Moser-Trudinger inequality was generalised by Calanchi-Ruf to the following version: If

$ \beta \in [0,1) $

and

$ w_0(x) = |\log |x||^{\beta(n-1)} $

or

$ \left( \log \frac{e}{|x|}\right)^{\beta(n-1)} $

then

$ \sup\limits_{\int_B | \nabla u|^nw_0 \leq 1 , u \in W_{0,rad}^{1,n}(w_0,B)} \;\; \int_B \exp\left(\alpha |u|^{\frac{n}{(n-1)(1-\beta)}} \;\;\; \right) dx < \infty $

if and only if

$ \alpha \leq \alpha_\beta = n\left[\omega_{n-1}^{\frac{1}{n-1}}(1-\beta) \right]^{\frac{1}{1-\beta}} $

where

$ \omega_{n-1} $

denotes the surface measure of the unit sphere in

$ \mathbb {R}^n $

. The primary goal of this work is to address the issue of existence of extremal function for the above inequality. A non-existence (of extremal function) type result is also discussed, for the usual Moser-Trudinger functional.

Keywords: Moser Trudinger embedding, extremal function.
