Energy-integrand estimates from uniform ellipticity #
TauCeti.Analysis.PDE.EnergyForm.Basic and TauCeti.Analysis.PDE.EnergyLowerBounds prove the
pointwise estimates for divergence-form energy integrands from raw coefficient bounds.
This file packages the same estimates for callers that hold the principal
coefficient hypothesis UniformlyEllipticOn Ω a λ Λ.
The statements are still pointwise finite-dimensional estimates on jets
ℝ × EuclideanSpace ℝ n, not integrated Sobolev-space theorems, and they are not the
hypothesis of Lax--Milgram: that needs coercivity of the integrated form on a complete
inner-product (H¹-type) space. They are the pointwise boundedness and
diagonal lower bounds that the integrated inequality of
TauCeti.Analysis.PDE.EnergyForm.Integrated.Basic consumes after integrating over the domain.
This file deliberately leaves symmetry to TauCeti.Analysis.PDE.SymmetricEnergy. For a
zero-drift uniformly elliptic operator with symmetric principal coefficient, use
UniformlyEllipticOn.min_diagonal_lower_bound_mul_norm_sq_le_energyIntegrand_self for the
diagonal lower bound and the energyIntegrand_zero_drift_flip_eq_* lemmas for symmetry; for
nonsymmetric coefficients, the symmetric-part API in
TauCeti.Analysis.PDE.Ellipticity.Basic preserves the ellipticity constants before applying
the same symmetry lemmas.

Pointwise boundedness of the energy integrand from uniform ellipticity of the principal coefficient and pointwise bounds on the drift and mass coefficients.
Operator-norm boundedness of the energy integrand from uniform ellipticity of the principal coefficient and pointwise bounds on the drift and mass coefficients.
Pointwise Gårding inequality for a uniformly elliptic principal coefficient.
With nonnegative mass coefficient and drift bound β, the diagonal energy density is bounded
below by (λ/2)‖∇u‖² - (β²/2λ)|u|².
Pointwise Gårding lower bound with a mass floor for a uniformly elliptic principal coefficient.
For any ε > 0, the gradient coefficient is λ - ε and the value coefficient is
μ - β²/(4ε). The estimate also holds when either coefficient is nonpositive.
Pointwise Gårding lower bound with a mass floor for a uniformly elliptic principal coefficient.
With drift bound β and mass lower bound μ, the diagonal energy density is bounded below
by (λ / 2)‖∇u‖² + (μ - β² / (2λ))u².
The lower-bound estimate implies the explicit diagonal estimate with constant
min (λ / 2) (μ - β² / (2λ)), allowing the second coefficient to have either sign.
Zero-drift diagonal lower bound for a uniformly elliptic principal coefficient and an arbitrary mass coefficient.
A zero-drift energy density for a uniformly elliptic principal coefficient dominates the squared gradient component when the mass coefficient is nonnegative.
