1 Appendix A Functional Analysis A.1 Metric Spaces, Banach Spaces, and Hilbert Spaces Definition A.1. Metric space. Let X be a set. A map d : X X R is called metric on X if for all x,y,z X it is i) d(x,y) = 0 x = y, ii) symmetry: d(x,y) = d(y,x), iii) triangle inequality: d(x,y) d(x,z)+d(z,y). Then (X,d) is called a metric space. Definition A.2. Isometric metric space. Two metric spaces (X 1,d 1 ) and X 2,d 2 ) are called isometric, if there is a surjective map g : X 1 X 2 such that for all x,y X 1 it is d 1 (x,y) = d 2 (g(x),g(y)). Definition A.3. Cauchy sequence, convergent sequence. Let {x n } n=1 be a sequence in a metric space (X,d). It is called a Cauchy sequence if for each ε > 0 there is a N N such that d(x k,x l ) < ε k,l N. The sequence {x n } n=1 is said to convergence to x X, denoted by x n x, if lim n d(x n,x) = 0. Definition A.4. Complete metric space. A metric space (X,d) is called complete, if each Cauchy sequence converges in X. That means, for each Cauchy sequence {x n } n=1 there exists an element x X such that x n x. Definition A.5. Norm, triangle inequality, seminorm, normed space. Let X be a linear space over R (or C). A mapping X : X R is called a norm on X if 293

2 294 A Functional Analysis i) definiteness: x X = 0 if and only if x = 0, ii) homogeneity: αx X = α x X for all x X, α R, iii) the triangle inequality holds: x+y X x X + y X for all x,y X. AmappingfromX torwhichsatisfiesonlyii)andiii)iscalledaseminorm on X. The space (X, X ) is called normed space. Definition A.6. Equivalent norms. Two norms X,1, X,2 of a normed space X are called equivalent, if there are two positive constants C 1 and C 2 such that C 1 x X,1 x X,2 C 2 x X,1 x X. Remark A.7. Equivalent norms in finite dimensional spaces. It is well known that in finite dimensional spaces all norms are equivalent. Lemma A.8. A normed space is a metric space. A normed space (X, X ) becomes a metric space with the induced metric d(x 1,x 2 ) = x 1 x 2 X, x 1,x 2 X. Definition A.9. Banach space. A normed space is called complete if it is a complete metric space with the induced metric. A complete normed space is called Banach space. Definition A.10. Inner product, scalar product.letx bealinearspace over R. A map (, ) X : X X R is called symmetric sesquilinear form if for all x,y,z X and all α R it holds that i) symmetry: (x,y) X = (y,x) X, ii) (αx,y) X = α(x,y), iii) (x,y +z) = (x,y)+(x,z). The symmetric sesquilinear form (, ) X is called positive semidefinite if for all x X it is (x,x) X 0. A positive semidefinite symmetric sesquilinear form with (x,x) X = 0 x = 0 is called inner product or scalar product on X. Definition A.11. Induced norm, inner product space, Hilbert space. Let (, ) X be an inner product on X, then (X,(, ) X is called pre Hilbert space. The inner product induces the norm x X = (x,x) 1/2 X at the inner product space or pre-hilbert space X. A complete inner product space is called Hilbert space. For simplicity of notation, the subscript at the inner product symbol will be neglected if the inner product is clear from the context.

