Nuclear Spaces (Pietsch characterization) #
Defines the standard NuclearSpace typeclass (Pietsch characterization) and
proves that the Dynin-Mityagin characterization (DyninMityaginSpace) implies it.
Two notions of nuclearity #
The DyninMityaginSpace typeclass uses the Dynin-Mityagin
characterization: a Schauder basis with polynomial growth/decay in seminorms.
This is strictly stronger than Pietsch nuclearity (seminorm nuclear
dominance) because it additionally requires the existence of a Schauder basis.
The converse (Pietsch → Dynin-Mityagin) holds only for nuclear Fréchet spaces that already possess a Schauder basis (the Dynin-Mityagin theorem). We do not formalize that direction since our applications (Schwartz spaces) obtain the DM structure directly from the Hermite basis.

Nuclear Space Definition (Pietsch) #
A locally convex topological vector space over ℝ is nuclear if for every
continuous seminorm p, there exist continuous linear functionals (fₙ : E →L[ℝ] ℝ)
and non-negative reals (cₙ) with Σ cₙ < ∞, and a continuous seminorm q ≥ p,
such that:
(1) p(x) ≤ Σₙ ‖fₙ(x)‖ · cₙ for all x
(2) ‖fₙ(x)‖ ≤ q(x) for all x, n
This is Pietsch's characterization, equivalent to Grothendieck's definition that
the canonical map E_q → E_p between seminorm completions is nuclear.

Hahn-Banach for Continuous Seminorms #
Hahn-Banach for continuous seminorms.
For a continuous seminorm q and any vector f, there exists a continuous
linear functional φ attaining q at f and bounded by q everywhere.
Helper Lemmas for the Bridge Proof #
Auxiliary: a finset sup of seminorms applied to a sequence with polynomial growth in each seminorm has a uniform polynomial bound.
Given p' : ι → Seminorm ℝ E and a finite set s, if each p' i for i ∈ s
satisfies p' i (x m) ≤ Cᵢ · (1+m)^{tᵢ}, then (s.sup p') (x m) ≤ D · (1+m)^S
where S = max tᵢ and D = ∑ Cᵢ.
Seminorm bound from Schauder expansion.
For a continuous seminorm q and a Schauder basis with expansion
f = ∑ₘ cₘ(f) · ψₘ, the triangle inequality gives
q(f) ≤ ∑ₘ |cₘ(f)| · q(ψₘ).
The proof uses Hahn-Banach to find a CLF φ with φ(f) = q(f) and |φ| ≤ q,
then applies the Schauder expansion to φ and bounds the resulting tsum.
Strong Convergence of Schauder Expansion #
Summability of the Schauder expansion terms in a single seminorm.
For any seminorm index i and vector f, the series ∑ₘ |cₘ(f)| · pᵢ(ψₘ) converges.
The proof combines coefficient decay (exponent S+2) with basis growth (exponent S)
to produce a summable majorant 1/(1+m)².
Strong convergence of the Schauder expansion.
For any f : E in a DyninMityaginSpace, the series ∑ₘ cₘ(f) • ψₘ converges to f
in the locally convex topology. The proof uses Hahn-Banach for each seminorm
to bound the remainder by the tail of the summable series
∑ₘ |cₘ(f)| · pᵢ(ψₘ).
Bridge: Dynin-Mityagin → Pietsch #
Dynin-Mityagin implies Pietsch nuclearity.
A GaussianField.DyninMityaginSpace (Schauder basis with polynomial growth/decay)
gives rise to a NuclearSpace (Pietsch nuclear dominance).
Proof sketch. Given a continuous seminorm p:
- Bound
pby the defining seminorms:p ≤ C₁ · (s₁.sup hN.p) - Get uniform polynomial growth:
(s₁.sup hN.p)(ψₘ) ≤ D · (1+m)^S - Get coefficient decay with extra room:
|cₘ(f)| · (1+m)^{S+2} ≤ C₂ · (s₂.sup hN.p)(f) - Define CLFs
fₘ := (1+m)^{S+2} · cₘand coefficientsaₘ := C₁ · D · (1+m)^{-(2:ℤ)}(summable since exponent < -1) - The dominating seminorm is
q := C₁ · s₁.sup(p) + C₂ · s₂.sup(p)
