duality of sobolev spaces. Representation of elements in the dual
I'm trying to understand $(W_0^{1,p} (Ω))^*=W_0^{-1,p^*} (Ω)$, and what a proper representation of its elements is. I understand the basics such as: if $f∈L^{p^*} (Ω)⇒f∈W_0^{-1,p^*}(Ω)$ and the ...

Dual space of local Sobolev space on a manifold
$\newcommand{\comp}{\mathrm{comp}}$As part of my master's thesis, I am currently learning about Sobolev spaces on manifolds. From my research online, I found out, that there are a lot of ways to ...

Absolute continuity of $t \to \lVert u(t) \rVert^2_{H}$ and Gelfand triple : are they equivalent?
Let $V$ be a separable Banach space and $H$ be a separable Hilbert space such that
\begin{equation}
V \subset H \subset V'
\end{equation}
and the inclusion maps are continuous with dense images. Here $...

Does weak-* convergence in $W^{1,\infty}$ imply weak-* convergence in $L^\infty$?
Let $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^n$ be open and bounded.
What does weak-* convergence for a sequence of functions $\{f_k\}_{k \in \mathbb{N}}$ in $W^{1,\infty}(\Omega)$ mean? It seems to me that there ...

Dual norm for weighted Sobolev space
Consider a "weight" function $\rho: \mathbb{R}^{d} \rightarrow \mathbb{R}$ and the following weighted Sobolev norm:
\begin{equation}
\|h\|_{\dot{H}^{1}(\rho;\mathbb{R}^{d})}:=(\int_{\mathbb{...

Confusing definition of homogeneous Sobolev norm of order -1
Let $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^{d}$ and $\|.\|$ is the standard euclidean $2$-norm. I came across a definition of $\dot{H}^{-1}(\Omega)$ which is a bit confusing. In [1] authors define the following ...

Dual space of mean-free Sobolev space
I am considering the space $V:=\{v \in H^1(\Omega): \int_\Omega v = 0\}$ of mean free functions. What is the dual space of this space? Is the dual space given by $D:= \{f \in (H^1(\Omega))^*: \langle ...

How is the duality pairing of $H^{1/2}$ and $H^{-1/2}$ defined on a subset of the boundary?
Let $\Omega\in \mathbb{R}^d$,for $d\in \{2,3\}$ be a bounded polyhedral set with $n$ boundary faces labeled $\{e_i\}_{i=1}^n$.
Let $\vec{q}\in H^{\mathrm{div}}(\Omega).$ Given $u\in H^{1/2}(\...

Equivalent Norms for the Dual of Sobolev / Bessel Spaces
Using standard notation, we refer to $H^s(\mathbb R) = W^{s,2}(\mathbb R)$ to be the Sobolev Hilbert spaces. As is often the case, it's natural to then consider properties of functions in $H^s(\mathbb ...

Characterizing the Dual of $W_0^{s,p}$
I am interested in literature/results characterizing the dual of the fractional Sobolev space $W^{s,p}(\Omega)$, where $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^N$ is open, bounded, and smooth, $0< s<1$, and $...