3 A.1 Metric Spaces, Banach Spaces, and Hilbert Spaces 295 Lemma A.12. Cauchy Schwarz inequality. Let (X,(, )) be an inner product space, then it holds the so-called Cauchy Schwarz inequality (x,y) x X y X x,y X. (A.1) Example A.13. Cauchy Schwarz inequality for sums. Consider X = R n with the standard inner product for vectors, then one obtains with the triangle inequality and the Cauchy Schwarz inequality (A.1) n x i y i ( n n x i y i x 2 i ) 1/2 ( n 1/2 yi) 2, (A.2) for all x = (x 1,...,x n ) T,y = (y 1,...,y n ) T R n. Example A.14. Hölder inequality for sums. The Cauchy Schwarz inequality (A.2) is a special case of the Hölder inequality ( n n ) 1/p( n ) 1/q a i b i a i p b i q, 1 < p,q <, 1 p + 1 q = 1. (A.3) Definition A.15. Orthogonal elements, orthogonal complement of a subspace. Let X be a normed space endowed with an inner product (, ). Two elements x,y X are said to be orthogonal if (x,y) = 0. Let Y X be a subspace of X, then Y = {x X : (x,y) = 0 for all y Y} is the orthogonal complement of subspace to Y. Lemma A.16. Orthogonal complement is closed subspace. Let W V be a subspace of a Hilbert space V. Then, W is a closed subspace of V. Lemma A.17. Inequalities for real numbers. Let a,b R, then the following inequality is called Young s inequality: ab t p ap + t q/p b q, q 1 p + 1 = 1, 1 < p,q <, t > 0. q (A.4) The following inequalities for sums of non-negative real numbers hold: ( n n ) p n a i a 1/p i n p/q 1 a i, a i 0, p (1, ), p +1 = 1. (A.5) q The second inequality is just a consequence from (A.3). Lemma A.18. Estimate for a Rayleigh quotient. Let A R m n be a matrix, then

4 296 A Functional Analysis x T A T Ax ( inf x R n,x 0 x T = λ min A T A ), x where λ min ( A T A ) is the smallest eigenvalue of A T A. The infimum is taken, i.e., it is even a minimum. The quotient on the left-hand side is called Rayleigh quotient. Proof. The matrix A T A is symmetric and positive semi-definite. Hence, all eigenvalues are non-negative and the (normalized eigenvectors) {φ i } n, form a basis of Rn and they are mutually orthonormal. Let the eigenvalues be ordered such that 0 λ min ( A T A ) = λ 1 λ 2... λ n. Each vector x R n can be written in the form x = n x iφ i. Using that the eigenvectors are orthonormal, it follows that n x T x = x 2 i and n n n n x T A T Ax = x T x i A T Aφ i = λ i x j x i φ j φ i = λ i x 2 i λ ( min A T A ) n x 2 i. Hence, one gets Choosing x = x 1 φ 1 leads to j=1 x T A T Ax ( inf x R n,x 0 x T λ min A T A ). x x T A T Ax x T x = λ 1x 2 1 x 2 1 = λ 1 = λ min ( A T A ), such that the equal sign holds. A.2 Function Spaces Remark A.19. Motivation. The study of the existence and uniqueness of solutions of the Navier Stokes equations as well as the finite element error analysis requires tools from functional analysis, in particular the use of function spaces, certain inequalities, and imbedding theorems. There will be no difference in the notation for functions spaces for scalar, vector-valued, and tensor-valued functions. Let Ω R d, d {2,3}, be a domain. That means, Ω is an open set.

5 A.2 Function Spaces 297 A.2.1 Continuous Functions and Functions with Classical Derivatives Definition A.20. Derivatives and multi-index.amulti-indexαisavector α = (α 1,...,α n ) with α i N {0}, i = 1,...,n. Derivatives are denoted by where D α = x α1 α = α, 1... xαn n n α i. Low order derivatives are also denoted by subscripts, e.g., x u = u x. Definition A.21. Spaces of continuously differentiable functions C m (Ω), C m (Ω), and CB m (Ω). Let m N {0}, then the space of m-times continuously differentiable functions in Ω is denoted by C m (Ω) = { f : f and all its derivatives up to order m are continuous in Ω }. It is C (Ω) = C m (Ω). m=0 The space C m (Ω) for m < is defined by C m (Ω) = { f : f C m (Ω) and all derivatives can be extended continuously to Ω }. One defines Finally, the space C (Ω) = C m (Ω). m=0 C m B(Ω) = { f : f C m (Ω) and f is bounded }. is introduced.

