Abstract
We establish sharpened forms of the Hardy type identities and inequalities which are substantial improvements of Hardy inequalities for the operators −ΔH−(N−1)24 on the hyperbolic spaces HN. More precisely, we study the refined Hardy-Poincaré-Sobolev type inequalities in the spirit of Brezis-Vázquez [17] and Brezis-Marcus [15] on hyperbolic spaces, spherically symmetric Riemannian manifolds and more general Riemannian manifolds. Spherically symmetric manifolds are also of significant importance in physics and general relativity. Our approaches are to first establish the Hardy-Poincaré-Sobolev type identities using the notion of Bessel pairs on hyperbolic spaces and related Riemannian manifolds. Using a Hardy identity on upper half space, we also establish a sharp Sobolev inequality on a novel example of noncomplete and non-extendable Riemannian manifold with positive Ricci curvature. In particular, in dimension 3, our example shows that the completeness assumption of the manifolds in the rigidity result of Ledoux [47] cannot be removed.
