Time cutoffs of whole-space heat solutions #
The whole-space form of lem:local-heat-gain, used in prop:lps-smoothing,
multiplies a solution of ∂ₜ z - Δ z = G on ℝ³ × I by a smooth cutoff
c(t) depending on time only. Spatial derivatives commute with the cutoff, so
a space-time derivative family D of z gives the family c D of c z, and
c z solves ∂ₜ (c z) - Δ (c z) = c G + c' z on ℝ³ × I. The squared norms
are controlled by the bounds for c and c'.
A function of time alone has vanishing spatial derivatives.
The distributional spatial derivative of c(t) f is c(t) ∂_j f.
A bounded continuous function of time keeps square integrability.
Multiplication by a smooth bounded function of time maps a space-time derivative family to a space-time derivative family.
lem:local-heat-gain on the whole space, first step: if ∂ₜ z - Δ z = G
on ℝ³ × I and c is a smooth function of time, then
∂ₜ (c z) - Δ (c z) = c G + c' z on ℝ³ × I.
The square integral of c(t) f with |c| ≤ 1 is at most that of f.
The square integral of c(t) g + d(t) f with |c| ≤ 1 and |d| ≤ L is at
most 2 ‖g‖² + 2 L² ‖f‖².
