With the help of a radially invariant vector field, we derive inequalities of the Hardy kind, with no boundary terms, for W 1,p functions on bounded star domains. Our results are not obtainable from the classical inequalities for W1,p functions. Unlike in W1,p, our inequalities admit maximizers that we describe explicitly.
