How statement and proof provenance work

The first chip identifies the source of the statement or construction; the second identifies the source of its local proof or verification.

  • Literature-sourced: the exact statement appears in a cited source; only wording and notation differ.
  • AI-adapted: a semantically identical restatement of literature-sourced material, modulo indexing, notation, and boundary cases adopted by the library.
  • AI-generated: a genuinely novel statement formulated by AI, with no source for the claim itself.

These labels describe origin, not correctness: citations and verification chips remain separate evidence.

Lemma 3.2: compactness of the remainder

PDF p. 8: Lemma 3.2; PDF p. 9: proof (a)–(d)

Statement

Assume the Axiom of Choice and hypothesis (H): n≥2, the nonempty compact obstacle Θ⊂Rn has smooth boundary, its exterior Ω=Rn∖Θ is connected, and it is non-trapping, as specified in Exterior and truncated obstacle domains and Non-trapping obstacle. Let T>0 and σ∈[−2,2). If vj,0⇀v0 weakly in the Dirichlet spectral space HDσ(Ω), then Qσ(vj,0−v0)→0, where the scale, weak convergence and remainder are as in def-se-compact-remainder and Weak convergence notation in normed state spaces.

In the exceptional range −1<σ<0, the indices in the remainder are τ=σ+2∈(1,2) and ρ=τ−1∈(0,1).

Facts & Assumptions

[F1]

For k=0 when σ≥0 and k=1 when σ<0, put τ=σ+2k. The remainder is Qσ(w)=∫0T∥ψRkW(t)w∥HDρ2 dt, with ρ=σ+1 for −1<σ<0 and ρ=0 otherwise. Here R=(I−ΔD)−1, W(t)=eitΔD, and ψ is the specified smooth compactly supported cutoff Regularized lower-order observation remainder.

[F2]

The map Rk:HDσ→HDτ is an isometry, commutes with W(t), and W(t) is strongly continuous and unitary on HDτ Scale isometries and free Schrödinger evolution. Weak convergence means convergence under every bounded scalar-linear functional Weak convergence notation in normed state spaces.

[F3]

Under the stated geometry and Choice, a bounded weakly null sequence in HDτ, 0≤τ<2, has localized free evolutions converging strongly to zero in L2(0,T;L2(Ω)) Localized free-flow bounds and compactness mechanism. This conclusion uses compactness on a bounded localization, not a global compact Sobolev embedding on Ω.

[F4]

Multiplication by ψ is bounded on HDτ for 0≤τ<2 Endpoint multiplier bounds extended to negative spectral orders. If 0<ρ<τ, a sequence uniformly bounded in L2(0,T;HDτ) and converging to zero in L2(0,T;L2) also converges to zero in L2(0,T;HDρ) Spectral interpolation and lower-order absorption.

[F5]

A weakly convergent sequence in a real or complex normed space is norm bounded under the real dominated-extension principle HB and Countable Choice Weakly convergent sequences are norm bounded. Under the assumed Axiom of Choice, the real Hahn–Banach dominated-extension theorem supplies precisely this HB premise Hahn-Banach dominated extension theorem for real vector spaces. Countable Choice follows by applying Choice to countable families of nonempty sets The Axiom of Choice.

[F6]

The spaces L2(0,T;X) use strongly measurable Banach-valued maps modulo equality almost everywhere, with norm (∫0T∥f(t)∥X2 dt)1/2 and Lebesgue time measure Continuous and mixed time-space function spaces.

Goal: Prove Qσ(vj,0−v0)→0.

1.1givenF1F2F5

Set wj=vj,0−v0 and yj,0=Rkwj. The sequence wj is weakly null. For every bounded scalar-linear functional ℓ on HDτ, the composition ℓRk is bounded on HDσ; hence yj,0⇀0 in HDτ. By weak boundedness and the isometry, there is M<∞ such that ∥yj,0∥HDτ≤M for all j. The case definitions give 0≤τ<2.

2.1F2F3F6step 1.1

Put yj(t)=W(t)yj,0. The localized compactness result applies to this bounded weakly null sequence and yields ψyj→0 in L2(0,T;L2(Ω)). By commutation, ψyj(t)=ψRkW(t)wj.

3.1F1F6step 2.1

If ρ=0, the definition of Qσ identifies it with ∥ψyj∥L2(0,T;L2)2, which tends to zero. This includes σ=−2, σ=−1, and all 0≤σ<2.

4.1F1F2F4F6step 1.1step 2.1∎

Otherwise −1<σ<0, so τ=σ+2∈(1,2) and ρ=τ−1∈(0,τ). Unitarity and the multiplier bound give sup⁡j,t∥ψyj(t)∥HDτ≤CM. Strong continuity and bounded multiplication give strong measurability, and the finite time interval gives a uniform L2(0,T;HDτ) bound. Applying the interpolation convergence statement to step 2.1 gives ψyj→0 in L2(0,T;HDρ). Its squared norm is Qσ(wj), so the desired limit holds in this case as well.
