Real analyticity from factorial bounds on the derivatives #
The quantitative analyticity of eq:analytic:slice:force and eq:analytic:interior:velocity
is a family of bounds ‖∂^α u‖ ≤ M a^{-|α|} |α|! on the derivatives. The identity theorem, on
the other hand, is stated for Mathlib's AnalyticOnNhd. This file supplies the missing
implication: a smooth function whose iterated derivatives obey ‖D^n f‖ ≤ C K^n n! on a ball
is real analytic there.
The proof is the classical one. Taylor's formula with the integral remainder,
map_add_eq_sum_add_integral_iteratedFDeriv, writes the difference between f (x + y) and the
n-th Taylor polynomial as an integral over the segment [x, x + y]; the factorial bound makes
that remainder at most C (n + 1) (K‖y‖)^{n + 1}, which tends to 0 as soon as K‖y‖ < 1.
The same bound makes the Taylor series absolutely convergent on that ball, so its sum is
f (x + y), which is a power series expansion of f at x.
Mathlib has the converse implication (AnalyticAt gives Cauchy estimates on the iterated
derivatives) but not this direction, so the criterion is proved here from Taylor's formula.
The last section restricts a space-time field to one time slice, which is the form in which the criterion is applied to the velocity.
The Taylor remainder of order n at x in the direction y, estimated from factorial
bounds on the iterated derivatives along the segment from x to x + y.
Real analyticity from factorial bounds on the iterated derivatives. A smooth function
whose iterated derivatives satisfy ‖D^n f‖ ≤ C K^n n! on a ball around x is real analytic
at x: its Taylor series at x converges to it on the ball of radius min r K⁻¹.
The same criterion on an open set, with one pair of constants for the whole set.
Analyticity on a ball from locally uniform factorial bounds. This is the shape in which
the quantitative analyticity eq:analytic:interior:velocity is available: on every ball
B(R') compactly contained in B(R) the iterated derivatives obey a factorial bound, with
constants allowed to degenerate as R' ↑ R. The conclusion is analyticity on all of B(R).
One component of one time slice of a field that is smooth on a space-time cylinder is smooth on the spatial ball.
