Embeddings of Decomposition Spaces into Sobolev and BV Spaces

In the present paper, we investigate whether an embedding of a decomposition space $\mathcal{D}\left(\mathcal{Q},L^{p},Y\right)$ into a given Sobolev space $W^{k,q}(\mathbb{R}^{d})$ exists. As special cases, this includes embeddings into Sobolev spaces of (homogeneous and inhomogeneous) Besov spaces, ($α$)-modulation spaces, shearlet smoothness spaces and also of a large class of wavelet coorbit spaces, in particular of shearlet-type coorbit spaces. Precisely, we will show that under extremely mild assumptions on the covering $\mathcal{Q}=\left(Q_{i}\right)_{i\in I}$, we have $\mathcal{D}\left(\mathcal{Q},L^{p},Y\right)\hookrightarrow W^{k,q}(\mathbb{R}^{d})$ as soon as $p\leq q$ and $Y\hookrightarrow\ell_{u^{\left(k,p,q\right)}}^{q^{\triangledown}}\left(I\right)$ hold. Here, $q^{\triangledown}=\min\left\{ q,q'\right\}$ and the weight $u^{\left(k,p,q\right)}$ can be easily computed, only based on the covering $\mathcal{Q}$ and on the parameters $k,p,q$. Conversely, a necessary condition for existence of the embedding is that $p\leq q$ and $Y\cap\ell_{0}\left(I\right)\hookrightarrow\ell_{u^{\left(k,p,q\right)}}^{q}\left(I\right)$ hold, where $\ell_{0}\left(I\right)$ denotes the space of finitely supported sequences on $I$. All in all, for the range $q \in (0,2]\cup\{\infty\}$, we obtain a complete characterization of existence of the embedding in terms of readily verifiable criteria. We can also completely characterize existence of an embedding of a decomposition space into a BV space.
