Qualitative stability for a family of trace Sobolev inequalities

Abstract

The goal of this short note is to prove qualitative stability for a family of trace Sobolev inequalities first proven by Carlen \& Loss for $p=2$ and by Maggi and the author for $p\in (1,n)$. This answers an open problem raised in a recent paper of Fan, Li \& Zhang, and in conjunction with their local analysis, yields sharp quantitative stability for this family of inequalities when $p=2$.
