Trace theorems for Sobolev-Slobodeckij spaces with or without weights by Doyoon Kim

“…We prove that the well-known trace theorem for weighted Sobolev spaces holds true under minimal regularity assumptions on the domain. Using this result, we prove the existence of a bounded linear right inverse of the trace operator for Sobolev-Slobodeckij spaces Wps(Ω) when s-1/p is an integer.…”

Taming non-analyticities of QFT observables by Thomas W. Grimm, Giovanni Ravazzini, Mick van Vliet

“…This expectation has been recently formalized by a tameness principle: physical observables should be definable in o-minimal structures and their sharp refinements. In this work, we show that a broad class of non-analytic partition and correlation functions are tame functions in the o-minimal structure known as ℝ G $$ {\mathbb{R}}_{\mathcal{G}} $$ — the structure defining Gevrey functions. …”
