Improved magnetic Hardy inequality with a critical remainder

Let d2d\geq 2, let A\nabla_A denote the magnetic gradient, let hA,ph_{A,p} be the corresponding magnetic pp-Laplacian form domain, and let μp,d\mu_{p,d} be the Hardy constant. Let BB be a smooth closed magnetic field with B0B\neq 0, and let AA satisfy dA=BdA=B. Improved magnetic Hardy conjecture. For 2p<d2\leq p<d, there exists a constant cB,p,d>0c_{B,p,d}>0 such that

RdAupdxμp,dRdupxpdxcB,p,dRdA(uxdpp)pxpddx,\int_{\mathbb{R}^d}|\nabla_Au|^p\,dx-\mu_{p,d}\int_{\mathbb{R}^d}\frac{|u|^p}{|x|^p}\,dx\geq c_{B,p,d}\int_{\mathbb{R}^d}\left|\nabla_A\left(u|x|^{\frac{d-p}{p}}\right)\right|^p|x|^{p-d}\,dx,

for all uD(hA,p)u\in\mathcal{D}(h_{A,p}). The corresponding non-magnetic inequality is known, while the magnetic extension is proposed to show that a nontrivial magnetic field makes the critical operator subcritical; its status is not resolved in the supplied text.
