Abstract This paper addresses the maximum principle for uniform, parabolic second-order linear differential operators. Specifically, if u C 2 (D) satisfies the parabolic, uniform differential inequality L[u] 0 in the cylinder D = Ω [a, b] R N+1 and there exists (x 0, t 0 ) D, such that u(x 0, t 0 ) 0 and M = u(x 0, t 0 ) u(x, t) for all (x, t) D then u(x, t) u(x 0, t 0 ) = M = a constant for all (x, t) in the region D bounded by Ω [a, t 0 ], where Ω R N bounded domain. Mathematics Subject Classification: 58J10, 58J20, 35Bxx, 35Dxx, 35R30, 35R35, 58J35 Keywords: Operator uniformly parabolic; mximum principle 1 Introduction In elementary calculus courses, it is shown that if a function u C 2 (Ω) satisfies inequality u > 0 in an interval Ω = [a, b], then u attains its maximum at one of the interval s ends. The principle of the maximum represents a generalization of such a fact. In particular, as shown in [2] harmonic functions in a domain Ω R N cannot attain a maximum within Ω unless they are constant, that is, if u 0 in a domain Ω and there exists x 0 Ω such that u(x 0 ) = M = max u. Then u u(x 0 ) = M= a constant in Ω. The PDE that models the Ω heat flow over a thin rod, of length l, made of a homogeneous material is
2 1186 Humberto Serrano L[u] u xx u t = f(x, t), where u = u(x, t) represents the rod s temperature at point x and instant t, and f is the heat dissipation rate of the rod. The maximum principle for the heat equation asserts that if u C 1 ([0, l] [0, T ]), l > 0, T > 0 and there exist partial derivatives u t, u x, u xx, and such derivatives are continuous in the rectangle R = [0, l] [0, T ], then the maximum value of u over clausure R should occur on one of the three sides B, S 1, S 2, where B = {(x, 0) : 0 x l}, S 1 = {(0, t) : 0 t T }, S 2 = {(l, t) : 0 t T } under the condition that L[u] u xx u t 0 in (0, l) (0, T ). Generally, u cannot attain a local maximum if L[u] u u t > 0 because if u has a local maximum at an interior point within the cylinder D then, at such a point u 0 and u t = 0. If L[u] u u t 0 the maximum principle asserts that the maximum of u within the clausure of D D should occur on the boundary of the cylinder D, that is, on Ω {0} or else Ω [0, T ]. In [2] it is shown that if Ω R N, u C 2 (Ω) C(Ω) satisfies L[u](x) N N a ij(x)u xi x j + N b i(x)u xi + c(x)u 0 in a domain Ω where L is uniformly elliptical, the coefficients of L are uniformly bounded continuous functions, c(x, t) 0 and a ij (x) a ji (x) in Ω for all 1 i, j N, and there exists x 0 Ω, such that 0 < M = u(x 0 ) u(x) for all x Ω, then u(x) u(x 0 ) = M= a constant in Ω. Hereinafter, Ω represents a bounded domain of R N, for N being a positive integer, a < b, I = (a, b), D = Ω I. The second order differential operator given by L[u] ( N N a ij (x, t) 2 u + N ) b i (x, t) u + c(x, t)u x i u t is considered for all (x, t) D as well as for all u C 2 (D), where the coefficients of (1) are functions defined in the cylinder D, for 1 i, j N. The operator (1) is