Circulation bounds from pointwise and annulus bounds #

The circulation Γ = x₁ u₂ − x₂ u₁ of a vector field u on a parabolic point z satisfies a plain bound 2RM whenever |u| ≤ M on a ball of radius R. On a sub‑annulus of the regular annulus where only the order‑0 derivative is bounded, the circulation is controlled by 2 R⋆ M for any R⋆ < Rₚ.

The circulation Γ = x₁ u₂ − x₂ u₁ of a field bounded by M on a ball of radius R is itself bounded by 2RM there.

On a sub‑annulus Rm < |x| < R⋆ of the regular annulus of lem:aniso:annulus, the circulation of u is bounded, using only the order‑0 case of the annulus's derivative bound.

The circulation bound of the previous theorem, quantified over every radius R⋆ ∈ Ioo Rm Rp.

The conclusion is confined to the open sub-annulus Rm < |x| < R⋆. It asserts nothing at |x| ≤ Rm, hence nothing on the symmetry axis or on the inner ball, so it is weaker than the circulation clause of lem:aniso:annulus, which bounds Γ on the whole ball B(R⋆). The whole-ball statement is CIV.forall_Rstar_exists_circulation_bound_ball_of_annulus_bound; it needs the maximum principle to fill in the inner ball and does not follow from the algebraic bound used here.
