hasDerivAt_exp_smul_apply gives the derivative of t↦exp⁡(tA)ft\mapsto\exp(tA)ft↦exp(tA)f as Aexp⁡(tA)fA\exp(tA)fAexp(tA)f for a bounded operator AAA on a complete real Hilbert space. If LLL satisfies ⟨Lf,f⟩≥0\langle Lf,f\rangle\ge0⟨Lf,f⟩≥0 for every fff, then antitone_normSq_exp_smul_neg states that t↦∥exp⁡(t(−L))f∥2t\mapsto\|\exp(t(-L))f\|^2t↦∥exp(t(−L))f∥2 is antitone on all of R\mathbb RR, and norm_exp_neg_smul_apply_le gives ∥exp⁡(−tL)f∥≤∥f∥\|\exp(-tL)f\|\le\|f\|∥exp(−tL)f∥≤∥f∥ for t≥0t\ge0t≥0. Self-adjointness of LLL is not assumed.

norm `‖u t‖²` has derivative `-2 ⟪L (u t), u t⟫ ≤ 0` and is therefore antitone on all of `ℝ`.

Only nonnegativity of `L` and symmetry of the real inner product are used; self-adjointness of
`L` is not assumed. -/

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.
