Finiteness #
Part of the Caffarelli–Kohn–Nirenberg partial regularity proof.
Finiteness of the scale quantities on suitable weak solutions #
The quantities α, β, γ, δ, λ of paper/ckn.tex are real-valued, so the
lemmas lem:monotonicity and lem:scaling-quantities for them carry side
conditions saying that the underlying nonnegative integrals are finite (a
necessary input when passing an ℝ≥0∞ integral to ℝ≥0). The class def:sws
of suitable weak solutions supplies exactly these finiteness properties on every
local box, and this file transfers them to the parabolic cylinders Q_r(z) of
the monotonicity and scaling statements.
The main transfer fact is that a cylinder whose closure lies in the open carrier
Ω × I is contained in a local box: the spatial slice is enclosed in a metric
thickening of its closed ball, and the time slice in a thickening of its closed
interval, both chosen small enough to stay inside Ω and I.
Elementary comparisons of the two norms on Vec3 #
Cylinders inside local boxes #
A parabolic cylinder whose closure lies in the open carrier Ω × I is
contained in a local box Ω' × J. The box is obtained by thickening the
compact closed slices of the cylinder; the carrier is open, so a positive
thickening radius keeps it inside.
The finiteness data on a local box #
On a cylinder whose closure lies in the carrier, the def:sws time-slice
energy estimate bounds the essential supremum of the Euclidean time-slice energy
occurring in lem:monotonicity for α.

Finiteness of the gradient, pressure and force integrals #
The Dirichlet-energy integral of lem:monotonicity for β is finite on a
cylinder whose closure lies in the carrier.
The pressure integral of lem:monotonicity for δ is finite on a cylinder
whose closure lies in the carrier.
The force integral of lem:monotonicity for λ is finite on a cylinder
whose closure lies in the carrier, for the exponent q > 0 of def:sws.
