The vacuum vortex operator on the Sobolev scale #

The gauge-fixed linearization L₀ of the vortex equations at the vacuum (TauCeti.Vortex.vacuumOperator) is a first-order operator with constant real coefficients acting on fields x = (b₁, b₂, p, q). This file extends L₀ and its formal adjoint L₀* to fields whose four components are complex tempered distributions on ℂ, so that they act on Mathlib's L² Sobolev spaces H^s (TemperedDistribution.MemSobolev s 2) for every real s. The complex components are the complexification of the real fields: the coefficients of L₀ are real, and real fields are the ones whose components are real distributions. A field lies in H^s when each of its components does.

The Weitzenböck identities L₀* L₀ = L₀ L₀* = -Δ + 1 / 4 continue to hold on tempered distributions. With the resolvent (-Δ + 1 / 4)⁻¹ of the Laplacian on tempered distributions (TemperedDistribution.laplacianResolvent), they show that L₀ and L₀* are continuous linear automorphisms of the space of tempered fields, with inverses L₀⁻¹ = L₀* (-Δ + 1 / 4)⁻¹ and (L₀*)⁻¹ = L₀ (-Δ + 1 / 4)⁻¹. On the Sobolev scale, L₀ maps H^s to H^{s-1}, since it has order one, while L₀⁻¹ maps H^{s-1} back to H^s, since the resolvent gains two derivatives and L₀* loses one. Hence L₀ : H^s → H^{s-1} is bijective for every s, in particular H^k → H^{k-1} for every integer k, and a tempered field x lies in H^s exactly when L₀ x lies in H^{s-1}. On Schwartz fields the tempered operators agree with vacuumOperator and vacuumAdjoint.

      The inverses of the vacuum operator and its adjoint #

      The vacuum operator has trivial kernel on tempered fields.

      The adjoint of the vacuum operator has trivial kernel on tempered fields.

      The vacuum operator is invertible on tempered fields: L₀ as a continuous linear automorphism of the fields of tempered distributions. Its inverse is L₀⁻¹ = L₀* (-Δ + 1 / 4)⁻¹ (temperedVacuumOperatorEquiv_symm_apply).

      Instances For

        The adjoint of the vacuum operator is invertible on tempered fields: L₀* as a continuous linear automorphism of the fields of tempered distributions. Its inverse is (L₀*)⁻¹ = L₀ (-Δ + 1 / 4)⁻¹ (temperedVacuumAdjointEquiv_symm_apply).

          The Sobolev scale #

          The vacuum operator has order one: L₀ maps H^s to H^{s-1}.

          The adjoint of the vacuum operator has order one: L₀* maps H^s to H^{s-1}.

          The vacuum operator restricts to a bijection H^s → H^{s-1}: a tempered field x lies in H^s if and only if L₀ x lies in H^{s-1}. Since L₀ is bijective on tempered fields (temperedVacuumOperatorEquiv), it restricts to a bijection from H^s onto H^{s-1}, for every real s.

          The adjoint of the vacuum operator restricts to a bijection H^s → H^{s-1}: a tempered field y lies in H^s if and only if L₀* y lies in H^{s-1}. Since L₀* is bijective on tempered fields (temperedVacuumAdjointEquiv), it restricts to a bijection from H^s onto H^{s-1}, for every real s.