called parabolic in (x, t) = (x 1, x 2,..., x N, t) if, for every t fixed, the operator consisting of the first terms of the sum is elliptic in (x, t), this is to say that (1) is parabolic if there exists a constant m > 0 with the following property: for all column vectors ξ = (ξ 1, ξ 2,..., ξ N ) T 0 the following inequality holds: N N a ij (x, t)ξ i ξ j m (1) N ξi 2. (2) The operator (1) is uniformly parabolic in D (see [4]) if (2) holds for the same m > 0 for all (x, t) D = Ω (a, b). Here it is assumed that the operator (1) is uniformly parabolic in D, the coefficients of (1) are continuous functions in D, c(x, t) 0 y a ij (x, t) a ji (x, t) within D for all 1 i, j N. The following section shows the maximum principle for the parabolic case, analogous to the elliptical case [2]. The proof presented herein makes use of a
3 Remarks on the maximum principle for parabolic-type PDEs 1187 slight variation with respect to that presented in [4] and also to the method used by Hopf applied to elliptical-type operators (see [2]) Before listing and proving the maximum principle, an approximation theorem for such a principle is presented. This theorem is also known as the strong maximum principle (see [2] and [4]) Theorem 1 Suppose u C 2,1 (D), L[u] 0 in D, where L is the operator defined in (1) and there exists (x 0, t 0 ) D such that u(x 0, t 0 ) = M u(x, t) for all (x, t) D and u(x 0, t 0 ) > 0 then u u(x 0, t 0 ) = M = a constant in Ω [a, t 0 ] In proving this theorem, four lemmas will be used. The first Lemma asserts that a function u C 2 (D) that satisfies the strict differential inequality L[u] > 0 in a domain D cannot attain a positive maximum in D. Lemma 1 If L[u] > 0 in D then u cannot attain a positive maximum in D Proof. Suppose that u attains a positive maximum in P 0 = (x 0, t 0 ) D. In this case, by using an appropriate change of variable (see [2]), it can be proved that N N a ij (x 0, t 0 ) 2 u (x 0, t 0 ) 0 (3) Furthermore, since u(p 0 ) is a maximum in D, the first partial derivatives of u in (x 0, t 0 ) are zero, that is u x i (x 0, t 0 ) = 0, u(x 0, t 0 ) > 0 and c(x 0, t 0 ) 0 and due to (3) (4) then L[u](x 0, t 0 ) = N N u t (x 0, t 0 ) = 0 (4) a ij (x 0, t 0 ) 2 u (x 0, t 0 ) + c(x 0, t 0 )u(x 0, t 0 ) 0. (5) This contradiction proves the Lemma. The following Lemma asserts that if the maximum of u in D is M > 0 and u < M within an appropriate ellipsoid E D, and u = M at a unique point on the boundary of E then the hyper-plane tangent to E, at such a point, is parallel the the x axis, that is, from a geometrical view-point, the maximum of u should be located at either the north pole or the south pole of E. Lemma 2 If u C 2,1 (D), L[u] 0 in D, u has a positive maximum M in D, (x 1, x 2,..., x N, t ) D, and there exist λ i > 0, i = 0, 1,..., N, R > 0 such that, the solid ellipsoid given by E = {(x 1, x 2,..., x N, t) : N i=0 λ i(x i x i ) 2 + λ 0 (t t ) 2 R 2 } D, u < M within E, and there exists ( x, t) E such that u( x, t) = M, then x = x.
