A Universality Property of Sobolev Spaces in Metric Measure Spaces

  • Chapter
Book cover Sobolev Spaces In Mathematics I

Part of the book series: International Mathematical Series ((IMAT,volume 8))

Abstract

Current research on analysis in metric measure spaces has used alternative notions of Sobolev functions on metric measure spaces. We show that, under some mild geometric assumptions on the metric measure space, all these notions give the same class of functions.
