Norm comparisons at a fixed time #
The supremum-norm L² norms of the gradient and Hessian tensors are bounded by
the square roots of the corresponding integrated sums of squares, and the
Hessian energy equals the Laplacian energy at every time slice on which the
second derivatives form a Sobolev family (lem:lps-H1-estimate).
The L² norm of a tensor field of the first-derivative type is bounded by
the square root of the integrated sum of squares of its entries.
The integrated squared supremum norm of a gradient tensor is bounded by the integrated sum of squares of its entries.
The L² norm of a second-derivative tensor field is bounded by the square
root of the integrated sum of squares of its entries.
At a time slice where the second derivatives form a Sobolev family, the
Hessian energy equals the Laplacian energy (lem:lps-H1-estimate).
