Stability of Hardy-Sobolev Inequality

Souptik Chakraborty

Abstract

Given $N\geq 3,$ we consider the critical Hardy-Sobolev equation $-Δu-\fracγ{|x|^2}u=\frac{|u|^{2^*(s)-2}u}{|x|^s}$ in $\mathbb{R}^N\setminus \{0\},$ where $0<γ<γ_{H}:=\left(\frac{N-2}{2}\right)^2,\,s\in (0,2)$ and $2^*(s)=\frac{2(N-s)}{(N-2)}.$ We prove a stability estimate for the corresponding Hardy-Sobolev inequality in the spirit of Bianchi-Egnell (1991). Also, we obtain a Struwe-type decomposition (1984) for the corresponding Euler-Lagrange equation. Finally, we prove a quantitative bound for one bubble, namely $\operatorname{dist}(u,\mathcal{M})\lesssim Γ(u)$ in the spirit of Ciraolo-Figalli-Maggi (2017).

Key Result

Theorem 1.1

(BE) There exists a positive constant $\alpha>0$ ($\alpha$ depends only on $N$), The exponent $\frac{1}{2}$ is sharp in the sense that the inequality fails if we replace $\frac{1}{2}$ by any other exponent strictly bigger than $\frac{1}{2}$ as we consider $\delta_{Eu}(u)\to 0$.
