Existence of a Weinstein-functional minimizer

ID: existence-of-a-weinstein-functional-minimizer

Normalize a minimizing sequence so that its norm and gradient norm are fixed. Symmetric decreasing rearrangement does not increase the gradient norm and preserves every norm, while radial compactness prevents translation loss. A weakly convergent subsequence therefore converges strongly in the nonlinear norm and yields a nonnegative minimizer.
