Energy estimates for bilinear form B.


(Energy estimates for the bilinear form B). Let $B$ be the bilinear form given by the definition ( Bilinear form B ) and MATH satisfy the definition ( Elliptic differential operator ). Then for any MATH MATH MATH where the constants $C_{1}>0$ , $C_{2}>0$ , $C_{3}\geq0$ are dependent only on the functions $a^{ij},b^{i},c$ and the set MATH .


We may add MATH to both sides and rewrite the second inequality as MATH


Based on the definition ( Bilinear form B ) of $B$ we directly estimate MATH Each of the integrals is dominated by MATH for some constant $C$ dependent only on $U$ . Hence, MATH

According to the definition ( Elliptic differential operator ) the matrix MATH is uniformly positive definite for all $x\in U$ . Hence, there exists a constant $\theta$ such that for any $x\in U$ MATH We integrate the above and use the definition ( Bilinear form B ) of $B$ : MATH

We use the formula ( Cauchy inequality with epsilon ) to estimate the second term: MATH and choose the $\varepsilon$ so that MATH We continue the estimation: MATH MATH where the constant MATH depends only on the functions $b^{i},c$ and the set $U$ .
