Let $M = [1,\infty) \times S^2$.

Consider the weighted Sobolev space $H^k_{\delta}(M)$ with the Sobolev norm: $$\lVert u \rVert_{k,\delta}^2 := \sum_{n=0}^k \int_M |D^nu \,r^{n-\delta}|^2 r^{-3} dV $$ for $u \in H^k_{\delta}(M)$.

Given $u \in H^k_{\delta}(M)$, we can expand it in terms of the spherical harmonics: $$u (r,x) = \sum_{l=0}^{\infty} \sum_{m=0}^{2l+1} c_{lm}(r) Y_{lm}(x)$$ where $r \in [1,\infty)$, $x\in S^2$, and $Y_{lm}$ are the spherical harmonics.

Question #1: How can I write the Sobolev norm $\lVert \cdot \rVert_{k,\delta}$ in terms of the coefficients $c_{lm}$? Is there a Sobolev norm equivalent to $\lVert \cdot \rVert_{k,\delta}$ in terms of the spherical harmonics coefficients?
