Observe that given a non negative function $\omega: \mathbb{R^2} \rightarrow [0, \infty]$, we can define the weighted $L^{p}(\mathbb{R}^2, \omega) $ spaces. They are measurable functions $f: \mathbb{R}^2 \rightarrow \mathbb{R}$ such that their weighted $L^p$ norm is finite i.e., $$ \int |f|^p \omega d \mu < \infty. $$ Similarly, we can define the weighted Sobolev spaces $W^{k,p}(\mathbb{R}^2, \omega)$. They are the completion with respect to the weighted $L^p$ norm of the spaces of $k$ times differentiable functions that have finite weighted Sobolev $p$-norm. Now consider the linear operator $$ T: W^{k,p}(\mathbb{R}^2, \omega) \rightarrow W^{k-1,p}(\mathbb{R}^2, \omega) $$ given by $$ T(v(x,y)) := \frac{\partial v(x,y)}{ \partial x}.$$ My question is as follows: does there exist some weight $\omega(x,y)$ and $k$ and $p$ such that the following are true: 1) The functions $(x,y) \rightarrow x$, $(x,y) \rightarrow e^x$, $(x,y) \rightarrow y$ and $(x,y) \rightarrow e^y$ all belong to $W^{k,p}(\mathbb{R}^2, \omega)$ and $T$ maps into $W^{k-1,p}(\mathbb{R}^2, \omega)$. 2) The map $T$ is a contraction mapping of metric spaces, i.e. $$ |T(v)| < |v| \qquad \forall v.$$ 3) The map $T$ is surjective. My guess is that $$ \omega(x,y) := e^{-(x^2+y^2)} $$ should do the trick, but I am not certain. The motivation for this question is to show that a certain pde has a solution, via the contraction mapping principal. The map $T$ arises as the linearization of some map.
