Levin-Cochran-Lee inequalities and best constants on homogeneous groups
Michael Ruzhansky, Markos Fisseha Yimer
TL;DR
The paper extends Levin-Cochran-Lee type inequalities to homogeneous Lie groups for $0<p\le q<\infty$ using a direct-method approach. It develops a general exponential-averaged inequality over balls and a weight-characterization criterion via $A(\alpha)$ to determine when the inequality holds and to bound the best constant. The authors provide necessary and sufficient conditions, dual formulations, and sharp constants for power-weight cases when $p=q$, along with broader corollaries and extensions to weighted exponential inequalities on non-Euclidean spaces. This work broadens Hardy-type inequalities to homogeneous groups, offering explicit constants and a versatile framework for weighted exponential inequalities in noncommutative, non-Euclidean settings.
Abstract
In this paper, we apply a direct method instead of a limit approach, for proving the Levin-Cochran-Lee inequalities. First, we state and prove Levin-Cochran-Lee type inequalities on a homogeneous group $\mathbb{G}$ with parameters $0<p\leq q<\infty$. Furthermore, for the case $p=q$, we prove the sharp inequalities with power weights and derive some other new inequalities.
