Abstract

We study bounded variation (BV) and fractional Sobolev functional spaces, $L^p$ Besov critical exponents and isoperimetric and Sobolev inequalities associated with fractional Laplacians on metric measure spaces. The main tool is the theory of heat semigroup based Besov classes in Dirichlet Metric Measure Spaces that was introduced by the authors in previous works.

The authors dedicate this paper to the memory of Ka-Sing Lau, whose important contributionsto the general theory of Markov processes and Dirichlet forms on fractals and metricmeasure spaces, especially in the papers [43, 44, 48, 49], influenced the development of thiswork.
