Sharp Gagliardo-Nirenberg inequalities and mass transport theory. (English) Zbl 1155.35320

In the paper, the link between Gagliardo-Nirenberg inequalities and Mmass transport theory is discussed. Sharp constants and optimal functions of the Gagliardo-Nirenberg inequalities are obtained explicitly in dimension \(n=1\) by using solutions of a certain ordinary differential equation.
