``Re: motivation for Sobolev conjugate exponent?'' by mathforever on 2005-02-23 15:15:57
Thanks for reply ;)!

this is motivation for "1/p+1/q=1", but in the entry there is another object:

p\in[1,n]
q is called "Sobolev conjugate" to p if
1/q-1/p=1/n

and this is quite unclear (at least for me) from where it comes???
