An elementary proof is given of the weight characterisation for the Hardy inequalityIt is also shown that certain weighted inequalities with monotone kernels are equivalent to inequalities in which one of the weights is monotone. Using this, a characterisation of those weights for which (1.1) holds with 0 < q < I = p is given. Results for (1.1), considered as an inequality over monotone functions / are presented.
Necessary and sufficient conditions for the boundedness from L%(U + ) to L*((R + ) of Volterra integral operators of the form K/(x)= \'k(x,y)f(y)dy, Jo where k(x,y) is a non-negative kernel under suitable monotone conditions, are given. The cases 1 < / ? < < ? < oo, 1 < q < p < oo and 0 < g < l < / ? < o o a r e considered. The results extend the well-known weighted norm Hardy inequality. k(x,y) = ^r ) (x-yy-1 f o r r^l when 1
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
