C¹ extraction on the closed half-plane #
A sequence of smooth functions on ℝ × ℝ whose values, gradients and second derivatives are
bounded by one constant L on each of the squares [0, j+1] × [-(j+1), j+1] — for all large
n, the threshold being allowed to depend on the square — has a subsequence converging, together
with its gradient, uniformly on every one of those squares. The limit is bounded by L on the
closed half-plane {R ≥ 0} and is differentiable at every point of the open half-plane
{R > 0}, with derivative the limit of the gradients.
This is C¹ compactness on compact subsets of the closed half-plane, so the limit and the
convergence reach the axis {R = 0}; only the identification of the limit of the gradients with
a derivative is restricted to the open half-plane, where the squares have interior points.
The extraction on one square is CIV.exists_subseq_tendstoUniformlyOn_c1; the passage from one
square to all of them at once is the diagonal extraction
CIV.exists_subseq_tendstoUniformlyOn_forall_of_subseq, applied to the pair
(V_n, ∇V_n) so that the function and its gradient are extracted along a single subsequence.
The whole statement is at a fixed value of any remaining parameter: no time variable occurs, and no equicontinuity in a parameter is claimed or used.
Uniform convergence into a product #
Uniform convergence of two families into pseudometric spaces gives uniform convergence of the pair, along the same filter.
The exhausting squares of the closed half-plane #
The closed squares [0, j+1] × [-(j+1), j+1], which exhaust the closed half-plane
{p : ℝ × ℝ | 0 ≤ p.1} and whose interiors exhaust the open half-plane {0 < p.1}.
Instances For
Every point of the closed half-plane lies in one of the squares.
Every point of the open half-plane lies in the interior of one of the squares.
The extraction #
C¹ compactness on the closed half-plane: from a sequence of smooth functions whose value,
gradient and second derivative are bounded by L on each square [0, j+1] × [-(j+1), j+1] for
all large n, one subsequence converges together with its gradient, uniformly on every square.
The limit obeys the same bound on the closed half-plane, its gradient limit is continuous on each
square, and at every point of the open half-plane the limit is differentiable with derivative the
limit of the gradients.
A subsequence of a uniformly convergent sequence converges uniformly to the same limit.
