Reference request: Simple facts about vector-valued Sobolev space
Let $V,H$ be separable Hilbert spaces such that there are dense injections $V \hookrightarrow H \hookrightarrow V^*$. (For example, $H = L^2(\mathbb{R}^n)$, $V = H^1(\mathbb{R}^n)$, $V^* = H^{-1}(\...

Traces of Sobolev spaces
Is there a simple proof of the following fact?
Theorem. Let $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^n$ be a bounded and smooth domain. If $n>2$, then $W^{1,n-1}(\partial\Omega)\subset
W^{1-\frac{1}{n},n}(\...

$L^p$ domination of mixed partial derivatives by the unmixed ones?
Is it true that for each real $p\ge1$ there is some real $C_p$ such that for all smooth real-valued functions $u$ compactly supported on $S:=(0,1)^2$ one has
$$\|D_1D_2u\|_p\le C_p(\|D_1^2u\|_p+\|D_2^...

Hyperbolic PDEs - Proof that the restriction of a locally $H^s$ solution to a spacelike hypersurface is locally in $H^s$
I have found the following claim made very clearly at least once in the published literature (see below):
Let $P$ be a linear partial differential operator defined on an open set $\Omega \subset \...

Continuous embedding between parabolic Sobolev spaces
I was wondering whether the following continuous embedding theorem for parabolic Sobolev space is correct?
Let $I=[0,T]$ and $\Omega$ be a sufficiently smooth domain in $\mathbb{R}^n$, we consider ...

Mixed (anisotropic) Sobolev spaces
Consider real variables $x, y$ and a function $f(x, y) \in H^s(\mathbb{R}^2)$, say for some $s \in (0, 1)$. I am trying to get an understanding of mixed Sobolev spaces of the form $H^s_x(H^s_y)$, ...

Relationship between $p$-capacity and Riesz $s$-capacity of a set
What is the relationship between the definitions of $s$-capacity (page 13 here) and $p$-capacity (here) of a set?
Are they equivalent? If not, what inequalities hold? What is the difference (in terms ...

Properties of Sobolev spaces $W^{k,p}(\Omega, E)$ where $E$ is a Banach space
$\newcommand{\R}{\mathbb R}$Let $E$ be a Banach space with norm $\|\cdot\|_E$ and let $\Omega\subset \R^n$ be an open set.
For $k\geq 0, p\geq 1$ we define $W^{k,p}(\Omega, E)$, the Sobolev space of ...
