Abstract
We compute the precise value of the measure of noncompactness of Sobolev embeddings W-0(1, p) (sic) L-p(D), p is an element of(1, infinity), on strip-like domains D of the form R-k x Pi(n-k)(j=1) (r(j), q(j)). We show that such embeddings are always maximally noncompact, that is, their measure of noncompactness coincides with their norms.
Furthermore, we show that not only the measure of noncompactness but also all strict s-numbers of the embeddings in question coincide with their norms. We also prove that the maximal noncompactness of Sobolev embeddings on strip-like domains remains valid even when Sobolev-type spaces built upon general rearrangement-invariant spaces are considered.
As a by-product we obtain the explicit form for the first eigenfunction of the pseudo- p-Laplacian on an n-dimensional rectangle. (C) 2021 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
