  • FUNCTIONAL ANALYSIS 1. Banach and Hilbert Spaces in What
    FUNCTIONAL ANALYSIS PIOTR HAJLASZ 1. Banach and Hilbert spaces In what follows K will denote R of C. Definition. A normed space is a pair (X, k · k), where X is a linear space over K and k · k : X → [0, ∞) is a function, called a norm, such that (1) kx + yk ≤ kxk + kyk for all x, y ∈ X; (2) kαxk = |α|kxk for all x ∈ X and α ∈ K; (3) kxk = 0 if and only if x = 0. Since kx − yk ≤ kx − zk + kz − yk for all x, y, z ∈ X, d(x, y) = kx − yk defines a metric in a normed space. In what follows normed paces will always be regarded as metric spaces with respect to the metric d. A normed space is called a Banach space if it is complete with respect to the metric d. Definition. Let X be a linear space over K (=R or C). The inner product (scalar product) is a function h·, ·i : X × X → K such that (1) hx, xi ≥ 0; (2) hx, xi = 0 if and only if x = 0; (3) hαx, yi = αhx, yi; (4) hx1 + x2, yi = hx1, yi + hx2, yi; (5) hx, yi = hy, xi, for all x, x1, x2, y ∈ X and all α ∈ K. As an obvious corollary we obtain hx, y1 + y2i = hx, y1i + hx, y2i, hx, αyi = αhx, yi , Date: February 12, 2009. 1 2 PIOTR HAJLASZ for all x, y1, y2 ∈ X and α ∈ K. For a space with an inner product we define kxk = phx, xi . Lemma 1.1 (Schwarz inequality).

  • Using Functional Analysis and Sobolev Spaces to Solve Poisson’S Equation
    USING FUNCTIONAL ANALYSIS AND SOBOLEV SPACES TO SOLVE POISSON'S EQUATION YI WANG Abstract. We study Banach and Hilbert spaces with an eye to- wards defining weak solutions to elliptic PDE. Using Lax-Milgram we prove that weak solutions to Poisson's equation exist under certain conditions. Contents 1. Introduction 1 2. Banach spaces 2 3. Weak topology, weak star topology and reflexivity 6 4. Lower semicontinuity 11 5. Hilbert spaces 13 6. Sobolev spaces 19 References 21 1. Introduction We will discuss the following problem in this paper: let Ω be an open and connected subset in R and f be an L2 function on Ω, is there a solution to Poisson's equation (1) −∆u = f? From elementary partial differential equations class, we know if Ω = R, we can solve Poisson's equation using the fundamental solution to Laplace's equation. However, if we just take Ω to be an open and connected set, the above method is no longer useful. In addition, for arbitrary Ω and f, a C2 solution does not always exist. Therefore, instead of finding a strong solution, i.e., a C2 function which satisfies (1), we integrate (1) against a test function φ (a test function is a Date: September 28, 2016. 1 2 YI WANG smooth function compactly supported in Ω), integrate by parts, and arrive at the equation Z Z 1 (2) rurφ = fφ, 8φ 2 Cc (Ω): Ω Ω So intuitively we want to find a function which satisfies (2) for all test functions and this is the place where Hilbert spaces come into play.

A bilinear form is a map B : V V C that is linear in each entry when the other entry is held fixed, so that × → B(αx, y) = αB(x, y)= B(x, αy) B(x + x ,y) = B(x ,y)+ B(x ,y) for all α F, x V, y V 1 2 1 2 ∈ k ∈ k ∈ B(x, y1 + y2) = B(x, y1)+ B(x, y2) (This of course forces B(x, y)=0 if either input is zero.) We say B is symmetric if B(x, y)= B(y, x), for all x, y and antisymmetric if B(x, y)= B(y, x). Similarly a multilinear form (aka a k-linear form , or a tensor− of rank k) is a map B : V V F that is linear in each entry when the other entries are held fixed. ×···×(0,k) → We write V = V ∗ . V ∗ for the set of k-linear forms. The reason we use V ∗ here rather than V , and⊗ the⊗ rationale for the “tensor product” notation, will gradually become clear. The set V ∗ V ∗ of bilinear forms on V becomes a vector space over F if we define ⊗ 1. Zero element: B(x, y) = 0 for all x, y V ; ∈ 2.

