Improved critical Hardy inequality and Leray-Trudinger type inequalities in Carnot groups

Abstrakti

In this paper, we prove an improvement of the critical Hardy inequality in Carnot groups. We show that this improvement is sharp and can not be improved. We apply this improved critical Hardy inequality together with the Moser-Trudinger inequality due to Balogh, Manfredi and Tyson (2003) to establish the Leray-Trudinger type inequalities which extend the inequalities of Psaradakis and Spector (2015) and Mallick and Tintarev (2018) to the setting of Carnot groups.
