Restriction of arbitrary-order Sobolev functions #
Restriction to an open subdomain is a contraction on W^{k,p} for every natural order k
and every 1 ≤ p ≤ ∞. It commutes with the value, lower-order, and highest weak derivative
projections. This supplies localization for smooth approximation and interior estimates without
any boundary regularity assumption.
The construction uses W1p.restrictL at first order and restricts the successive weak derivative
fields through Mathlib's Lp.LpToLpOfMeasureLeSMul.

Restriction commutes with the Lᵖ value projection.
Restriction keeps the same value representative on the smaller domain.

Restriction commutes with the highest weak derivative projection.
Use rw with this lemma: simp does not match its dependently indexed left-hand side.
Forgetting the highest derivative commutes with restriction.

Restriction does not increase the Sobolev norm.
The restriction operator has norm at most one.
Restricting to the original domain is the identity.
Restricting along two inclusions agrees with restricting along their composite.
At order zero, Sobolev restriction is Mathlib's Lᵖ restriction.
At order one, Sobolev restriction agrees with the first-order API.