6 298 A Functional Analysis Remark A.22. Spaces of continuously differentiable functions C m (Ω), C m (Ω), and CB m(ω). If Ω is bounded, then C m (Ω), equipped with the norm f Cm (Ω) = max D α f(x), x Ω 0 α m is a Banach space. The space CB m (Ω) becomes a Banach space with the norm It is f C m B (Ω) = max sup D α f(x). 0 α mx Ω C m (Ω) C m B(Ω) C m (Ω). Consider, e.g., Ω = (0,1) and f(x) = sin(1/x), then f C B (Ω) but f C(Ω). Definition A.23. Support. Let f C(Ω), then supp(f) = {x : f(x) 0} is the support of f(x). The closure is taken with respect to R d. A function f C(Ω)issaidtohaveacompactsupport,ifthesupportoff(x)isbounded in R d and if supp(f) Ω. Definition A.24. The space C m 0 (Ω). The space C m 0 (Ω) is given by C m 0 (Ω) = {f : f C m (Ω) and supp(f) is compact in Ω}. In the literature, this space C 0 (Ω) is often denoted by D(Ω). Definition A.25. The spaces C m,α (Ω), spaces of Hölder continuous functions. Let M R d, d {2,3}, be a set and let α (0,1]. Then, the constant { } u(x) u(y) f C 0,α (M) = sup x y M x y α. is called Hölder coefficient or Hölder constant. For α = 1, it is usually called Lipschitz constant. Let Ω be bounded. For m N {0}, then the following spaces are defined C m,α (Ω) = { f C m (Ω) : D β f C 0,α (Ω) <, β = m}. For m = 0, these spaces are called spaces of Hölder continuous functions, and for α = 1, space of Lipschitz continuous functions.

7 A.2 Function Spaces 299 Remark A.26. The spaces C m,α (Ω). The spaces C m,α (Ω) are Banach spaces if they are equipped with the norm f C m,α (Ω) = f C m (Ω) + [D β f] C 0,α (Ω). β =m A.2.2 Lebesgue and Sobolev Spaces Definition A.27. Spaces of (Lebesgue) integrable functions L p (Ω). The Lebesgue spaces are defined by { } L p (Ω) = f : f(x) p dx <, p [1, ), Ω where the integral is to be understood in the sense of Lebesgue. The space L (Ω) is the space of all functions which are bounded for almost all x Ω L (Ω) = {f : f(x) < for almost all x Ω}. Remark A.28. Lebesgue spaces. The space L p (Ω) is a normed vector space with norm ( 1/p f Lp (Ω) = f(x) dx) p, p [1, ). Ω An important special case is L 2 (Ω) since this space is a Hilbert space. The inner product (f,g) L2 (Ω) of L 2 (Ω) and the induced norm are given by (f,g) L2 (Ω) = f(x)g(x) dx, f L2 (Ω) = (f,f)1/2 L 2 (Ω). Ω For functions from L (Ω), there may be some points where the value of f(x) is infinity but the measure of the set of these points has to be zero, which is given, e.g., if this set consists only a finite number of points. Th space L (Ω) becomes a Banach space if it is equipped with the norm f L (Ω) = esssup f(x), x Ω where esssup x Ω is the essential supremum.

