \triangle f\Vert_{L^2(M)}+\Vert f\Vert_{L^2(M)}) \qquad\forall f\in W^{2,2}(M), \tag{1} $$ $$ \Vert f\Vert_{L^\infty(M)} \le C(r\Vert \triangle f\Vert_{L^2(M)}+r^{-1}\Vert f\Vert_{L^2(M)}) \qquad\forall f\in W^{2,2}(M), \tag{2} $$ $$ \Vert f\Vert_{W^{1,\infty}(M)} \le Cr^{-\frac2p}(r^2\Vert \triangle f\Vert_{L^p(M)}+\Vert f\Vert_{L^p(M)}) \qquad\forall f\in W^{2,p}(M),\ p>2, \tag{3} $$ if $r>C$.


Proof [as Deane Yang suggested by a Moser-iteration]:

Be setting $g:=\vert f\vert^{\frac 12}$, we get the usual sobolev-inequalites $$\Vert f\Vert_{L^q(M)} \le \frac cr\Vert f\Vert_{W^{1,p}(M)} \quad\forall f\in W^{1,p}(M),\ 1\le p< 2: \ q=\frac{2p}{2-p}. \tag 4$$ By an argument as as in [1] we conclude the additional sobolev-inequality $$\Vert f\Vert_{L^\infty(M)} \le cr^{-\frac2p}\Vert f\Vert_{W^{1,p}(M)} \qquad\forall f\in W^{1,p}(M), 2< p. \tag 5 $$ Using that $div\nabla X=g^{ij}Ric(X,e_i)e_j+\nabla div X$ for any frame $\lbrace e_1,e_2\rbrace$ and any smooth vector field $X$, we conclude $(1)$ by defining $X=\nabla f$ and partial integration and therefore we can deduce $(2)$ with $(5)$.

Let $f\in W^{2,p}(M)$ be such that $\int f=0$, in particular $\Vert f\Vert_{L^2(M)} \le c \Vert\triangle f\Vert_{L^2(M)}$, and assume there exists a polnom $P$ and a constant $C$ such that for $q=\frac{2p}{p-2}$ $$ \Vert \vert\nabla f\vert^{2s}\Vert_{L^p(M)} \le P(s)\left(\left(\frac Csr^{\frac2p}\Vert\triangle f\Vert_{L^q(M)}\right)^{2r}+r^{-\frac2p}\Vert\vert\nabla f\vert^r\Vert_{L^p(M)}\right). \tag6 $$ Setting $a_i:=(r^{2^i-\frac2p}\Vert\vert\nabla f\vert^{2^i}\Vert_{L^p(M)})^{2^{-i}}$, we conclude by basic analysis $$ r\Vert \nabla f\Vert_{L^\infty(M)} \le C\left(r^{1-\frac2p}\Vert\triangle f\Vert_{L^p(M)}+r^{1+\frac2p}\Vert\nabla f\Vert_{L^{\frac{2p}{2-p}}(M)}\right). $$ This inequality obviously also holds for $f+d$ ($d\in\mathbb R)$. So we only have to prove $(6)$ for a polnyom and a constant not depending on $f\in\mathcal C^\infty(M)$ with $\int f\ d\mu=0$. By basic analysis and some partial integrations we see $$ \int \vert\nabla(\vert\nabla f\vert^s)\vert^2\ d\mu \le -s\int\vert\nabla f\vert^{2s-2}g(\nabla f,\triangle\nabla f). $$ We conclude by hölder-inequalities and partial integration $$ \int \vert\nabla(\vert\nabla f\vert^s)\vert^2\ d\mu \le Csr^{\frac2{ps}}\Vert \vert\nabla f\vert^{2s}\Vert_{L^p(M)}^{\frac{s-1}s}\underbrace{\left(\begin{aligned}\Vert\text{Ric}\Vert_{L^\infty(M)}\cdot\Vert\nabla f\Vert_{L^{\frac{2p}{p-1}}(M)}^2+\Vert\triangle f\Vert_{L^{\frac{2p}{p-1}}(M)}^2 \\\\ + \Vert\triangle f\Vert_{L^2(M)}\cdot\Vert\triangle f\Vert_{L^{\frac{2p}{p-2}}(M)} \\\\ + \Vert\text{ric}\Vert_{L^\infty(M)}^{\frac12}\Vert\nabla f\Vert_{L^2(M)}\cdot\Vert\triangle f\Vert_{L^{\frac{2p}{p-2}}(M)}\end{aligned}\right)}_{=: c_f}. $$ By some Yang- and Hölderinequalities and using $\Vert f\Vert_{L^2(M)}\le c\Vert \triangle f\Vert_{L^2(M)}$ we see for $q:=\frac{2p}{2-p}$ and the inequality for $\text{ric}$ $$ c_f \le C_pr^{\frac2p}\Vert\triangle f\Vert_{L^q(M)}^2. $$ By the Sobolev- and Young-inequalities we therefore can conclude $(6)$ for $P(s)=s^6$ using the inequality for $\text{ric}$.