  • MATH 421/510 Assignment 3
    MATH 421/510 Assignment 3 Suggested Solutions February 2018 1. Let H be a Hilbert space. (a) Prove the polarization identity: 1 hx; yi = (kx + yk2 − kx − yk2 + ikx + iyk2 − ikx − iyk2): 4 Proof. By direct calculation, kx + yk2 − kx − yk2 = 2hx; yi + 2hy; xi: Similarly, kx + iyk2 − kx − iyk2 = 2hx; iyi − 2hy; ixi = −2ihx; yi + 2ihy; xi: Addition gives kx + yk2−kx − yk2+ikx + iyk2−ikx − iyk2 = 2hx; yi+2hy; xi+2hx; yi−2hy; xi = 4hx; yi: (b) If there is another Hilbert space H0, a linear map from H to H0 is unitary if and only if it is isometric and surjective. Proof. We take the definition from the book that an operator is unitary if and only if it is invertible and hT x; T yi = hx; yi for all x; y 2 H. A unitary operator T is isometric and surjective by definition. On the other hand, assume it is isometric and surjective. We first show that T preserves the inner product: If the scalar field is C, by the polarization identity, 1 hT x; T yi = (kT x + T yk2 − kT x − T yk2 + ikT x + iT yk2 − ikT x − iT yk2) 4 1 = (kx + yk2 − kx − yk2 + ikx + iyk2 − ikx − iyk2) = hx; yi; 4 where in the second equation we used the linearity of T and the assumption that T is isometric. 1 If the scalar field is R, then we use the real version of the polarization identity: 1 hx; yi = (kx + yk2 − kx − yk2) 4 The remaining computation is similar to the complex case.

  • Hilbert Space Methods for Partial Differential Equations
    Hilbert Space Methods for Partial Differential Equations R. E. Showalter Electronic Journal of Differential Equations Monograph 01, 1994. i Preface This book is an outgrowth of a course which we have given almost pe- riodically over the last eight years. It is addressed to beginning graduate students of mathematics, engineering, and the physical sciences. Thus, we have attempted to present it while presupposing a minimal background: the reader is assumed to have some prior acquaintance with the concepts of “lin- ear” and “continuous” and also to believe L2 is complete. An undergraduate mathematics training through Lebesgue integration is an ideal background but we dare not assume it without turning away many of our best students. The formal prerequisite consists of a good advanced calculus course and a motivation to study partial differential equations. A problem is called well-posed if for each set of data there exists exactly one solution and this dependence of the solution on the data is continuous. To make this precise we must indicate the space from which the solution is obtained, the space from which the data may come, and the correspond- ing notion of continuity. Our goal in this book is to show that various types of problems are well-posed. These include boundary value problems for (stationary) elliptic partial differential equations and initial-boundary value problems for (time-dependent) equations of parabolic, hyperbolic, and pseudo-parabolic types. Also, we consider some nonlinear elliptic boundary value problems, variational or uni-lateral problems, and some methods of numerical approximation of solutions. We briefly describe the contents of the various chapters.

  • 3. Hilbert Spaces
    3. Hilbert spaces In this section we examine a special type of Banach spaces. We start with some algebraic preliminaries. Definition. Let K be either R or C, and let Let X and Y be vector spaces over K. A map φ : X × Y → K is said to be K-sesquilinear, if • for every x ∈ X, then map φx : Y 3 y 7−→ φ(x, y) ∈ K is linear; • for every y ∈ Y, then map φy : X 3 y 7−→ φ(x, y) ∈ K is conjugate linear, i.e. the map X 3 x 7−→ φy(x) ∈ K is linear. In the case K = R the above properties are equivalent to the fact that φ is bilinear. Remark 3.1. Let X be a vector space over C, and let φ : X × X → C be a C-sesquilinear map. Then φ is completely determined by the map Qφ : X 3 x 7−→ φ(x, x) ∈ C. This can be see by computing, for k ∈ {0, 1, 2, 3} the quantity k k k k k k k Qφ(x + i y) = φ(x + i y, x + i y) = φ(x, x) + φ(x, i y) + φ(i y, x) + φ(i y, i y) = = φ(x, x) + ikφ(x, y) + i−kφ(y, x) + φ(y, y), which then gives 3 1 X (1) φ(x, y) = i−kQ (x + iky), ∀ x, y ∈ X. 4 φ k=0 The map Qφ : X → C is called the quadratic form determined by φ. The identity (1) is referred to as the Polarization Identity.