4 1188 Humberto Serrano Proof. Suppose that x x. It can be assumed that P = ( x, t) is the unique point in E such that u( P ) = M. Let us construct 0 < r < x x such that the closed ball B r ( P ) D. Let C = B r ( P ), C 1 = C E, C 2 = C C 1. Since C 1 is a compact set, there exist δ > 0( such[ that u < M δ in C 1. Let h(x, t) be N ]) the following function h(x, t) = exp α i=0 λ i(x i x i ) 2 + λ 0 (t t ) 2 exp { αr 2 }, where α > 0 is a constant that will be determined as convenient. By definition h > 0 within E, h = 0 in E, h < 0 outside E. Using a simple calculation it is known that: L[h](x, t) = ( N N a ij (x, t) 2 h + ( [ N ]) N = exp α λ i (x i x i ) 2 + λ 0 (t t ) 2 {4α 2 i=0 [ N 2α a ii λ i + N ) b i (x, t) h + c(x, t)h h x i t N a ij λ i λ j (x i x i )(x j x j) ] N b i λ i (x i x i ) λ 0 (t t ) + c} c exp( αr 2 ) (6) Since L is uniformly parabolic in D, by (2), there exists m > 0 such that N N a ij λ i λ j (x i x i )(x j x j) m N λ 2 i (x i x i ) 2 (7) Also, for (x, t) B r ( P ), it can be stated that x x x x + x x, then x x x x x x > x x r > 0, so for sufficiently large α, L[h] > 0 for all (x, t) B r ( P ). Let us define function v(x, t) = u(x, t)+ɛh(x, t) in B r ( P ), where ɛ > 0. Since u < M δ for (x, t) C 1, ɛ > 0 can be chosen sufficiently small ɛ < δ/h such that v < M in C 1. Also, since h < 0 and u M in C 2, then v < M in C 2 and therefore v < M over the entire bound C = B r ( P ); furthermore, v( P ) = u( P ) + ɛh( P ) = M. Due to the continuity of v and the compactness of B then v has a positive maximum within B r ( P ); additionally, L[v] = L[u] + ɛl[h] > 0 in B r ( P ). This fact contradicts the Lemma 1 The following shows that if L[u] 0 in D and u has a positive maximum M at point (x 0, t 0 ) D then u M on the copy of Ω on the hyper-plane t = t 0 denoted as Ω {t 0 }, where a t 0 b. Lemma 3 If L[u] 0 in D and u has a positive maximum at point P 0 = (x 0, t 0 ) D, then u u(p 0 ) = M = a constant in Ω {t 0 } Proof. Suppose u(p 0 ) = M > 0 and there exists a point P 1 = (x 1, t 0 ) Ω {t 0 } such that u(p 1 ) < u(p 0 ) = M. Since Ω is a connected set, there exists
5 Remarks on the maximum principle for parabolic-type PDEs 1189 a continuous function γ : [0, 1] Ω {t 0 } such that γ(0) = P 1, γ(1) = P 0. Let G = {s [0, 1] : u(γ(s)) < M}; since G is bounded, there exists s (0, 1) such that s = sup G, P = γ(s ), that is P = (x, t 0 ) γ([0, 1]) such that u(p ) = u(p 0 ) = M, u(γ(s)) < u(p 0 ) for all 0 s < s. Over γ([0, 1]) let us take a point P = ( x, t 0 ) between P 1 and P such that dist( P, P ) < d/2, where 0 < d < dist(γ([0, 1]), Ω t 0 ). Since u( P ) < u(p ), there exists ɛ > 0 such that u(p ) < u(p ) for all P within the segment σ = { x} [t 0 ɛ, t 0 + ɛ]. Now consider the family of ellipsoids E λ : x x 2 + λ(t t 0 ) 2 λɛ 2. It can be easily observed that the ends of σ are located over E λ and that E λ approximates σ as λ tends to zero. As a result, there exists λ = λ > 0 with the following properties: u(p ) < u(p 0 ) for all P within E λ and there exists a point Q = (y, t) E λ such that u(q) = u(p 0 ). Since u(p ) < u(p ) for all P σ, Q is not in σ, that is y x. The following Lemma asserts that if L[u] 0 in D and there exists (x 0, t 0 ) such that u(x 