Iterated derivatives of homogeneous maps #
Let f (x, ξ) be a map on E × F that is C^n on ξ ≠ 0 and positively homogeneous of degree
m in ξ, that is f (x, t • ξ) = t ^ m • f (x, ξ) for t > 0 and ξ ≠ 0. Differentiating the
homogeneity relation shows that its derivatives in j directions in x and l directions in ξ
are homogeneous of degree m - l in ξ
(TauCeti.iteratedFDeriv_append_smul_snd_of_smul_snd_eq). When F is proper (for instance
finite-dimensional), the derivatives are bounded on the compact sets K × {‖ξ‖ = 1}, and rescaling
ξ to the unit sphere gives the estimate ≤ C ‖ξ‖ ^ (m - l) for x ∈ K and ξ ≠ 0
(TauCeti.exists_norm_iteratedFDeriv_append_le_of_smul_snd_eq).
For a map m on a proper real normed space that is C^N away from the origin and homogeneous of
degree 0, that is m (t • ξ) = m ξ for every t > 0, this gives the decay
‖D^k m ξ‖ ≤ A / ‖ξ‖ ^ k for k ≤ N (TauCeti.exists_norm_iteratedFDeriv_le_div_pow_of_smul_eq).
This is Mihlin's condition for a Fourier multiplier symbol, so every symbol that is smooth away
from the origin and homogeneous of degree 0 is an Lᵖ multiplier for 1 < p < ∞. The same
estimates for homogeneous symbols of any degree underlie the symbol classes of pseudodifferential
operators. In one variable and integer degree d, with homogeneity required only away from the
origin, the derivatives satisfy ‖D^k m ξ‖ ≤ A ‖ξ‖ ^ (d - k)
(TauCeti.exists_norm_iteratedFDeriv_le_mul_zpow_of_smul_eq).
In degree d ≤ 0 the derivatives are bounded away from the origin. Hence a globally C^N map that
agrees with such a homogeneous map outside a ball has bounded derivatives of every order up to N
(TauCeti.exists_norm_iteratedFDeriv_le_of_eq_of_smul_eq). Examples are the winding phases
(z / |z|) ^ m and the angular form dθ on the plane, after a cutoff near the origin.

The norm of the j-th derivative of a positively homogeneous map of degree p scales
by t^(p-j). No smoothness is needed, and the normed source and target need neither finite
dimensionality nor completeness.
The derivatives of a map f (x, ξ) that is positively homogeneous of degree m in ξ are
homogeneous: rescaling ξ by t > 0, together with the ξ-components of the directions,
multiplies the derivative by t ^ m.
The derivative of a map f (x, ξ) that is positively homogeneous of degree m in ξ, in
j directions in x and l directions in ξ, is homogeneous of degree m - l in ξ.
Let f (x, ξ) be C^n on ξ ≠ 0 and positively homogeneous of degree m in ξ, with ξ
in a proper space. For x in a compact set and ξ ≠ 0, its derivatives of order k ≤ n are
bounded by C ‖ξ‖ ^ m, once the ξ-components of the directions are rescaled by ‖ξ‖⁻¹.
Let f (x, ξ) be C^n on ξ ≠ 0 and positively homogeneous of degree m in ξ, with ξ
in a proper space. Its derivatives in j directions u in x and l directions w in ξ,
with j + l ≤ n, are bounded by C ‖ξ‖ ^ (m - l) ∏ ‖u i‖ ∏ ‖w i‖ for x in a compact set and
ξ ≠ 0.
Derivative bounds for homogeneous maps. Let m be a map on a proper (for instance
finite-dimensional) real normed space that is C^N away from the origin and homogeneous of degree
d there, that is m (t • ξ) = t ^ d • m ξ for every t > 0 and ξ ≠ 0. Then there is a
constant A with ‖D^k m ξ‖ ≤ A * ‖ξ‖ ^ (d - k) for every k ≤ N and every ξ ≠ 0.
Homogeneous maps of degree zero satisfy Mihlin's condition. Let m be a map on a proper
(for instance finite-dimensional) real normed space that is C^N away from the origin and
homogeneous of degree 0, that is m (t • ξ) = m ξ for every t > 0. Then there is a constant
A with ‖D^k m ξ‖ ≤ A / ‖ξ‖ ^ k for every k ≤ N and every ξ ≠ 0.
Bounded derivatives from homogeneity at infinity. A C^N map f on a proper real normed
space that agrees outside a ball with a map m which is C^N away from the origin and homogeneous
of degree d ≤ 0 there has bounded derivatives of every order k ≤ N.
