New Brezis-Van Schaftingen-Yung Sobolev type inequalities connected with maximal inequalities and one parameter families of operators

Abstract: Motivated by the recent characterization of Sobolev spaces due to Brezis-Van Schaftingen-Yung we prove new weak-type inequalities for one parameter families of operators connected with mixed norm inequalities. The novelty here comes from the fact that the underlying measure space incorporates the parameter as a variable. The connection to classical and fractional order Sobolev spaces is shown through the use of generalized Riesz potential spaces and the Caffarelli-Silvestre extension principle. Higher order inequalities are also considered. We indicate many examples and applications to PDE's and different areas of Analysis, suggesting a vast potential for future research. In a different direction, and inspired by methods originally due to Gagliardo and Garsia, we obtain new maximal inequalities which combined with mixed norm inequalities are applied to obtain Brezis--Van Schaftingen--Yung type inequalities in the context of Calder\'{o}n-Campanato spaces. In particular, Log versions of the Gagliardo-Brezis-Van Schaftingen-Yung spaces are introduced and \ compared with corresponding limiting versions of Calder\'{o}n-Campanato spaces, resulting in a sharpening of recent inequalities due to Crippa-De Lellis and Bru\'{e}-Nguyen.
