Abstract

In this note, we obtain a simpler expression for the constant number given by Costin–Maz’ya on the sharp Hardy–Leray inequality for a class of solenoidal (namely divergence-free) vector fields, with respect to any radial power-weighted measure. The dependence of the constant on the weight exponent will be clear.
