We prove several different, and independent, improved inequalities, one of which is a Poincar\\'e-Hardy inequality, namely an improvement of the best $p$-Poincar\\'e inequality in terms of the Hardy weight $r^{-p}$, $r$ being geodesic distance from a given pole. Certain Hardy-Maz'ya-type inequalities in the Euclidean half-space are also obtained.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2016-11-25T10:48:28.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "hyperbolic space", "poincare inequality", "poincare-hardy inequality", "euclidean half-space", "best constant" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