0, t 0 ) = M u(x, t) for all (x, t) in a closed rectangle S D, (x 0, t 0 ) S and M > 0, then u u(x 0, t 0 ) = M = a constant in S Lemma 4 Suppose (x 0, t 0 ) = (x 01, x 02,..., x 0N, t 0 ) D, a 0, a 1,..., a N are positive, real numbers and the rectangle S = {(x 1, x 2,..., x N, t) R N+1 : x 0i a i x i x 0i +a i, t 0 a 0 t t 0 +a 0, i = 1, 2,, N} D. Si L[u] 0 in D and u(x 0, t 0 ) = M u(p ) for all P S, then u(x, t) u(x 0, t 0 ) = M = a constant for all (x, t) S where t 0 a 0 t t 0 + a 0, under the condition that u(x 0, t 0 ) = M > 0. Proof. Suppose there is Q = (x, t ) S such that u(q) < u(p 0 ), then it is possible to assume that t < t 0. Over the segment γ that joins points Q and P 0 there exists a point P 1 = (x 1, t 1 ) such that u(p 1 ) = u(p 0 ) and u(p ) < u(p 0 ) for every point P over the segment γ between Q and P 1, x 1 = (x 11, x 21,..., x N1 ). Le us suppose that P 1 = P 0, t = t 1 ã 1, for some real number ã 1 > 0. Since P 1 lies within S, there exist N real numbers b 1 > 0, b 2 > 0,..., b N, such that the rectangle S 1 = {(x 1, x 2,... x N, t) R N+1 : x i1 b i x i x i1 +b i, t 1 ã 1 t t 1, i = 1, 2,, N} S. By Lemma 3, if P = (x, t) S 1 y t < t 1, then u < u(p 1 ) in Ω {t}. Consider the following function: h(x, t) = (t 1 t) k x x 1 2, k > 0. Then it can be assumed that the paraboloid given by M = {(x, t) R N+1 : t 1 t = k x x 1 2 } = {(x 1, x 2,... x N, t) : N k[(x i x i1 ) 2 +(t t 1 )] = 0} intersects the set (Ω {t }) S 1. By the definition of function h, h 0 in M, h < 0 in the set above the paraboloid M and h > 0 in the subset bellow M. Furthermore, L[h](x, t) = 1 2k N a ii 2k N b i (x i x i1 ) + c(x, t)[(t 1 t) k x x 1 2 ] > 0 in S 1 if the dimensions of S 1 are allowed to be sufficiently small, and k > 0 is such that 4k N a ii < 1 in S 1. Let R be the set bounded by M and
6 1190 Humberto Serrano Ω {t } and with B = R M, B = R B. In B, u < u(p 0 ) δ for δ > 0 sufficiently small, then there exists ɛ > 0 such that v u + ɛh < 0 in B, also v u in B {P 1 } and v(p 1 ) = u(p 1 ). Since L[h] > 0 in S 1, L[v] = L[u] + ɛl[h] > 0 in S 1. From this last inequality and by Lemma 1 then: max R v = max R v = v(p 1 ) = u(p 1 ) = u(p 0 ), it can be concluded that 0 v t (P 1) = u t (P 1)+ɛ h t (P 1) = ɛ+ u t (P 1), u t (P 1) ɛ > 0. Since u(p 1 ) is maximum in S, it is true that u t (P 1) = 0. This contradiction proves the Lemma. Proof Theorem. Suppose there exists P = ( x, t) D such that u( P ) < u(p 0 ), t t 0, by Lemma 3, t < t 0. Since D is a connected set, there exists a continuous function γ : [0, 1] D such that γ(0) = P and γ(1) = P 0, and exists P 1 = (x 11, x 21,..., x N1 ) = γ(s ) γ([0, 1]) such that u(p 1 ) = u(p 0 ) and u(γ(s)) < u(p 0 ) for all 0 s < s. Since D is an open set, there exists a > 0 such that the rectangle S = {(x 1, x 2,... x N, t) R N+1 : x i1 a x i x i1 + a, t 1 a t t 1 + a, i = 1, 2,..., N} D. By Lemma 4 u = u(p 0 ) in S = {(x, t) S : t t 1 } and S γ([0, s ]) is non-empty. This fact leads to a contradiction. Theorem 2 Suppose u C 2,1 (D), L[u] 0 in D. If u attains a non-negative maximum at point P 0 = (x 0, t 0 ) D, then u is constant in Ω [a, t 0 ] The proof is exactly the same to that of Theorem 1 References [1] David Gilbarg and Neil S.
