Extremal functions for a supercritical k-Hessian inequality of Sobolev-type
José Francisco de Oliveira, Pedro Ubilla
Abstract
Our main purpose in this paper is to investigate a supercritical Sobolev-type inequality for the $k$-Hessian operator acting on $Φ^{k}_{0,\mathrm{rad}}(B)$, the space of radially symmetric $k$-admissible functions on the unit ball $B\subset\mathbb{R}^{N}$. We also prove both the existence of admissible extremal functions for the associated variational problem and the solvability of a related $k$-Hessian equation with supercritical growth.