8 300 A Functional Analysis Example A.29. Cauchy Schwarz inequality, Hölder inequality. Let f L p (Ω) and g L q (Ω) with p,q [1, ] and 1/p+1/q = 1. Then it is fg L 1 (Ω) and the Hölder inequality holds fg L 1 (Ω) f L p (Ω) g L q (Ω). (A.6) For p = q = 2, this inequality is called Cauchy Schwarz inequality fg L 1 (Ω) f L 2 (Ω) g L 2 (Ω). (A.7) Definition A.30. Sobolev spaces W k,p (Ω). Let k N and p [1, ]. The Sobolev space W k,p (Ω) consists of all integrable functions f : Ω R such that for each multi-index α with α k, the derivative D α f exists in the weak sense and it belongs to L p (Ω). Remark A.31. Sobolev spaces. It is L p (Ω) = W 0,p (Ω). A norm in Sobolev spaces is defined by ( 1/p f W k,p (Ω) = α k Dα f p L (Ω)) if p [1, ), p α k esssup x Ω D α f if p =. Sobolev spaces equipped with this norm are Banach spaces, e.g., see (Evans, 2010, p. 262). The Sobolev spaces for p = 2 are Hilbert spaces. They are often denoted by W m,2 (Ω) = H m (Ω) and they are equipped with the inner product (f,g) H k (Ω) = (D α f,d α g) L2 (Ω). α k In particular, the Sobolev spaces of first order are important for the study of the Navier Stokes equations { } W 1,p (Ω) = f : f(x) p + f(x) p dx <, p [1, ), which are equipped with the norm Ω ( 1/p f W 1,p (Ω) = f(x) p + f(x) dx) p, p [1, ). Ω ThedefinitionofSobolevspacescanbeextendedtok R,e.g.,seeAdams (1975).

9 A.2 Function Spaces 301 Definition A.32. Sobolev spaces W k,p 0 (Ω). The Sobolev spaces W k,p 0 (Ω) are defined by the closure of C0 (Ω) in the norm of W k,p (Ω). Remark A.33. On the smoothness of the boundary. The Sobolev imbedding theorem in Adams Adams (1975) requires that Ω has the so-called cone propertyorthestronglocallipschitzproperty.inthecasethatω isbounded, these assumptions reduce to the requirement that Ω has a locally Lipschitz boundary, (Adams, 1975, p. 67). That means, each point x in the boundary Ω of Ω has a neighborhood U x such the Ω U x is the graph of a Lipschitz continuous function. Theorem A.34. Trace theorem, (Evans, 2010, p. 272). geht mit Lipschitz boundary, anderer Verweis. Let Ω be a bounded domain with C 1 boundary Ω. Then, there is a bounded linear operator T : W 1,p (Ω) L p ( Ω) such that i) Tf = f Ω if f W 1,p (Ω) C((Ω), ii) Tf L p ( Ω) C f W 1,p (Ω) for each f W1,p (Ω), with the constant C depending only on p and Ω. Theorem A.35. Functions with vanishing trace, (Evans, 2010, p. 273). Let the assumptions of Theorem A.34 be given. Then f W 1,p 0 (Ω) if and only if Tf = 0 on Ω. Theorem A.36. Poincaré s inequality, Poincaré Friedrichs inequality, (Gilbarg and Trudinger, 1983, p. 164). Let f W 1,p 0 (Ω), then ( ) 1/d Ω f Lp (Ω) f ω Lp(Ω) p [1, ), (A.8) d where ω d is the volume of the unit ball in R d. Remark A.37. Poincaré s inequality. Poincaré s inequality (A.8) holds also for functions v H 1 (Ω) with v = 0 on Γ 0 Γ with meas(γ 0 ) > 0. Poincaré s inequality stays valid for vector-valued functions v if Ω is bounded with a locally Lipschitz boundary, v W 1,q (Ω), 1 q < and v n = 0 on Ω, see (Galdi, 1994, Section II.4). there are some results on the constants, see Payne, Weinberger (1960), Laugesen, Siudeja (2010) Theorem A.38. Density of continuous functions in Sobolev spaces, (Gilbarg and Trudinger, 1983, p. 154). The subspace C (Ω) W k,p (Ω) is dense in W k,p (Ω). Remark A.39. Density of continuous functions in Sobolev spaces. For C (Ω) to be dense in W k,p (Ω), one needs some smoothness assumptions on the boundary Ω, e.g., Ω is C 1 or the so-called segment property, Gilbarg and Trudinger (1983). This segment property follows from the strong local Lipschitz property, see (Adams, 1975, p. 67).

