Smooth-data calculus for the forced heat response #
For a smooth compactly supported tensor source supported in positive times,
the forced heat response and its first and second spatial derivatives and its
time derivative decay like |x|^{-3} uniformly in time; the response solves
the heat equation with divergence source and vanishes at time zero. These are
the facts used by the energy estimates of lem:pv-stokes.
A continuous compactly supported space-time function is bounded by a
multiple of (1 + |x|)^{-3}.
A finite family of functions with (1 + |x|)^{-3} decay has a common
decay constant.

For a smooth compactly supported tensor, the forced heat response is the
causal heat potential of vecTimeDiv.
The divergence of a compactly supported smooth tensor has compact support.
The response causalHeatConv (vecTimeDiv g i), its first and second
spatial derivatives, its time derivative, and the tensor with its spatial
derivatives all decay like (1 + |x|)^{-3} with a common constant.
