Whole-space Sobolev control for smoothing #
The local smooth Sobolev inequality gives an H² → L∞ bound for smooth
fields with square-integrable derivatives on all of ℝ³. The source
uses this bound when estimating the high-order transport tensor.
Applying two ordered derivative words in sequence is the derivative indexed by their concatenation (eq:lps-Hm-energy).
The whole-space H² norm bounds a smooth scalar field uniformly, without a compact-support assumption (eq:lps-Hm-energy).
An ordered derivative at least two orders below m is uniformly
bounded by the full H^m energy (eq:lps-Hm-energy).
A lower derivative times any derivative through order m has a
square-integrable product, controlled by the two ordered Sobolev energies
(eq:lps-Hm-energy).
Each ordered derivative contributes a nonnegative summand to the
whole H^m energy (eq:lps-Hm-energy).
At order at least three, each Leibniz split of total degree at most
m has a factor with at least two unused derivatives. Its product is
therefore controlled by the two H^m energies (eq:lps-Hm-energy).
At order two, the only Leibniz split outside the lower-derivative
bound assigns one derivative to each factor. A quantitative bound for
that middle split completes the termwise estimate
(eq:lps-Hm-energy).
