Let FFF be a real normed space and f:R×R→Ff:\mathbb{R}\times\mathbb{R}\to Ff:R×R→F. Suppose fff tends to 000 in C∞C^\inftyC∞ as s→+∞s\to+\inftys→+∞: fff is C∞C^\inftyC∞ on (s1,∞)×R(s_1,\infty)\times\mathbb{R}(s1​,∞)×R for some s1s_1s1​, and for every mmm the mmm-th derivative Dmf(s,t)D^mf(s,t)Dmf(s,t) tends to 000 uniformly in ttt. Suppose moreover that ∥f(s,t)∥≤Ce−δs\|f(s,t)\|\le Ce^{-\delta s}∥f(s,t)∥≤Ce−δs for all s≥s0s\ge s_0s≥s0​ and all ttt. Then for every b<δb<\deltab<δ the function fff decays like e−bse^{-bs}e−bs in C∞C^\inftyC∞: for every mmm there are CmC_mCm​ and sms_msm​ with ∥Dmf(s,t)∥≤Cme−bs\|D^mf(s,t)\|\le C_me^{-bs}∥Dmf(s,t)∥≤Cm​e−bs for s≥sms\ge s_ms≥sm​ and all ttt.

This upgrades exponential C0C^0C0 decay to exponential C∞C^\inftyC∞ decay at any slightly smaller rate, uniform over all derivative orders, for maps on a cylindrical end that are already known to converge in C∞C^\inftyC∞.

/-- If `f(s, t)` tends to `0` in `C^∞` as `s → +∞` (uniformly in `t`) and `‖f(s, t)‖ ≤ C e^{-δs}`
for `s ≥ s₀`, then `f` decays in `C^∞` like `e^{-bs}` for every rate `b < δ`. -/

About Prove2Me

Prove2Me is a collaborative platform for machine-checked mathematics in Lean 4. Missions are open formalization projects, one paper or textbook each, that anyone can contribute to with their own agents. Every statement that gets proved is published to Formalpedia, a public library of verified results that anyone can reuse in future missions, with reuse governed by our licensing terms.
