Sobolev spaces are smooth? Their dual is strictly convex?
Do you know any reference which says something about the:
Smoothness of the Sobolev space $W^{1,p}(\Omega)$ i.e. if the duality mapping $J\colon W^{1,p}(\Omega)\to W^{1,p}(\Omega)^*$ is a singleton.

Trace theorem for $L^2([0,1]; H^k(S^2))$
Consider a function $u$ in $L^2([0,1]; H^k(S^2))$ where $k$ is a positive integer.
Where would $u(0)$ live (or $u(r)$ for some fixed $r \in [0,1]$)? Is there a version of the trace theorem saying that ...

Maximal function estimate for differential quotient of function satisfying $\nabla f \in BMO$
For a function $f \in W^{1,p}(\mathbb R^N)$, it is well-known that there exists a constant $C_N$ (dependent on $N$) such that
$$
|f(x)-f(y)| \le C_N|x-y|(\mathcal M|\nabla f|(x) + \mathcal M|\nabla f|(...

Non convex optimization problem in $W_0^{1,2}$
Let $0< \alpha \ll 1$. I'm trying to minimize $\int_0^\pi |f'|^2 dx$ over the functions $f \in W_0^{1,2}([0,\pi])$ (or at least find "good" lower bound in terms of $\alpha$) such that ...

Does anyone know what is the right reference for the following simple lemma from harmonic analysis?
The lemma says that given $\lambda\geq 1$, $p\geq 1$, $a_j\geq 0$, for a collection of balls $\{B_j\}_{j\in\mathbb{N}}$ in $\mathbb{R}^n$, it holds
$$\bigg\|\sum_j a_j\chi_{\lambda B_j}\bigg\|_p\leq C(...