Proof [as Deane Yang suggested by a Moser-iteration]:

Be setting $g:=\vert f\vert^{\frac 12}$, we get the usual sobolev-inequalites $$\Vert f\Vert_{L^q(M)} \le \frac cr\Vert f\Vert_{W^{1,p}(M)} \quad\forall f\in W^{1,p}(M),\ 1\le p< 2: \ q=\frac{2p}{2-p}. \tag 4$$ By an argument as as in [1] we conclude the additional sobolev-inequality $$\Vert f\Vert_{L^\infty(M)} \le cr^{-\frac2p}\Vert f\Vert_{W^{1,p}(M)} \qquad\forall f\in W^{1,p}(M), 2< p. \tag 5 $$ Using that $div\nabla X=g^{ij}Ric(X,e_i)e_j+\nabla div X$ for any frame $\lbrace e_1,e_2\rbrace$ and any smooth vector field $X$, we conclude $(1)$ by defining $X=\nabla f$ and partial integration and therefore we can deduce $(2)$ with $(5)$.

Let $f\in W^{2,p}(M)$ be such that $\int f=0$, in particular $\Vert f\Vert_{L^2(M)} \le c \Vert\triangle f\Vert_{L^2(M)}$, and assume there exists a polnom $P$ and a constant $C$ such that for $q=\frac{2p}{p-2}$ $$ \Vert \vert\nabla f\vert^{2s}\Vert_{L^p(M)} \le P(s)\left(\left(\frac Csr^{\frac2p}\Vert\triangle f\Vert_{L^q(M)}\right)^{2r}+r^{-\frac2p}\Vert\vert\nabla f\vert^r\Vert_{L^p(M)}\right). \tag6 $$ Setting $a_i:=(r^{2^i-\frac2p}\Vert\vert\nabla f\vert^{2^i}\Vert_{L^p(M)})^{2^{-i}}$, we conclude by basic analysis $$ r\Vert \nabla f\Vert_{L^\infty(M)} \le C\left(r^{1-\frac2p}\Vert\triangle f\Vert_{L^p(M)}+r^{1+\frac2p}\Vert\nabla f\Vert_{L^{\frac{2p}{2-p}}(M)}\right). $$ This inequality obviously also holds for $f+d$ ($d\in\mathbb R)$. So we only have to prove $(6)$ for a polnyom and a constant not depending on $f\in\mathcal C^\infty(M)$ with $\int f\ d\mu=0$. By basic analysis and some partial integrations we see $$ \int \vert\nabla(\vert\nabla f\vert^s)\vert^2\ d\mu \le -s\int\vert\nabla f\vert^{2s-2}g(\nabla f,\triangle\nabla f). $$ We conclude by hölder-inequalities and partial integration $$ \int \vert\nabla(\vert\nabla f\vert^s)\vert^2\ d\mu \le Csr^{\frac2{ps}}\Vert \vert\nabla f\vert^{2s}\Vert_{L^p(M)}^{\frac{s-1}s}\underbrace{\left(\begin{aligned}\Vert\text{Ric}\Vert_{L^\infty(M)}\cdot\Vert\nabla f\Vert_{L^{\frac{2p}{p-1}}(M)}^2+\Vert\triangle f\Vert_{L^{\frac{2p}{p-1}}(M)}^2 \\\\ + \Vert\triangle f\Vert_{L^2(M)}\cdot\Vert\triangle f\Vert_{L^{\frac{2p}{p-2}}(M)} \\\\ + \Vert\text{ric}\Vert_{L^\infty(M)}^{\frac12}\Vert\nabla f\Vert_{L^2(M)}\cdot\Vert\triangle f\Vert_{L^{\frac{2p}{p-2}}(M)}\end{aligned}\right)}_{=: c_f}. $$ By some Yang- and Hölderinequalities and using $\Vert f\Vert_{L^2(M)}\le c\Vert \triangle f\Vert_{L^2(M)}$ we see for $q:=\frac{2p}{2-p}$ and the inequality for $\text{ric}$ $$ c_f \le C_pr^{\frac2p}\Vert\triangle f\Vert_{L^q(M)}^2. $$ By the Sobolev- and Young-inequalities we therefore can conclude $(6)$ for $P(s)=s^6$ using the inequality for $\text{ric}$.

