Abstract

We establish sharp Adams type inequalities on Sobolev spaces \(W^{\alpha , n/\alpha }(X)\) of any fractional order \(\alpha < n\) on Riemannian symmetric space X of noncompact type with dimension n and of arbitrary rank. We also establish sharp Hardy–Adams inequalities on the Sobolev spaces \(W^{n/2, 2}(X)\). We use Fourier analysis on the symmetric spaces to obtain these results.