10 302 A Functional Analysis Theorem A.40. Interpolation theorem for Sobolev spaces, (Adams, 1975, Theorem 4.17). Let Ω R d be a bounded domain with a locally Lipschitz boundary and let p [1, ). Then there exists a constant C(m,p,Ω) such that for 0 j m and any u W m,p (Ω) u W j,p (Ω) C(m,p,Ω) u j/m W m,p (Ω) u (m j)/m L p (Ω). (A.9) In addition, (A.9) is valid for all u W m,p 0 (Ω) with a constant C(m,p,d) independent of Ω. Remark A.41. Imbedding theorems. Imbedding theorems for Sobolev spaces are used frequently in the analysis of partial differential equations. They can be found, e.g., in the book Adams (1975). The imbedding theorems state that all functions belonging to a certain space do belong also to another space and that the norm of the functions in the larger space can be estimated by the norm in the smaller space. Let V be a Banach space such that an imbedding W m,p (Ω) V holds. Then, there is a constant C depending on Ω such that v V C v W m,p (Ω) for all functions v W m,p (Ω). The validity of imbeddings depends on the dimension d of the domain Ω. The larger the dimension, the less imbeddings are valid. ThepresentationoftheSobolevimbeddingtheoremfollowsAdams(Adams, 1975, Theorem 5.4, Remark 5.5. (6)). Here, only the case of bounded domains will be presented. Theorem A.42. The Sobolev imbedding theorem. Let Ω R d be a bounded domain with a locally Lipschitz boundary. Let j and m be nonnegative integers and let p satisfy 1 p <. i) Let mp < d, then the imbedding W j+m,p (Ω) W j,q (Ω), 1 q dp d mp (A.10) holds. In particular, it is W m,p (Ω) L q (Ω), 1 q dp d mp. (A.11) ii) Suppose mp = d. Then the imbedding W m,p (Ω) L q (Ω), 1 q < (A.12) is valid. If in addition p = 1, then this imbedding holds also for q = W d,1 (Ω) L (Ω)

11 A.2 Function Spaces 303 and even W d,1 (Ω) C B (Ω). iii) Suppose that mp > d, then the imbedding holds. iv) Suppose mp > d > (m 1)p, then W m,p (Ω) C B (Ω) W j+m,p (Ω) C j,λ( Ω ) for 0 < λ m d p. (A.13) v) Suppose d = (m 1)p, then W j+m,p (Ω) C j,λ( Ω ) for 0 < λ < 1. This imbedding holds for λ = 1 if p = 1 and d = m 1. vi) All imbeddings are true for arbitrary domains provided the W spaces undergoing the imbedding are replaced with the corresponding W 0 spaces. Example A.43. Important Sobolev imbeddings.letd = 2.Thenitfollowsfrom (A.12) that H 1 (Ω) = W 1,2 (Ω) L q (Ω), q [1, ). (A.14) For d = 3, one gets with (A.11) that H 1 (Ω) = W 1,2 (Ω) L q (Ω), q [1,6]. (A.15) A.2.3 Other Spaces Remark A.44. Spaces of divergence-free functions. These spaces are denoted by the subscript div, e.g. L 2 div(ω) = { f : f L 2 (Ω) and f = 0 in the sense of distributions }. (A.16) Remark A.45. H(div,Ω) = { v L 2 (Ω) : v L 2 (Ω) } H(curl,Ω) = { v L 2 (Ω) : curl v L 2 (Ω) } H(curl,Ω) = { v L 2 (Ω) : v L 2 (Ω) } (A.17) (A.18) (A.19)

