Pura Appl. (in press), DOI: 10.1007/s10231-011-0220-3], we give a sharp estimate of the exponent concerning the Concentration-Compactness Principle for the embedding of the Orlicz-Sobolev space (W0Ln)-L-1 log(alpha) L(Omega) into the Orlicz space corresponding to a Young function that behaves like exp t(n/(n-1-alpha)) for large t. We also give the result for the case of the embedding into double and other multiple exponential spaces.
