ABSTRACT

We prove some general Sobolev-Orlicz, Nash and Faber-Krahn inequalities for positive operators of given ultracontractive norms of the spectral projectors on ]0, lambda]. For invariant operators on coverings of finite simplicial complexes this "ultracontractive spectral decay" is equivalent to von-Neumann's spectral density function. This allows in the polynomial decay case to relate the Novikov-Shubin numbers of such coverings to Sobolev inequalities on exact $\ell^2$-cochains, and to the vanishing of the torsion of the $\ell^{p,2}$-cohomology for some $p \geq 2$.

##### Article: Sobolev inequalities for differential forms and L q,p -cohomology
[Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: We study the relation between Sobolev inequalities for differential forms on a Riemannian manifold (M, g) and the Lq,p-cohomology of that manifold. The Lq,p-cohomology of (M,g) is defined to be the quotient of the space of closed differential forms in Lp(M) modulo the exact forms which are exterior differentials of forms in Lq (M).
