Remainder Terms for Several Inequalities on Some Groups of Heisenberg-type

Abstract: We give some estimates of the remainder terms for several conformally-invariant Sobolev-type inequalities on the Heisenberg group, in analogy with the Euclidean case. By considering the variation of associated functionals, we give a stability of two dual forms: the fractional Sobolev (Folland-Stein) and Hardy-Littlewood-Sobolev inequality, in terms of distance to the submanifold of extremizers. Then we compare their remainder terms to improve the inequalities in another way. We also compare, in the limit case s = Q (or $\lambda$ = 0), the remainder terms of Beckner-Onofri inequality and its dual Logarithmic Hardy-Littlewood-Sobolev inequality. Besides, we also list without proof some results for the other two cases of groups of Iwasawa-type. Our results generalize earlier works on Euclidean spaces by Chen, Frank, Weth [CFW13] and Dolbeault, Jankowiakin [DJ14] onto some groups of Heisenberg-type.
