Abstract
In this paper, we establish sharp subcritical and critical second-order Adams inequalities in Lorentz–Sobolev spaces. We also prove the subcritical and critical Adams inequalities are actually equivalent and our results extend existing ones in Tang (Potential Anal 53(1):297–314, 2020) to second order.
