Parabolic Hölder seminorms on time slabs #
For a function v on a set of parabolic space-time, typically the closed time slab E × [a, b],
the parabolic α-Hölder seminorm [v]_{α,par} is Mathlib's eHolderNorm α v, taken with respect
to the parabolic distance dist x y + √|t - s|. This file identifies it with the supremum of the
parabolic difference quotients and, on slabs, compares it with two separate seminorms:
- the spatial seminorm
spaceEHolderNorm α v, the supremum over timestof theα-Hölder seminorms of the slicesx ↦ v (x, t); - the temporal seminorm
timeEHolderNorm γ v, the supremum over positionsxof theγ-Hölder seminorms of the slicest ↦ v (x, t), with respect to the ordinary time distance|t - s|.
A function is parabolically α-Hölder exactly when it is α-Hölder in space and α / 2-Hölder
in time, uniformly, with
max (spaceEHolderNorm α v) (timeEHolderNorm (α / 2) v) ≤ eHolderNorm α v
and eHolderNorm α v ≤ spaceEHolderNorm α v + timeEHolderNorm (α / 2) v.
For a function u of the coordinates, twice differentiable in space and differentiable in time,
the temporal (1 + α) / 2 seminorm of the spatial gradient D_x u on a slab is at most the sum of
the parabolic α seminorms of the Hessian D_x² u and of the time derivative ∂ₜ u. Thus this
seminorm, which enters the norm of C^{2+α, 1+α/2}, is controlled by the other top-order terms.
Bounded Lipschitz maps on ordinary space-time also give uniformly parabolic Hölder maps under translations of space and time.
Finally, a bounded α-Hölder field on space is a time-independent bounded parabolically
α-Hölder field on any slab, since the spatial position is 1-Lipschitz for the parabolic
distance.

Bounded Lipschitz maps on ordinary space-time are uniformly Hölder for the parabolic distance, even when time ranges over the whole real line.
The parabolic Hölder seminorm of a function on a set of parabolic space-time is the supremum
of the parabolic difference quotients dist (v p) (v q) / (dist x y + √|t - s|) ^ α over distinct
points p = (x, t) and q = (y, s).
The spatial α-Hölder seminorm of a function on the slab E × [a, b]: the supremum over
times t ∈ [a, b] of the α-Hölder seminorms of the slices x ↦ v (x, t).
Instances For
The temporal γ-Hölder seminorm of a function on the slab E × [a, b]: the supremum over
positions x of the γ-Hölder seminorms of the slices t ↦ v (x, t), with respect to the
ordinary distance |t - s| on [a, b].
Instances For
The spatial seminorm is bounded by C exactly when every time slice satisfies the
α-Hölder inequality with constant C.
A function of the coordinates that is parabolically α-Hölder on the slab E × [a, b] is
α-Hölder in space, with the same constant, on every time slice of the slab.
The temporal seminorm is bounded by C exactly when every spatial position satisfies the
γ-Hölder inequality in time with constant C.
The Hölder seminorm of each time slice is bounded by the temporal seminorm.
If the temporal γ-seminorm is finite, then every time slice is γ-Hölder.
Reparametrizing time by a 1-Lipschitz map does not increase the temporal seminorm: if
w (x, t) = v (x, φ t) on the slab E × [a', b'] for a 1-Lipschitz φ : [a', b'] → [a, b],
such as the inclusion of a subinterval or the reversal t ↦ T - t, then
[w]_{t,γ} ≤ [v]_{t,γ}.
The spatial seminorm is bounded by the parabolic seminorm: at a common time, the parabolic distance is the spatial distance.
The temporal α / 2-seminorm is bounded by the parabolic α-seminorm: at a common position,
the parabolic distance is the square root of the time distance.
The parabolic α-seminorm is bounded by the sum of the spatial α-seminorm and the temporal
α / 2-seminorm.
A function on a slab is parabolically α-Hölder exactly when it is α-Hölder in space and
α / 2-Hölder in time, uniformly in the other variable.
The temporal seminorm of the spatial gradient #
The temporal seminorm of the spatial gradient is controlled. Let u (x, t) be twice
differentiable in x ∈ E and differentiable in t within [a, b], with spatial derivatives
u', u'' and time derivative uₜ. On the slab E × [a, b], the temporal (1 + α) / 2
seminorm of the gradient u' is at most the sum of the temporal α / 2 seminorm of the Hessian
u'' and the spatial α seminorm of uₜ.
The temporal seminorm of the spatial gradient is controlled by parabolic seminorms. On
the slab E × [a, b], the temporal (1 + α) / 2 seminorm of the spatial gradient of u is at
most the sum of the parabolic α seminorms of its Hessian and of its time derivative. In
particular it is finite whenever these are.
Time-independent Hölder fields on a slab #
A bounded α-Hölder field on space, viewed as a time-independent bounded parabolically
α-Hölder field on the slab E × [a, b]: precomposition with the spatial position, which is
1-Lipschitz for the parabolic distance.
