Abstract:We develop an ABP approach to Sobolev and Michael-Simon type inequalities under volume noncollapsing assumptions. The main new observation is a refinement of Brendle's contact-set argument: the ABP image contains the full geodesic ball centered at the minimum point of the Neumann potential, with radius equal to the ABP parameter. This allows one to use lower bounds for the volumes of geodesic balls, either at a fixed scale or under prescribed volume-growth assumptions, rather than positive asymptotic volume ratio. The central application is a Michael-Simon type inequality for immersed submanifolds of ambient manifolds with nonnegative sectional curvature and volume noncollapsing. The resulting inequality contains a lower-order term determined by the noncollapsing scale and applies to submanifolds with controlled mean curvature. In the intrinsic case, the same method gives an ABP proof of Varopoulos' $L^{1}$-Sobolev inequality with lower-order term, identifying the optimal constant in front of the gradient term, as well as explicit lower bounds for the isoperimetric profile in terms of lower bounds on the volumes of geodesic balls. Further geometric applications include Topping-type diameter estimates for submanifolds involving the $L^{n-1}$-norm of the mean curvature and various heat kernel and spectral estimates in the minimal case.
