We show that any Lie point symmetry of semilinear Kohn-Laplace equations on the Heisenberg group H^1 with power nonlinearity is a divergence symmetry if and only if the corresponding exponent assumes critical value.
We study the Lie point symmetries of semilinear Kohn-Laplace equations on the Heisenberg group H^1 and obtain a complete group classification of these equations.
Using the complete group classification of semilinear differential equations on the three-dimensional Heisenberg group carried out in a preceding work, we establish the conservation laws for the critical Kohn-Laplace equations via the Noether's Theorem.
We show which Lie point symmetries of non-critical semilinear Kohn-Laplace equations on the Heisenberg group $H^1$ are Noether symmetries and we establish their respectives conservations laws.
We use a suitable transform related to Sobolev inequality to investigate the sharp constants and optimizers for some Caffarelli-Kohn-Nirenberg-type inequalities which are related to the weighted $p$-Laplace equations. Moreover, we give the classification to the linearized problem related to the radial extremals. As an application, we investigate the gradient type remainder term of related inequality by using spectral estimate combined with a compactness argument which extends the work of Figalli and Zhang (Duke Math. J. 2022) at least for radial case.
For $1\leq q \leq n-2$, we provide explicit examples to demonstrate non-compactness of the Neumann operator for the Kohn Laplacian acting on $L^2$ $(0,q)$-forms on the unit ball in $(2n+1)$-dimensional Heisenberg space.
We derive two equivalent definitions of the viscosity solutions to the homogeneous sub-p- Laplace parabolic equations on the Heisenberg group, and characterize the viscosity solutions in terms of an asymptotic mean value formula. Moreover, we construct an example to show that these formulae do not hold in non-asymptotic sense.
In this note we construct an integral boundary condition for the Kohn Laplacian in a given domain on the Heisenberg group extending to the setting of the Heisenberg group M. Kac's "principle of not feeling the boundary". This also amounts to finding the trace on smooth surfaces of the Newton potential associated to the Kohn Laplacian. We also obtain similar results for higher powers of the Kohn Laplacian.
We discuss the wellposedness of the Neumann problem on a half-space for the Kohn-Laplacian in the Heisenberg group. We then construct the Neumann function and explicitly represent the solution of the associated inhomogeneous problem.
Existence and uniqueness of the solution of the Neumann problem for the Kohn-Laplacian on the Korányi ball of the Heisenberg group $\mathbb{H}_n$ are discussed. Explicit representations of Green's type function (Neumann function) for the half space and Korányi ball in $\mathbb{H}_n$ for circular functions have been obtained. These functions are then used on above regions in $\mathbb{H}_n$ to solve the inhomogeneous Neumann boundary value problem for circular data.
In this article, we are study the following Dirichlet problem with Choquard type non linearity \[ -Δ_{\mathbb{H}} u = a u+ \left(\int_Ω\frac{|u(η)|^{Q^*_λ}}{|η^{-1}ξ|^λ}dη\right)|u|^{Q^*_λ-2}u \; \text{in}\; Ω,\quad u = 0 \; \text{ on } \partial Ω, \] where $Ω$ is a smooth bounded subset of the Heisenberg group $\mathbb{H}^N, N\in \mathbb N$ with $C^2$ boundary and $Δ_{\mathbb{H}}$ is the Kohn Laplacian on the Heisenberg group $\mathbb{H}^N$. Here, $Q^*_λ=\frac{2Q-λ}{Q-2},\; Q= 2N+2$ and $a$ is a positive real parameter. We derive the Brezis-Nirenberg type result for the above problem. Moreove…
Beals, Gaveau and Greiner (1996) find the fundamental solution to a 2-Laplace-type equation in a class of sub-Riemannian spaces. This solution is related to the well-known fundamental solution to the p-Laplace equation in Grushin-type spaces (Bieske-Gong, 2006) and the Heisenberg group (Capogna, Danielli, Garofalo, 1997). We extend the 2-Laplace-type equation to a p-Laplace-type equation. We show that the obvious generalization does not have desired properties, but rather, our generalization preserves some natural properties.
We consider positive critical points of Caffarelli-Kohn-Nirenberg inequalities and prove a Liouville type result which allows us to give a complete classification of the solutions in a certain range of parameters, providing a symmetry result for positive solutions. The governing operator is a weighted $p$-Laplace operator, which we consider for a general $p \in (1,d)$. For $p=2$, the symmetry breaking region for extremals of Caffarelli-Kohn-Nirenberg inequalities was completely characterized in [J. Dolbeault, M. Esteban, M. Loss, Invent. Math. 44 (2016)]. Our results extend this result to a ge…
We present a proof of the local Hölder regularity of the horizontal derivatives of weak solutions to the $p$-Laplace equation in the Heisenberg group $\mathbb{H}^1$ for $p>4 $.
We find fundamental solutions to p-Laplace equations with drift terms in the Heisenberg group and Grushin-type planes. These solutions are natural generalizations to the fundamental solutions discovered by Beals, Gaveau, and Greiner for the Laplace equation with drift term. Our results are independent of the results of Bieske and Childers, in that Bieske and Childers consider a generalization that focuses on a p-Laplace-type equation while we primarily concentrate on a generalization of the drift term.
Consider the wave equation associated with the Kohn Laplacian on groups of Heisenberg type. We construct parametrices using oscillatory integral representations and use them to prove sharp $L^p$ and Hardy space regularity results.
