Abstract: |
Let $\Omega$ be a domain in $\mathbb{R}^N$. It is shown that a
generalized Poincar\'{e} inequality holds in cones contained in the
Sobolev space $W^{1,p(\cdot)}(\Omega)$, where $p(\cdot) : \overline
\Omega \to[1,\infty[$ is a variable exponent. This inequality is itself
a corollary to a more general result about equivalent norms
over such cones. The approach in this paper avoids the difficulty arising from the
possible lack of density of the space $\mathcal{D}(\Omega)$ in the
space $\{v\in W^{1,p(\cdot)}(\Omega) ; \mathop{\mathrm{tr}} v = 0
\text{ on } \partial \Omega\}$. Two applications are also discussed. |
