On constructing the canonical boundary operator for a given differential operator

Given an $n\times n$ matrix $$X=\begin{pmatrix} x_{11} & x_{12} & \cdots & x_{1n} \\ x_{21} & x_{22} & \cdots & x_{2n} \\ \vdots & \vdots & \ddots & \vdots \\ x_{n1}...

On a deceptively tricky calculus problem

Motivation for this question: If the operators $B_i'$ satisfy an inequality, prove that $B_1'+\dots B_n'$ also satisfies the same inequality Let $A$ be a non-constant operator acting on $C^...

How to define the Sobolev quotient space $H^s(Γ)/{\mathbb R}$

Let $\Gamma$ be the boundary of a Lipschitz domain $\Omega\subset \mathbb R^3$. Denote by $H^s(\Gamma)$ the usual scalar Sobolev space for $s\in\mathbb R$. I want to know the definition of the ...

Does this integral have a closed form solution? [closed]

Let $x,y\in \mathbb{R}^2$, $B_r(0)=\{x||x|\leq r\}$. Does the following function (denoted as $f(r)$) have a closed form expression? $$f(r)=\int_{B_r(0)}\int_{B_r(0)}\ln|x-y|dxdy.$$

Derivatives of $G_h(u):=\int_0^{2\pi} h(\cos t)h(\cos(t - \arccos(u)))dt$ when $h$ is positive-homogeneous

Let $h:\mathbb R \to \mathbb R$ be a continuous which is positive-homogeneous of order $p \ge 1$, and define $G_h:[-1,1] \to \mathbb R$ by $$ G_h(u):=\int_0^{2\pi} h(\cos t)h(\cos(t - \arccos(u)))dt. $...

Lower bound of the nth derivative of function

I need to prove that there exists $a> 0$ and $n_0\in\mathbb N$ such that $$\forall n> n_0,\quad \sup\limits_{|x|\leq a} |f^{(n)}(x)| \geq (n!)^{\frac 32}.$$ Where $f$ is defined by $f(x)=\exp(-...

What is the standard terminology for the quantity $\|\nabla f\|_{L^2(\mu)} := \sqrt{\int_{\mathbb R^d}\|\nabla f(x)\|^2d\mu(x)}$?

Let $f:\mathbb R^d \to \mathbb R$ be a continuously differentiable function and let $\mu$ be a probability measure on $\mathbb R^d$. Question. What is the standard teminology for the quantity $\|\...

Is it true that $\nabla_x \int_0^\infty f(t,0) dt = 0 \implies \nabla_x f(t,0) = 0 \ \forall t>0$? [closed]

Let $f:\mathbb R_+ \times \mathbb R^N \to \mathbb R$ and $$F(x) = \int_0^\infty f(t,x) dt.$$ If $\nabla_x F(0) = 0$ do we have that $\nabla_x f(t,0) = 0$ for all $t \in \mathbb R_+$? If not, which ...

Monotonicity of the integral

Let $R(x)$ be the residual function associated to the normal probability density, i.e. $$R(x)~=~\int_x^{+\infty}\frac{1}{\sqrt{2\pi}}e^{-\frac{y^2}{2}}dy, \mbox{ for all } x\in R.$$ Define $$\phi(...

About preserving real-rootedness of multivariable polynomials

Say $f_i(z_1,z_2,..,z_m)$ are polynomials real rooted in the $z$s for a bunch of polynomials indexed by $i$. When can one say that $\sum_{i} p_i f_i(z_1,z_2,..,z_m)$ is also real rooted? If ...

A functional equality

I don't know if this is known, but I was fiddling around with this equality : $$f:(-1,1)\to (-1,1)\quad \text{satisfies}\quad(f(z)+1)^s=\sum_{j=0}^{\infty}\dbinom{s}{j}f(z^k) \quad \forall z\in (-1,1),...