The study of linear transformations alone is incapable of handling the notions of orthogonality in geometry, optimization in many variables, Fourier series and so on and so forth. In optimization theory, the relevance of quadratic forms is all the more. The concept of dot product is a particular instance of a bilinear form. Quadratic forms, in particular, play an all important role in deciding the maxima-minima of functions of several variables.

  • Notes for Functional Analysis
    Notes for Functional Analysis Wang Zuoqin (typed by Xiyu Zhai) November 13, 2015 1 Lecture 18 1.1 Characterizations of reflexive spaces Recall that a Banach space X is reflexive if the inclusion X ⊂ X∗∗ is a Banach space isomorphism. The following theorem of Kakatani give us a very useful creteria of reflexive spaces: Theorem 1.1. A Banach space X is reflexive iff the closed unit ball B = fx 2 X : kxk ≤ 1g is weakly compact. Proof. First assume X is reflexive. Then B is the closed unit ball in X∗∗. By the Banach- Alaoglu theorem, B is compact with respect to the weak-∗ topology of X∗∗. But by definition, in this case the weak-∗ topology on X∗∗ coincides with the weak topology on X (since both are the weakest topology on X = X∗∗ making elements in X∗ continuous). So B is compact with respect to the weak topology on X. Conversly suppose B is weakly compact. Let ι : X,! X∗∗ be the canonical inclusion map that sends x to evx. Then we've seen that ι preserves the norm, and thus is continuous (with respect to the norm topologies). By PSet 8-1 Problem 3, ∗∗ ι : X(weak) ,! X(weak) is continuous. Since the weak-∗ topology on X∗∗ is weaker than the weak topology on X∗∗ (since X∗∗∗ = (X∗)∗∗ ⊃ X∗. OH MY GOD!) we thus conclude that ∗∗ ι : X(weak) ,! X(weak-∗) is continuous. But by assumption B ⊂ X(weak) is compact, so the image ι(B) is compact in ∗∗ X(weak-∗). In particular, ι(B) is weak-∗ closed.

  • The Riesz Representation Theorem
    The Riesz Representation Theorem MA 466 Kurt Bryan Let H be a Hilbert space over lR or Cl, and T a bounded linear functional on H (a bounded operator from H to the field, lR or Cl, over which H is defined). The following is called the Riesz Representation Theorem: Theorem 1 If T is a bounded linear functional on a Hilbert space H then there exists some g 2 H such that for every f 2 H we have T (f) =< f; g > : Moreover, kT k = kgk (here kT k denotes the operator norm of T , while kgk is the Hilbert space norm of g. Proof: Let's assume that H is separable for now. It's not really much harder to prove for any Hilbert space, but the separable case makes nice use of the ideas we developed regarding Fourier analysis. Also, let's just work over lR. Since H is separable we can choose an orthonormal basis ϕj, j ≥ 1, for 2 H. Let T be a bounded linear functionalP and set aj = T (ϕj). Choose f H, n let cj =< f; ϕj >, and define fn = j=1 cjϕj. Since the ϕj form a basis we know that kf − fnk ! 0 as n ! 1. Since T is linear we have Xn T (fn) = ajcj: (1) j=1 Since T is bounded, say with norm kT k < 1, we have jT (f) − T (fn)j ≤ kT kkf − fnk: (2) Because kf − fnk ! 0 as n ! 1 we conclude from equations (1) and (2) that X1 T (f) = lim T (fn) = ajcj: (3) n!1 j=1 In fact, the sequence aj must itself be square-summable.
