Time increments of L²-continuous fields with an L² time derivative #
prop:lps-smoothing: a field u on the slab ℝ³ × (t₀, T) that is continuous
into L² on [t₀, T] and whose weak time derivative ∂ₜu is square integrable
on the slab satisfies, for every smooth compactly supported spatial test ψ,
the pairing identity ⟨u(t) - u(s), ψ⟩ = ∫ₛᵗ ⟨∂ₜu(τ), ψ⟩ dτ, and the increment
bound ‖u(t) - u(s)‖² ≤ (t - s) ∫ₛᵗ ‖∂ₜu(τ)‖² dτ.
prop:lps-smoothing: for a field continuous into L² on [t₀, T] with a
square-integrable weak time derivative on the slab, the spatial pairing of each
component with a smooth compactly supported test changes between two times by the
time integral of the paired derivative.
Duality in L²: a square-integrable function whose pairings with smooth
compactly supported tests are bounded by M times the L² norm of the test has
squared L² norm at most M² (prop:lps-smoothing).
prop:lps-smoothing: for a field continuous into L² on [t₀, T] with a
square-integrable weak time derivative on the slab, the squared L² norm of an
increment is at most the length of the time interval times the time integral of
the squared L² norm of the time derivative.
prop:lps-smoothing: for a field continuous into L² on [t₀, T] with a
square-integrable weak time derivative on the slab, almost every time of (t₀, T)
is a Lebesgue point of every spatial pairing: the forward difference quotients of the
pairing of each component with any smooth compactly supported test converge to the
pairing of the time derivative.
