Abstract
We introduce weighted Riesz bounded variation spaces defined on an open subset of $n$-dimensional Euclidean space and use them to characterize weighted Sobolev spaces when the weight belongs to the Muckenhoupt class. As an application, using Rubio de Francia’s extrapolation theory, we obtain a similar characterization of variable exponent Sobolev spaces via variable exponent Riesz bounded variation spaces.
