Lp Extension Pairing Kernel #
Part of the Caffarelli–Kohn–Nirenberg partial regularity proof.
A function in L^p with compact support is integrable.
The compact support confines the function to a finite-measure set, where the
L^p membership with p ≥ 1 yields integrability, and integrability on the
support is equivalent to integrability on the whole space. This is the
integrability input for the pairing identities of cor:CZ-harmonic.
The derivative potential paired against a spatial derivative of a smooth
compactly supported test function equals the Newtonian potential of the mixed
second derivative paired against G.
The inner integral over x is the first-order adjoint identity of the
Newtonian kernel, and the remaining y-integration is the Fubini identity for
potentials against compactly supported data. This is the pairing form of
cor:CZ-harmonic used to move derivatives off the pressure potential.
