We study several trace operators and spaces that are related to the bi-Laplacian. They are motivated by the development of ultraweak formulations for the bi-Laplace equation with homogeneous Dirichlet condition, but are also relevant to describe conformity of mixed approximations. Our aim is to have well-posed (ultraweak) formulations that assume low regularity, under the condition of an $L_2$ right-hand side function. We pursue two ways of defining traces and corresponding integration-by-parts formulas. In one case one obtains a non-closed space. This can be fixed by switching to the Kirchhoff-Love traces from [Fuhrer, Heuer, Niemi, An ultraweak formulation of the Kirchhoff-Love plate bending model and DPG approximation, Math. Comp., 88 (2019)]. Using different combinations of trace operators we obtain two well-posed formulations. For both of them we report on numerical experiments with the DPG method and optimal test functions. In this paper we consider two and three space dimensions. However, with the exception of a given counterexample in an appendix (related to the non-closedness of a trace space), our analysis applies to any space dimension larger than or equal to two.

Let $L_g$ be the subcritical GJMS operator on an even-dimensional compact manifold $(X, g)$ and consider the zeta-regularized trace $mathrm{Tr}_zeta(L_g^{-1})$ of its inverse. We show that if $ker L_g = 0$, then the supremum of this quantity, taken over all metrics $g$ of fixed volume in the conformal class, is always greater than or equal to the corresponding quantity on the standard sphere. Moreover, we show that in the case that it is strictly larger, the supremum is attained by a metric of constant mass. Using positive mass theorems, we give some geometric conditions for this to happen.
Let $Omegasubsetmathbb{R}^ u$, $ uge 2$, be a $C^{1,1}$ domain whose boundary $partialOmega$ is either compact or behaves suitably at infinity. For $pin(1,infty)$ and $alpha>0$, define [ Lambda(Omega,p,alpha):=inf_{substack{uin W^{1,p}(Omega) u otequiv 0}}dfrac{displaystyle int_Omega | abla u|^p mathrm{d} x - alphadisplaystyleint_{partialOmega} |u|^pmathrm{d}sigma}{displaystyleint_Omega |u|^pmathrm{d} x}, ] where $mathrm{d}sigma$ is the surface measure on $partialOmega$. We show the asymptotics [ Lambda(Omega,p,alpha)=-(p-1)alpha^{frac{p}{p-1}} - ( u-1)H_mathrm{max}, alpha + o(alpha), quad alphato+infty, ] where $H_mathrm{max}$ is the maximum mean curvature of $partialOmega$. The asymptotic behavior of the associated minimizers is discussed as well. The estimate is then applied to the study of the best constant in a boundary trace theorem for expanding domains, to the norm estimate for extension operators and to related isoperimetric inequalities.
In this paper, we consider the trace theorem for modulation spaces, alpha modulation spaces and Besov spaces. For the modulation space, we obtain the sharp results.
We study the heat trace for both the drifting Laplacian as well as Schrodinger operators on compact Riemannian manifolds. In the case of a finite regularity potential or weight function, we prove the existence of a partial (six term) asymptotic expansion of the heat trace for small times as well as a suitable remainder estimate. We also demonstrate that the more precise asymptotic behavior of the remainder is determined by and conversely distinguishes higher (Sobolev) regularity on the potential or weight function. In the case of a smooth weight function, we determine the full asymptotic expansion of the heat trace for the drifting Laplacian for small times. We then use the heat trace to study the asymptotics of the eigenvalue counting function. In both cases the Weyl law coincides with the Weyl law for the Riemannian manifold with the standard Laplace-Beltrami operator. We conclude by demonstrating isospectrality results for the drifting Laplacian on compact manifolds.
We identify explicitly the fractional power spaces for the $L^2$ Dirichlet Laplacian and Dirichlet Stokes operators using the theory of real interpolation. The results are not new, but we hope that our arguments are relatively accessible.