Let $f\in W^{2,p}(M)$ be such that $\int f=0$, in particular $\Vert f\Vert_{L^2(M)} \le c \Vert\triangle f\Vert_{L^2(M)}$, and assume there exists a polnom $P$ and a constant $C$ such that for $q=\frac{2p}{p-2}$ $$ \Vert \vert\nabla f\vert^{2s}\Vert_{L^p(M)} \le P(s)\left(\left(\frac Csr^{\frac2p}\Vert\triangle f\Vert_{L^q(M)}\right)^{2r}+r^{-\frac2p}\Vert\vert\nabla f\vert^r\Vert_{L^p(M)}\right). \tag6 $$ Setting $a_i:=(r^{2^i-\frac2p}\Vert\vert\nabla f\vert^{2^i}\Vert_{L^p(M)})^{2^{-i}}$, we conclude by basic analysis $$ r\Vert \nabla f\Vert_{L^\infty(M)} \le C\left(r^{1-\frac2p}\Vert\triangle f\Vert_{L^p(M)}+r^{1+\frac2p}\Vert\nabla f\Vert_{L^{\frac{2p}{2-p}}(M)}\right). $$ This inequality obviously also holds for $f+d$ ($d\in\mathbb R)$. So we only have to prove $(6)$ for a polnyom and a constant not depending on $f\in\mathcal C^\infty(M)$ with $\int f\ d\mu=0$. By basic analysis and some partial integrations we see $$ \int \vert\nabla(\vert\nabla f\vert^s)\vert^2\ d\mu \le -s\int\vert\nabla f\vert^{2s-2}g(\nabla f,\triangle\nabla f). $$ We conclude by hölder-inequalities and partial integration $$ \int \vert\nabla(\vert\nabla f\vert^s)\vert^2\ d\mu \le Csr^{\frac2{ps}}\Vert \vert\nabla f\vert^{2s}\Vert_{L^p(M)}^{\frac{s-1}s}\underbrace{\left(\begin{aligned}\Vert\text{Ric}\Vert_{L^\infty(M)}\cdot\Vert\nabla f\Vert_{L^{\frac{2p}{p-1}}(M)}^2+\Vert\triangle f\Vert_{L^{\frac{2p}{p-1}}(M)}^2 \\\\ + \Vert\triangle f\Vert_{L^2(M)}\cdot\Vert\triangle f\Vert_{L^{\frac{2p}{p-2}}(M)} \\\\ + \Vert\text{ric}\Vert_{L^\infty(M)}^{\frac12}\Vert\nabla f\Vert_{L^2(M)}\cdot\Vert\triangle f\Vert_{L^{\frac{2p}{p-2}}(M)}\end{aligned}\right)}_{=: c_f}. $$ By some Yang- and Hölderinequalities and using $\Vert f\Vert_{L^2(M)}\le c\Vert \triangle f\Vert_{L^2(M)}$ we see for $q:=\frac{2p}{2-p}$ and the inequality for $\text{ric}$ $$ c_f \le C_pr^{\frac2p}\Vert\triangle f\Vert_{L^q(M)}^2. $$ By the Sobolev- and Young-inequalities we therefore can conclude $(6)$ for $P(s)=s^6$ using the inequality for $\text{ric}$.
