Campanato decay of a Hölder function #

A function that is Hölder of exponent α on Ω oscillates by at most K (2r)^α over any ball of radius r contained in Ω, so its mean oscillation there is bounded by K (2r)^α as well, and squaring and integrating over a ball of volume r^d |B(0,1)| gives the Campanato bound with

M = K · 2^α · √|B(0,1)|.

Together with campanato_holderOnWith this makes CampanatoOn a characterisation of Hölder continuity, which is the form Schauder theory consumes: a Hölder coefficient feeds in a Campanato decay rate, and a Campanato decay rate feeds out a Hölder bound.

A Hölder function stays within K (2r)^α of its mean over any ball of radius r inside the set where the Hölder bound holds.

Converse of Campanato's characterisation. A function that is Hölder of exponent α with constant K on Ω satisfies the Campanato decay hypothesis on Ω with constant K · 2^α · √|B(0,1)|. Squaring the mean-oscillation bound K (2r)^α and integrating over a ball of volume r^d |B(0,1)| is the whole proof.
