Some new characterizations of the class of positive measures γ on$R$^{$n$}such that$H$_{$p$}^{$l$}∉L_{$p$}(γ) are given where$H$_{$p$}^{$l$}(1<$p$<∞ 0<$l$∞) is the space of Bessel potentials This imbed ding as well as the corresponding trace inequality $$||J_l u||_{L_p (\gamma )} \leqslant C||u||_{L_p } $$ for Bessel potentials$J$_{$l$}=(1-Δ)^{-1/2}is shown to be equivalent to one of the following conditions(a)$J$_{$l$}($J$_{$l$γ})^{$p$}≤$CJ$_{$lγ$}a e(b)$M$_{$l$}($M$_{$l$γ})^{$p’$}≤$CM$_{$lγ$}a e(c)For all compact subsets$E$of$R$^{$n$} $$\int_E {(J_{l\gamma } )^p dx} \leqslant C{\text{ }}cap (E H_p^l )$$ where 1/$p$+1/$p'$=1$M$_{$l$}is the fractional maximal operator and cap ($H$_{$p$}^{$l$}) is the Bessel capacity In particular it is shown that the trace inequality for a positive measure \gg holds if and only if it holds for the measure$(J$_{$l\gg$})^{$p'$}$dx$Similar results are proved for the Riesz potentials$I$_{$l$γ}=|$x$|^{$l-n$}* γ

We introduce a model concerning radiational gaseous stars and establish the existence theory of stationary solutions to the free boundary problem of hydrostatic equations describing the radiative equilibrium. We also establish in the spherically symmetric case the local well-posedness of the moving boundary problem of the corresponding Navier--Stokes--Fourier--Poisson system and construct a priori estimates of strong and classical solutions. Our results explore the vacuum behavior of density and temperature near the free boundary for the equilibrium and capture such degeneracy in the evolutionary problem.

Omicron, the latest SARS-CoV-2 Variant of Concern (VOC), first appeared in Africa in November 2021. At present, the question of whether a new VOC will out-compete the currently predominant variant is important for governments seeking to determine if current surveillance strategies and responses are appropriate and reasonable. Based on both virus genomes and daily-confirmed cases, we compare the additive differences in growth rates and reproductive numbers (R_0) between VOCs and their predominant variants through a Bayesian framework and phylo-dynamics analysis. Faced with different variants, we evaluate the effects of current policies and vaccinations against VOCs and predominant variants. The model also predicts the date on which a VOC may become dominant based on simulation and real data in the early stage. The results suggest that the overall additive difference in growth rates of B.1.617.2 and predominant variants was 0.44 (95% confidence interval, 95% CI: −0.38, 1.25) in February 2021, and that the VOC had a relatively high R_0. The additive difference in the growth rate of BA.1 in the United Kingdom was 6.82 times the difference between Delta and Alpha, and the model successfully predicted the dominating process of Alpha, Delta and Omicron. Current vaccination strategies remain similarly effective against Delta compared to the previous variants. Our model proposes a reliable Bayesian framework to predict the spread trends of VOCs based on early-stage data, and evaluates the effects of public health policies, which may help us better prepare for the upcoming Omicron variant, which is now spreading at an unprecedented speed.
