Jun 15, 2011 at 16:21 comment added Nilima Nigam Yakov, the answer is 'yes'. One defines $H^s(\Omega)$ for any open set as the distributions which are the restrictions to $\Omega$ of some $U\in H^s(\mathbb{R}^n)$,with the norm being the induced norm. This provides the continuous inclusion of $H^s(\Omega) \subset W^{s,2}(\Omega)$ for $s\geq 0$. [To obtain set equality, one needs $\Omega$ to permit an extension operator. Set equality holds for any non-empty open $\Omega$, and $s$ the negative integers.] One then uses Peetre's inequality on the object $U$. MacLean's book has good discussion.
Jun 15, 2011 at 13:50 comment added Yakov Shlapentokh-Rothman Is approach (b) supposed to work for $\Omega \neq \mathbb{R}^n$? It is not clear to me how the Fourier transform will be useful unless $\Omega = \mathbb{R}^n$, since that is the only case in which the Sobolev spaces are defined directly in terms of the Fourier transform.
