Synopsis

If Ω is a bounded domain in Rn satisfying certain conditions, Ωk denotes its intersection with a k-dimensional hyperplane, 1 ≦ kn, it is shown that the embedding of the Sobolev space Ws,p(Ω), s>0, into Lqk) is of type lm if for q<p<∞. The same result is obtained for the space of Bessel potentials Ls,p(Ω). Piecewise polynomial and Fourier approximations of functions and interpolation theorems areused.
