 Tikhonov regularization with a coercive penalty operator

For bounded linear operators between Hilbert spaces with $\Vert Bu\Vert \ge \beta \Vert u\Vert$ and $\beta >0$, the operator $K^{\ast }K+\alpha B^{\ast }B$ is coercive and invertible for $\alpha >0$. The reconstruction uniquely minimizes $\Vert Ku-f{\Vert }^2/2+\alpha \Vert Bu{\Vert }^2/2$. Testing its normal equation for coercive Tikhonov regularization by $u$ gives $\Vert R_{\alpha }\Vert \le 1/(2\beta \sqrt{\alpha })$. If $K$ is injective, exact-data consistency and $\alpha \to 0$, $\delta /\sqrt{\alpha }\to 0$ give norm convergence to $K^{†}f$.
