Extension operator as a linear map #
Guo's proof produces an extension of each class. Evans states the same theorem as a bounded linear operator, and this file packages it that way: the partition, the charts, the bounded graphs, the radii and the two cutoffs are all chosen from the domain alone, before any class appears, so the assembled extension is a formula in the class, and every step of that formula is either multiplication by a fixed function, precomposition with a fixed map, or a finite sum.
The domain of the operator is the pair of a class and its gradient, which is what the weak
gradient of this development relates; the bound of clause (iii) is stated on that pair, so the
operator is bounded in the sense the theorem asserts at every exponent, and not only at 2.

The operator #
Extension operator. A class and its gradient go to the extension and its gradient. The partition, the charts, the graphs, the radii and the cutoff are fixed before the class, so the map is linear.

Instances For
Three clauses of the theorem for the operator. The constant is quantified before the class, so the map is bounded in the sense clause (iii) asserts.
Evans's extension operator (§5.4 Theorem 1, p. 253). On a bounded domain with C¹
boundary, and for any open set the closure of the domain sits in, there is one ℝ-linear map
and one constant such that every class with a weak gradient on the domain goes to a class with
a weak gradient on the whole space, agreeing with it on the domain, supported inside that open
set, and bounded together with its gradient in every Lᵖ seminorm.
