Abstract:

We prove a characterization of Hardy's inequality in Sobolev-Slobodeckii spaces in terms of positive local weak supersolutions of the relevant Euler-Lagrange equation. This extends previous results by Ancona and Kinnunen & Korte for standard Sobolev spaces. The proof is based on variational methods.

Keywords: fractional Sobolev spaces, Nonlocal operators, Hardy inequality
