Isoperimetric and Functional Inequalities

We establish lower estimates for an integral functional$$\int\limits_\Omega f(u(x), \nabla u(x)) \, dx ,$$where \(\Omega\) -- a bounded domain in \(\mathbb{R}^n \; (n \geqslant 2)\), an integrand \(f(t,p) \, (t \in [0, \infty),\; p \in \mathbb{R}^n)\) -- a function that is \(B\)-measurable with resp...

description We establish lower estimates for an integral functional$$\int\limits_\Omega f(u(x), \nabla u(x)) \, dx ,$$where \(\Omega\) -- a bounded domain in \(\mathbb{R}^n \; (n \geqslant 2)\), an integrand \(f(t,p) \, (t \in [0, \infty),\; p \in \mathbb{R}^n)\) -- a function that is \(B\)-measurable with respect to a variable \(t\) and is convex and even in the variable \(p\), \(\nabla u(x)\) -- a gradient (in the sense of Sobolev) of the function \(u \colon \Omega \rightarrow \mathbb{R}\). In the first and the second sections we utilize properties of permutations of differentiable functions and an isoperimetric inequality \(H^{n-1}( \partial A) \geqslant \lambda(m_n A)\), that connects \((n-1)\)-dimensional Hausdorff measure \(H^{n-1}(\partial A )\) of relative boundary \(\partial A\) of the set \(A \subset \Omega\) with its \(n\)-dimensional Lebesgue measure \(m_n A\). The integrand \(f\) is assumed to be isotropic, i.e. \(f(t,p) = f(t,q)\) if \(|p| = |q|\).Applications of the established results to multidimensional variational problems are outlined. For functions \( u \) that vanish on the boundary of the domain \(\Omega\), the assumption of the isotropy of the integrand \( f \) can be omitted. In this case, an important role is played by the Steiner and Schwartz symmetrization operations of the integrand \( f \) and of the function \( u \). The corresponding variants of the lower estimates are discussed in the third section. What is fundamentally new here is that the symmetrization operation is applied not only to the function \(u\), but also to the integrand \(f\). The geometric basis of the results of the third section is the Brunn-Minkowski inequality, as well as the symmetrization properties of the algebraic sum of sets.
