Infinite dimensionality of H₀¹ of the unit ball #
EllipticPdes.Sobolev.exists_eigen_family recurses on a vector of nonzero L² class
orthogonal to the family built so far, which is the infinite dimensionality of H₀¹(Ω). This
file discharges it on the unit ball.
n bumps sit at the points ((2k+1)/(2n) - 1/2)eᵢ of the first coordinate axis, each supported
in the ball of radius 1/(2n) about its centre. The centres are 1/n apart, so the supports are
disjoint, and each closed support sits inside the unit ball since 1/2 + 1/(2n) < 1. Disjoint
supports make the L² classes orthogonal, and each is nonzero because a bump is one at its
centre.
Given m vectors, take m + 1 of these bumps. A linear map from an (m+1)-dimensional space to
an m-dimensional one has a nonzero kernel, so some combination of the bumps is L²-orthogonal
to all m vectors, and orthogonality of the bumps makes that combination nonzero.

A bump at a centre #
A bump at c, one on closedBall c (r/2) and supported in closedBall c r.
Equations
- EllipticPdes.Sobolev.ballBump c hr = { rIn := r / 2, rOut := r, rIn_pos := ⋯, rIn_lt_rOut := ⋯ }
Instances For
A bump has positive Lᵖ seminorm, being continuous and one at its centre.
The centres #
The common radius: half the spacing, so the balls are disjoint.
Equations
- EllipticPdes.Sobolev.bumpRadius n = 1 / (2 * ↑n)
Instances For
The k-th centre, on the i-th coordinate axis.
Equations
- EllipticPdes.Sobolev.bumpCentre i n k = PiLp.single 2 i (EllipticPdes.Sobolev.bumpCoord n k)
Instances For
The family in H₀¹ of the unit ball #
The k-th bump of a family of n, as a function.
Equations
- EllipticPdes.Sobolev.bumpFn i n k = ↑(EllipticPdes.Sobolev.ballBump (EllipticPdes.Sobolev.bumpCentre i n k) ⋯)
Instances For
The k-th bump, as an element of H₀¹ of the unit ball.
Equations
- EllipticPdes.Sobolev.bumpElt i n k = ⟨⋯.testGraph, ⋯⟩
Instances For
Each class is nonzero, the bump being one at its centre.
The hypothesis of the eigenvalue recursion #
H₀¹ of the unit ball is infinite dimensional, in the form the eigenvalue recursion
asks for: given m vectors there is one of nonzero L² class orthogonal to them all. Take
m + 1 bumps with disjoint supports; a linear map from an (m+1)-dimensional space to an
m-dimensional one has a nonzero kernel, and the combination it names is nonzero because the
bumps are orthogonal.
Dirichlet eigenvalue sequence of the unit ball, with 2 < d the only hypothesis: for
every n an L²-orthonormal family of n weak solutions of -Δw = λw with
0 < λ₁ ≤ ⋯ ≤ λₙ. Every side condition of the chapter is discharged here, boundedness by the
ball itself and the infinite dimensionality by orth_family_nonempty_ball.
Every weak Dirichlet eigenvalue of the unit ball is positive, with 2 < d the only
hypothesis beyond the eigenpair.
