Abstract

For a general Carnot group G with homogeneous dimension Q we prove the existence of a fundamental solution of the Q-Laplacian u Q and a constant a Q >0 such that exp(− a Q u Q ) is a homogeneous norm on G. This implies a representation formula for smooth functions on G which is used to prove the sharp Carnot group version of the celebrated Moser–Trudinger inequality.
