Abstract
In this article, we give a simple proof of the result due to Lin and Wang ensuring the foliated Schwarz symmetry of the extremal functions for the Caffarelli-Kohn-Nirenberg inequalities. This new proof uses a direct and powerful method due to Bartsch, Weth and Willem using polarizations. (C) 2008 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
