Towards a unified theory of Sobolev inequalities
We discuss our work on pointwise inequalities for the gradient which are
connected with the isoperimetric profile associated to a given geometry. We
show how they can be used to unify certain aspects of the theory of Sobolev
inequalities. In particular, we discuss our recent papers on fractional order
inequalities, Coulhon type inequalities, transference and dimensionless
inequalities and our forthcoming work on sharp higher order Sobolev
inequalities that can be obtained by iteration.Comment: 39 pages, made some changes to section 1
