Abstract
Let , where k is a nonnegative kernel increasing in x, decreasing in y, and satisfying a triangle inequality. An nth-order Opial inequality has the form
.
Such inequalities can always be simplified to nth-order reduced inequalities, where the exponent . When n = 1, the reduced inequality is a standard weighted norm inequality, and characterizing the weights is easy. We also find necessary and sufficient conditions on the weights for second-order reduced Opial inequalities to hold.