In an interesting note, E.M. Stein observed some 20 years ago that while the Kohn Laplacian $\square_b$ on functions is neither locally solvable nor (analytic) hypoelliptic, the addition of a non-zero complex constant reversed these conclusions at least on the Heisenberg group, and Kwon reproved and generalized this result using the method of concatenations. Recently Hanges and Cordaro have studied this situation on the Heisenberg group in detail. Here we give a purely $L^2$ proof of Stein's result using the author's now classical construction of $(T^p)_ϕ= ϕT^p +...,$ where $T$ is the 'missing…
We prove some basic inequalities relating the Gagliardo-Nirenberg seminorms of a symmetric function $u$ on $\mathbb R^n$ and of its perturbation $uφ_μ$, where $φ_μ$ is a suitably chosen eigenfunction of the Laplace-Beltrami operator on the sphere $\mathbb S^{n-1}$, thus providing a technical but rather powerful tool to detect symmetry breaking and multiplicity phenomena in variational equations driven by the fractional Laplace operator. A concrete application to a problem related to the fractional Caffarelli-Kohn-Nirenberg inequality is given.
The goal of this article is to establish local Lipschitz continuity of weak solutions for a class of degenerated elliptic equations of divergence form, in the Heisenberg Group. The considered hypothesis for the growth and ellipticity condition is a natural generalization of the p-Laplace equation and more general quasilinear elliptic equations with polynomial or exponential type growth.

We prove dispersive and Strichartz inequalities for the solution of the wave equation related to the full Laplacian on the Heisenberg group, by means of Besov spaces defined by a Littlewood--Paley decomposition related to the spectral resolution of the full Laplacian. This requires a careful analysis due also to the non-homogeneous nature of the full Laplacian. This result has to be compared to a previous one by Bahouri, Gérard and Xu concerning the solution of the wave equation related to the Kohn-Laplacian.
In this note, we concentrate on the sub-Laplace on the nilpotent Lie group of rank two, which is the infinitesimal generator of the diffusion generated by $n$ Brownian motions and their $\frac{n(n-1)}2$ Lévy area processes, which is the simple extension of the sub-Laplace on the Heisenberg group $\mathbb{H}$. In order to study contraction properties of the heat kernel, we show that, as in the cases of the Heisenberg group and the three Brownian motion model, the restriction of the sub-Laplace acting on radial functions (see Definition \ref{radial fun}) satisfies a positive Ricci curvature cond…
In this paper we define an intrinsic notion of principal for the Hypoelliptic calculus on Heisenberg manifolds. More precisely, the principal symbol of a \psivdo appears as a homogeneous section over the linear dual of the tangent Lie algebra bundle of the manifold. This definition is an important step towards using global $K$-theoretic tools in the Heisenberg setting, such as those involved in the elliptic setting for proving the Atiyah-Singer index theorem or the regularity of the eta invariant. On the other hand, the intrinsic definition of the principal symbol enables us to give an intrins…
In this paper, generalised weighted $L^p$-Hardy,$ L^p$-Caffarelli-Kohn-Nirenberg, and $L^p$-Rellich inequalities with boundary terms are obtained on stratified Lie groups. As consequences, most of the Hardy type inequalities and Heisenberg- Pauli-Weyl type uncertainty principles on stratified groups are recovered. Moreover, a weighted $L^2$-Rellich type inequality with the boundary term is obtained.
We give dimension-free regularity conditions for a class of possibly degenerate sub-elliptic equations in the Heisenberg group exhibiting super-quadratic growth in the horizontal gradient; this solves an issue raised by Manfredi & Mingione (Math. Ann. 2007) where only dimension dependent bounds for the growth exponent are given. We also obtain explicit a priori local regularity estimates, and cover the case of the horizontal p-Laplacean operator, extending some regularity proven by Domokos & Manfredi (Cont. Math. 2005). In turn, the a priori estimates found are shown to imply the suitable loca…
The aim of this paper is to study the qualitative behaviour of non-negative entire solutions of certain differential inequalities involving gradient terms on the Heisenberg group. We focus our investigation on the two classes of inequalities of the form $Δ^ϕu \ge f(u)l(|\nabla u|)$ and $Δ^ϕu \ge f(u) - h(u) g(|\nabla u|)$, where $f,l,h,g$ are non-negative continuous functions satisfying certain monotonicity properties. The operator $Δ^ϕ$, called the $ϕ$-Laplacian, can be viewed as a natural generalization of the $p$-Laplace operator recently considered by various authors in this setting. We pr…
Different authors had received a lot of results regarding the Euler and Navier-Stokes equations. Existence and smoothness of solution for the Navier-Stokes equations in two dimensions have been known for a long time. Leray showed that the Navier-Stokes equations in three dimensional space have a weak solution. Scheffer, and Shnirelman, obtained weak solution of the Euler equations with compact support in spacetime. Caffarelli, Kohn and Nirenberg improved Scheffer's results, and F.-H. Lin simplified the proof of the results of J. Leray. Many problems and conjectures about behavior of weak solut…
We present an invariant definition of the hypoelliptic Laplacian on sub-Riemannian structures with constant growth vector, using the Popp's volume form introduced by Montgomery. This definition generalizes the one of the Laplace-Beltrami operator in Riemannian geometry. In the case of left-invariant problems on unimodular Lie groups we prove that it coincides with the usual sum of squares. We then extend a method (first used by Hulanicki on the Heisenberg group) to compute explicitly the kernel of the hypoelliptic heat equation on any unimodular Lie group of type I. The main tool is the noncom…
The overall goal of this dissertation is to investigate certain classical results from harmonic analysis, replacing the Euclidean setting, the abelian structure and the elliptic Laplace operator with a non-commutative environment and hypoelliptic operators. More specifically, we consider wave equations for hypoelliptic homogeneous left-invariant operators on graded Lie groups with time-dependent non-negative propagation speeds that are Hölder-regular or even more so. The corresponding Euclidean problem has been extensively studied in the `80s and some additional results have been recently obta…
