Inward mollification on bounded convex domains #
This file records the geometric version of global mollification used for zero-boundary Sobolev approximation. The convolution is evaluated after an outward affine dilation. Consequently, its support is a compact set strictly inside the original bounded open convex domain.
A compactly supported smooth kernel convolved with a locally integrable field is smooth after the inward affine pullback.
The topological support of inward mollification lies strictly in the domain, provided the input field is supported in the domain closure.
Inward mollification has compact support under the bounded-domain support condition.
The literal zero extension of an H¹₀ function is supported in the
closure of its domain.
The inward mollification of the global zero extension of an H¹₀
function is globally smooth, compactly supported, and has topological support
strictly inside the original bounded open convex domain.
