Abstract Let Ω be a bounded, smooth domain of R N , N ≥ 1 . For each p > N we study the optimal function s = s p in the pointwise inequality | v ( x ) | ≤ s ( x ) ‖ ∇ v ‖ L p ( Ω ) , ∀ ( x , v ) ∈ Ω ‾ × W 0 1 , p ( Ω ) . We show that s p ∈ C 0 0 , 1 − ( N / p ) ( Ω ‾ ) and that s p converges pointwise to the distance function to the boundary, as p → ∞ . Moreover, we prove that if Ω is convex, then s p is concave and has a unique maximum point.
