We prove that minimizers for subcritical second-order Sobolev embeddings in the unit ball are unique, positive and radially symmetric. Since the proofs of the corresponding first-order results cannot be extended to the present situation, we apply new and recently developed techniques.

Abstract

We prove that minimizers for subcritical second-order Sobolev embeddings in the unit ball are unique, positive and radially symmetric. Since the proofs of the corresponding first-order results cannot be extended to the present situation, we apply new and recently developed techniques.
