The finite-axis lift: regularity across X = 0, the lifted scalar, the force limit #
Three of the four remaining pieces of the anisotropic zoom-in lift of eq:drift:Bn:def.
- The regularity of the lifted drift
B_nacross the axisX = 0. The Jacobian boundnorm_zoomDriftJacobian_leis off-axis only (0 < zoomLiftRadius), sincezoomLiftRadiusitself has a cone singularity atX = 0and is not differentiable there. The honest question is not aboutzoomLiftRadius, but aboutB_n's own radial partV_n(|X|, Z, τ) X/|X|. Along every ray through the axis in a single lifted radial coordinate, this part is exactlyV_nitself — not merely close to it — becauseV_n, regarded as a function of the signed Cartesian radial coordinate, is odd (apply_meridional_reflect_zero), and the odd reflection of a function through the origin is exactly what the direction cosineX/|X|builds back out of|X|. This gives a genuine two-sided derivative ofB_n's ray restriction at the axis, equal to the derivative ofV_nthere (hasDerivAt_zoomDrift_diag_ray_zero), together with a quantitative bound of the radial part byC |τ|^{-1/2}times the distance to the axis (abs_zoomDrift_apply_le_mul_zoomLiftRadius), which is Lipschitz regularity. What is not established, and is not claimed, is joint (Fréchet) differentiability of the full mapX ↦ B_n(X, Z, τ)atX = 0: that would needV_n(\cdot, Z, τ)to be a smooth function of the square of the radius, a structural fact beyond the pointwise derivative bounds proved inCIV.Zoom.FiniteAxisBounds. - The force term
G_nofeq:interior:force:scaledobeys|G_n| ≤ C λ^5 λ^{2h}, and this bound tends to zero asλ → 0⁺, the limit taken in the zoom scale. - The lifted potential vorticity
Ω_tilde(X, Z, τ) = Ω_n(|X|, Z, τ)of the paragraph beforeeq:aniso:zoom:lifted, and its finite-axis bound, transported through the lift.
The lifted equation eq:aniso:zoom:lifted itself is stated off the axis in
CIV.Zoom.FiniteLiftEquation, where the radial operator ∂_RR + 3R⁻¹∂_R is identified with the
Laplacian Δ_X of the four lifted spatial coordinates. No finite-n equation is stated across
the axis: the limit equation eq:aniso:zoom:finite:limit, in the form
IsDistributionalDriftDiffusion that lem:aniso:comparison uses, is obtained with a cutoff at
the axis (deviation D17).
(a) The regularity of the lifted drift across the axis #
V_n is odd under reflection of its radial argument: the underlying Cartesian velocity
component u_1 is odd across the meridional reflection x_1 ↦ -x_1
(apply_meridional_reflect_zero), and zoomV is u_1 composed with the affine zoom-in map.
The point of Vec 5 on the axis at height Z: the four radial coordinates vanish, and
the fifth (vertical) coordinate is Z.
Equations
- CIV.zoomAxisPoint Z = Function.update 0 4 Z
Instances For
The exact regularity across the axis: along any ray through the axis in a single lifted
radial coordinate i, the diagonal (matching) radial component of the lifted drift B_n
equals V_n itself, for every real s — not merely close to it. This is the honest
statement in place of smoothness of zoomLiftRadius, which has a cone singularity at s = 0:
the singularity of X ↦ X/|X| there is exactly cancelled by the fact that V_n, as a function
of the signed Cartesian radial coordinate, is odd (zoomV_odd), so V_n(|s|, Z, τ) · s/|s|
collapses to V_n(s, Z, τ) on both sides of s = 0, and to 0 (by zoomV_axis) at s = 0
itself.
Genuine two-sided differentiability of B_n's diagonal ray-restriction at the crossing
s = 0: zoomDrift_diag_ray_eq identifies the ray-restriction with V_n on a whole
neighbourhood of s = 0 (not merely pointwise), so its derivative at the crossing exists and
equals the derivative of V_n there, already available off the axis. This is the sharpest
statement available: it does not extend to a joint (Fréchet) derivative of the full map
X ↦ B_n(X, Z, τ) at X = 0 in every direction at once, which would need V_n(\cdot, Z, τ)
to depend smoothly on the square of its argument — a structural fact beyond the pointwise
derivative bounds proved in CIV.Zoom.FiniteAxisBounds.
The quantitative Lipschitz-to-axis bound: every radial component of the lifted drift B_n
is within C |τ|^{-1/2} times the distance to the axis, in every direction at once (not just
along coordinate rays) — this is the genuine, general-purpose "Lipschitz across X = 0"
content of the footnote to eq:drift:Bn:def. It follows from the same segment bound
abs_zoomV_div_le that supplies the diagonal entry of norm_zoomDriftJacobian_le, combined
with the direction-cosine bound abs_le_zoomLiftRadius; it holds at the axis itself, where
both sides vanish.
(d) The force term vanishes in the zoom scale #
The rescaled force term G_n of eq:interior:force:scaled: λ^5 λ^{2h} times the
potential vorticity of the force, evaluated at the zoom point — the force term of
eq:aniso:zoom:finite:equation, exactly as it enters zoomOmega_pde.
Equations
- CIV.zoomForce lam h zc f p = lam ^ 5 * lam ^ (2 * h) * CIV.potentialVorticity f (CIV.zoomPoint lam h zc p)
Instances For
|G_n| ≤ C λ^5 λ^{2h} on the preimage of the unit cylinder, uniformly in the point: the
potential vorticity of a C²-bounded, axisymmetric, C^∞ force is bounded by a constant
depending only on the force (abs_potentialVorticity_force_le), and λ^5 λ^{2h} ≥ 0 for
λ > 0.
The bound of abs_zoomForce_le tends to zero in the zoom scale, as λ → 0⁺: this is
|G_n| ≤ C M_f λ^5 δ_n → 0, the fourth of the missing pieces, since λ^5 λ^{2h} = λ^{5 + 2h}
and 5 + 2h > 0.
(b) The lifted scalar Ω_tilde #
The lifted potential vorticity Ω_tilde(X, Z, τ) = Ω_n(|X|, Z, τ) of the paragraph before
eq:aniso:zoom:lifted: zoomOmega composed with the lift zoomLiftPoint, a function of the
lifted spatial point (X, Z) ∈ Vec 5 and the rescaled time τ.
Equations
- CIV.zoomOmegaLift lam h zc u q = CIV.zoomOmega lam h zc u (CIV.zoomLiftPoint q)
Instances For
The finite-axis bound eq:aniso:zoom:finite:bound for the lifted scalar, on and off the
axis: abs_zoomOmega_le_of_mem transported through the lift.
The uniform-in-n bound 2C for τ ≤ -1, the form the compactness argument of
eq:aniso:zoom:finite:compactness actually uses: abs_zoomOmega_le_two_mul_const transported
through the lift.
