For each with , a sufficient condition is on every finite interval. The Minkowski integral inequality and measure preservation give the finite-time Lp bound for Hamiltonian transport
For all finite simultaneously, impose, for example, . The elementary bound and the Holder inequality in time show that its norms are locally integrable for every . If a bounded initial value is also required, the same assumption controls the endpoint by the previous part.
A concrete stronger condition, compatible with a nonzero source, is that on each finite time interval the source has a common compact support in . Its continuity then makes it bounded on that compact cylinder, so all these integrability conditions hold. A nonzero smooth source compactly supported in phase space supplies examples.
For the globally invertible Hamiltonian flow from (a), the general characteristic formula is
Every preserves Lebesgue measure, by (b). Thus composition with it is an isometry of each Lp space. The Minkowski integral inequality gives
Applying the Minkowski inequality also in time yields the finite-time Lp bound for Hamiltonian transport:
The smoothness assumptions allow the characteristic construction; the norm estimate itself only uses the Lp space data and volume preservation.
For a concrete failure on infinite time, choose , , and
This is smooth, time independent and in every finite Lp space; it is invariant under the isotropic harmonic oscillator flow. Therefore the solution grows linearly:
This invariant-source secular growth in Hamiltonian transport supplies the counterexample even with zero initial data.
