Homogeneous Newton-Sobolev spaces in metric measure spaces and their Banach space properties (2311.17356v1)

Abstract: In this note we prove the Banach space properties of the homogeneous Newton-Sobolev spaces $HN^{1,p}(X)$ of functions on an unbounded metric measure space $X$ equipped with a doubling measure supporting a $p$-Poincar\'e inequality, and show that when $1<p<\infty$, even with the lack of global $L^p$-integrability of functions in $HN^{1,p}(X)$, we have that every bounded sequence in $HN^{1,p}(X)$ has a strongly convergent convex-combination subsequence. The analogous properties for the inhomogeneous Newton-Sobolev classes $N^{1,p}(X)$ are proven elsewhere in existing literature
