Prove or disprove the compactness of an operator
Consider $X=L^{2}(0,\pi, \mathbb{R})$.
Let $X_{\frac{1}{2}}$ be the domain of $(\Delta)^\frac{1}{2}$ where $\Delta$ is the laplacien operator.
We define the operator $K:C([0,a],X_{\frac{1}{2}})\...

Time regularity of traces
I have a question about the time regularity of the traces in one dimension.
Suppose I have a function space $$X = C^1([0,T];L^2(0,1))\cap C([0,T],H^1(0,1))$$ and I define an operator $E$ on $X$ by $(...
