Ball means and the Campanato decay hypothesis #

The C^{k,α} scale of Schauder theory rests on Campanato's characterisation of Hölder continuity: a function whose mean oscillation over balls decays like r^α has a Hölder representative of exponent α. This file fixes the two objects that characterisation is stated through, the mean

u_{x,r} = ⨍_{B(x,r)} u

written ballAverage u x r, and the decay hypothesis

∫_{B(x,r)} |u - u_{x,r}|² ≤ M² r^{d + 2α} for every ball B(x,r) ⊆ Ω,

written CampanatoOn Ω u α M. The hypothesis quantifies over balls contained in Ω, which is the form property (H3) of Fernández-Real and Ros-Oton takes, so every mean in sight is a mean over a ball and has the exact volume r^d · |B(0,1)|.

The rest of the file records what the estimates downstream need: the volume of a ball as a real number, and the integrability of u and of (u - c)² on a ball, both read off from MemLp u 2 (volume.restrict Ω).

The volume of the unit ball of EuclideanSpace ℝ (Fin d), as a real number. Every ball volume in this library is a multiple of it, so it is convenient to name it once.

Equations
Instances For

    The unit ball has positive volume.

    The volume of B(x, r) is r^d times the volume of the unit ball.

    The volume of B(x, r) written with a real exponent, the form the decay hypothesis uses.

    The restriction of Lebesgue measure to a ball is finite.

    noncomputable def EllipticPdes.Campanato.ballAverage {d : ℕ} (u : EuclideanSpace ℝ (Fin d) → ℝ) (x : EuclideanSpace ℝ (Fin d)) (r : ℝ) :

    Mean of u over the ball B(x, r). Campanato's hypothesis measures the oscillation of u about this value, and the characterisation produces the Hölder representative as the limit of these means as r → 0.

    Instances For

      Campanato decay hypothesis. The mean oscillation of u over every ball contained in Ω decays at the rate r^{d + 2α}, with constant M. For 0 < α ≤ 1 this forces u to have a Hölder representative of exponent α on the interior of Ω; that is the content of EllipticPdes.Campanato.campanato_holderOnWith.

        The decay hypothesis weakens when the constant grows.

        The decay hypothesis shrinks with the domain.

        Square integrability on Ω restricts to any ball inside Ω.

        Subtracting a constant preserves square integrability on a ball.

        The squared deviation of u from a constant is integrable on a ball inside Ω.
