Leray–Hopf clauses from strong L² continuity #
The last step of prop:pv-local-solution: a finite-energy weak solution with
pressure in space-time L⁵ on ℝ³ × (0, T) whose time slices are square
integrable and continuous into L² on [0, T], with the datum as its slice at
t = 0, is a Leray–Hopf solution. The energy equality, which holds at almost
every time in the L⁵ class, extends to every time by continuity of both sides;
it gives the energy inequality of def:leray-hopf, and the strong L²
continuity gives the weak continuity and the strong initial trace.
A component of a square-integrable vector field has at most its norm.
The L² pairing of vector fields is bounded by three times the product of
their (sup-norm) L² norms.
Strong L² continuity gives continuity of the pairing with every square
integrable field.
Strong L² continuity gives continuity of the squared L² norm.
The dissipation integral over ℝ³ × (0, t) is continuous in t ∈ [0, T].
