A new approach to weighted Hardy-Rellich inequalities: improvements, symmetrization principle and symmetry breaking (2310.06637v1)

Abstract: We investigate necessary and sufficient conditions on the weights for the Hardy-Rellich inequalities to hold, and propose a new way to use the notion of Bessel pair to establish the optimal Hardy-Rellich type inequalities. Our results sharpened earlier Hardy-Rellich and Rellich type inequalities in the literature. We also study several results about the symmetry and symmetry breaking properties of the Rellich type and Hardy-Rellich type inequalities, and then partially answered an open question raised by Ghoussoub and Moradifam. Namely, we will present conditions on the weights such that the Rellich type and Hardy-Rellich type inequalities hold for all functions if and only if the same inequalities hold for all radial functions.
