Let (M, g) be a smooth compact Riemannian manifold of dimension n ≥ 3. Let also A be a smooth symmetrical positive (0,2)-tensor field in M. By the Sobolev embedding theorem, we can write that there exist K, B > 0 such that for any $u\in H_{1}^{2}(M)$ , $\left(\int_{M}|u|^{2^{\ast}}dv_{g}\right)^{2/2^{\ast}}\leq K\int_{M}A_{x}(\nabla _{u},\nabla _{u})dv_{g}+B\int_{M}u^{2}dv_{g}$ where
... [Show full abstract] $H_{1}^{2}(M)$ is the standard Sobolev space of functions in L² with one derivative in L². We investigate in this paper the value of the sharp K in the equation above, the validity of the corresponding sharp inequality, and the existence of extremal functions for the saturated version of the sharp inequality.
