Let $u_n$ be a sequence with $u_n \in L^2((0,T);H^{1,2}(\Omega))$ and $\frac{\partial u_n}{\partial t} \in L^2((0,T);H^{1,2}(\Omega)^*)$. Then, how could one get a subsequence of $u_n$ that strongly ...

A variation of the Riesz Lemma
Given a normed space $X$, a closed proper subspace $Y$ and $\alpha\in (0,1)$, the Riesz Lemma states that there is $x\in X$ such that $\|x\|=1$ and $d(x,Y)>\alpha$. Observe that also $d(-x,Y)=d(x,Y)...

Is Toeplitz operator on the Bergman space bounded iff its symbol is bounded?
It is fairly well known that if $T_\varphi$ is a Toeplitz operator on the Hardy-Hilbert space, then $\lVert T_\varphi \rVert = \lVert \varphi \rVert _{\infty}$.
Now, if $\varphi \in L^\infty (\mathbb ...

Why $\int_{S^{n-1}} |\hat{f}(w)|^2d\sigma(w) < \infty$?
Let $f\in L^p(\Bbb R^n)$ and $S^{n-1}$ be the Unit sphere.
Why
$\int_{S^{n-1}} |\hat{f}(w)|^2d\sigma(w)<\infty$ when $1<p<2$.
$\hat{f}$ is the Fourier transform fora function f.
