Extension Operator for $W^{1,\infty}(U,X)$

I am reading through some lectures on Sobolev spaces and the vector-valued (or Banach space valued) version of them. At this moment I am very interested in extension operators for the vector-valued ...

Interpolation of some Sobolev spaces

Let $X_0=L^2(0,1)$, $X_1=H^4(0,1)$, $X_2=H^4(0,1)\cap H^2_0(0,1)$. We know the interpolation space $$(X_0,X_1)_{1/2,2}=H^2(0,1).$$ I am wondering what is $$(X_0,X_2)_{1/2,2}=?$$ Would it be $H^2_0(0,...

Completion of $C_0^{\infty}(\mathbb{R}^N)$ with norm $\|u\|= \Bigg(\int_{{\mathbb{R}}^N} |\Delta u |^2 \, \mathrm{d}x \Bigg)^{\frac{1}{2}}. $

I have a question that I could not find it any where. Is the completion of $C_0^{\infty}(\mathbb{R}^N)$ with the respect to norm $$\|u\|= \Bigg(\int_{{\mathbb{R}}^N} |\Delta u |^2 \, \mathrm{d}x \...

Orthonormal Basis of Multi-Dimensional Sobolev Space of Different Orders without Reproducing Kernel

Let $\Omega$ be an open subset of $\mathbb{R}^d$. Under regularity conditions, we know that the $s$-th order Sobolev space $H^s(\Omega)$ with $s \geq d/2$ is a reproducing kernel Hilbert space. In ...

Consider the standard open ball $B_r:=\left\{x ; \left\lvert x \right\rvert \le R \right\}.$ The trace theorem tells us any function in $W^{k,p}(B_r)$ can be restricted to a function $W^{k-1,p}(\...

Convergence in $H^{-2}$ of $L^2$-functions with limit in $L^2$

Assume a sequence $f_n$ in $L^2(\mathbb{R}^d)$ converges in $H^{-2}$ (w.r.t. its norm topology) to a limit $f \in L^2(\mathbb{R}^d)$. In this case, can one improve the convergence, for instance to ...
