Musielak−Orlicz−Sobolev spaces on arbitrary metrique space

In this article we define Musielak−Orlicz−Sobolev spaces on arbitrary metric spaces with finite diameter and equipped with finite, positive Borel regular outer measure. We employ a Hajlasz definition, which uses a pointwise maximal inequality. We prove that these spaces are Banach, that the Poincaré inequality holds, and that the Lipschitz functions are dense. We develop a capacity theory based on these spaces. We study basic properties of capacity and several convergence results. As an application, we prove that each Musielak−Orlicz−Sobolev function has a quasi-continuous representative.