12 304 A Functional Analysis Remark A.46. Spaces of functions defined in space-time domains. Let X be any normed space introduced above which is equipped with the norm X and let (t 0,t 1 ) be a time interval. Then L p (t 0,t 1 ;X) = { f(t,x) : The norm of L p (t 0,t 1 ;X) is f Lp (t 0,t 1;X) = ( 1t t1 t 0 f p X } (τ) dτ <, p [1, ). ) 1/p f p X (τ) dτ, p [1, ). t 0 The modifications for p = are the same as for the Lebesgue spaces. Important spaces for the study of the Navier Stokes equations are C 0 (Ω) = {f : f C (Ω),f has compact support}, C 0,div(Ω) = {f : f C 0 (Ω), f = 0}. (A.20) A.3 Bounded Linear Operators in Banach Spaces Definition A.47. Linear operator, range, kernel. Let X and Y be real Banach spaces. A mapping A : X Y is a linear operator if A(αx 1 +βx 2 ) = αax 1 +βax 2 x 1,x 2 X,α,β R. The range or image of A is given by range(a) = {y Y : y = Ax for some x X}. The kernel or the null space of A is defined by ker(a) = {x X : Ax = 0}. Definition A.48. Bounded operator, continuous operator. An operator A : X Y, X,Y Banach spaces, is bounded if Ax A = sup Y = x X x X sup Ax Y = x X, x X 1 sup x X, x X =1 Ax Y <. (A.21)

13 A.4 Functionals and Bilinear Forms 305 The operator A is continuous in x 0 X if for each ε > 0 there is a δ > 0 such that for all x X with x x 0 X < δ if follows that Ax Ax 0 Y < ε. The operator A is called a continuous operator if A is continuous for all x X. Remark A.49. Equivalent definition of a continuous operator. The operator A : X Y, X,Y Banach spaces, is continuous in x 0 X if and only if for all sequences {x n } n=1, x n X, with x n x 0 it holds that Ax n Ax 0 in Y. Lemma A.50. Properties of bounded linear operators. Let X,Y be Banach spaces. i) A bounded linear operator A : X Y is continuous. ii) A continuous linear operator A : X Y is bounded. iii) The set L(X,Y) = {A : A is a bounded linear operator from X to Y} is a Banach space endowed with the norm (A.21). Proof. See (Kolmogorov and Fomin, 1975, 4.5.2, 4.5.3). Definition A.51. Linear functional. A (real) linear functional f defined on a Banach space X is a linear operator with range(f) R. A.4 Functionals and Bilinear Forms Definition A.52. Bounded bilinear form, coercive bilinear form, V- elliptic bilinear form. Let b(, ) : V V R be a bilinear form on the Banach space V. Then it is bounded if b(u,v) M u V v V u,v V,M > 0, (A.22) where the constant M is independent of u and v. The bilinear form is coercive or V-elliptic if b(u,u) m u 2 V u V,m > 0, (A.23) where the constant m is independent of u. Remark A.53. Application to an inner product. Let V be a Hilbert space. Then the inner product a(, ) is a bounded and coercive bilinear form, since by the Cauchy Schwarz inequality a(u,v) u V v V u,v V, and obviously a(u,u) = u 2 V. Hence, the constants can be chosen to be M = 1 and m = 1.

14 306 A Functional Analysis Theorem A.54. Theorem of Banach on the inverse operator, (Kolmogorov and Fomin, 1975, p. 225). Let A : X Y be a bounded linear operator which defines a one-to-one mapping between the Banach spaces X and Y. Then, the inverse operator A 1 is bounded. Theorem A.55. Closed Range Theorem of Banach,?. Let X,Y be Banach spaces and let A : X Y be a bounded linear operator and let A : Y X be its dual. Then, the following statements are equivalent: i) range(a) is closed, ii) range(a) = {y Y : y,y Y,Y = 0 for all y ker(a )}, iii) range(a ) is closed, iv) range(a ) = {x X : x,x X,X = 0 for all x ker(a)}. Theorem A.56. Hahn Banach Theorem, (Yosida, 1980, IV,1), (?, p. 67). Let X be a Banach space, let Y be a subspace of X, and let f be a bounded linear functional defined on Y. Then, there exists an extension g of f to X, where g is a linear functional with the same norm as f.
