Abstract

The real interpolation spaces between L^p(ℝⁿ) and H^t,p(ℝⁿ) (resp. H^t,p(ℝⁿ)), t>0, are characterized in terms of fractional moduli of smoothness, and the underlying seminorms are shown to be " the correct" fractional generalization of the classical Gagliardo seminorms. This is confirmed by the fact that, using the new spaces combined with interpolation and extrapolation methods, we are able to extend the Bourgain-Brezis-Mironescu-Maz'ya-Shaposhnikova limit formulae, as well as the Bourgain-Brezis-Mironescu convergence theorem, to fractional Sobolev spaces. On the other hand, we disprove a conjecture of \citeBraz suggesting fractional convergence results given in terms of classical Gagliardo seminorms. We also solve a problem proposed in \citeBraz concerning sharp forms of the fractional Sobolev embedding.
