Abstrakt: We study the sharp constant for the embedding of W^{1,p}_0(\Omega) into L^q(\Omega), in the case 2p and q is sufficiently close to p, extremal functions attaining the sharp constant are unique, up to a multiplicative constant. This in turn gives the uniqueness of solutions with minimal energy to the Lane-Emden equation, with super-homogeneous right-hand side. The result is achieved by suitably adapting a linearization argument due to C.-S. Lin. We rely on some fine estimates for solutions of p-Laplace–type equations by L. Damascelli and B. Sciunzi.
