Sharp discrete Hardy constants in low dimensions

For $d\ge3$, let $\lambda_d$ denote the sharp constant in the nearest-neighbor Hardy inequality on $\mathbb Z^d$ with Euclidean inverse-square weight for functions vanishing at the origin. Recent work established that the continuous Hardy coefficient \[ C_d=\frac{(d-2)^2}{4} \] is sharp in dimensions three and four, wh...

The sharp discrete Hardy inequality on $\Z^3$

We determine the sharp constant in the nearest-neighbor Hardy inequality on $\Z^3$ with the Euclidean inverse-square weight. For every finitely supported function $u:\Z^3\to\C$, we prove \[ \sum_{x\in\Z^3}\sum_{j=1}^3 |u(x+e_j)-u(x)|^2 \geq \frac14\sum_{x\in\Z^3\setminus\{0\}} \frac{|u(x)|^2}{|x|^2}. \] The coefficient...
