The first of the Gaussian drift primitives, , is an even function; the second, , is an odd function. Their derivatives follow by the fundamental theorem of calculus. In particular is the Dawson function, which behaves as . Since the error function tends to , the derivative of behaves as at either end. Integration therefore gives
Also on the left and on the right. The two inner overlaps are consequently
Expressing the outer expansions in requires the left constant and the right constant . Equating those constants gives the stated . This is exactly how a logarithmic overlap creates a switchback term: . Adding the outer solutions and removing these overlaps leaves the displayed additive composite expansion.
True. By the Weierstrass approximation theorem, choose polynomials with uniformly. Define by integrating exactly times and choose the integration constants so that
Then , and repeated use of the fundamental theorem of calculus gives
Every derivative therefore converges uniformly as required.
Let

Thus the one-half Hölder seminorm is at most .
Writing and using the zero weighted mean, for each we have
Since , the preceding estimate yields
Consequently the required inequality holds, for example, with
For , the Lipschitz condition gives
Choose so that . Then is a contraction mapping. The space is complete in the sup norm, and therefore also in the equivalent weighted norm.
For initial value , define
It has the same contraction constant. The Banach fixed-point theorem gives a unique fixed point , which satisfies the integral equation. The fundamental theorem of calculus then gives
Conversely every solution satisfies that integral equation, proving uniqueness on . This weighted-norm argument is the Bielecki norm method.
Write . Since has arithmetic mean zero,
and the pairwise-difference identity gives
First take smooth. Join to by changing one coordinate at a time and apply the Cauchy-Schwarz inequality:
For a one-dimensional slice , the fundamental theorem of calculus yields
Integrating the th summand over therefore gives at most . Hence
The density of smooth functions in a Sobolev space extends the estimate to every . Thus
Define . By the fundamental theorem of calculus, . The chain rule gives
Integrating from to and using , yields the change of variables formula
The argument also covers a decreasing because both integrals are oriented.
The preceding estimate makes equicontinuous, and
makes it uniformly bounded. The Arzelà-Ascoli theorem therefore supplies a subsequence converging uniformly to a continuous function . On every mesh interval,
including an endpoint by using the adjacent interval. Consequently uniformly along the same subsequence.
All and lie in one compact ball. The restriction of the continuous vector field to that ball is uniformly continuous, so uniformly. Passing to the limit in the defining equation gives
The fundamental theorem of calculus now makes differentiable and yields . This proves the required special case of the Peano existence theorem; uniqueness need not hold because was assumed continuous but not locally Lipschitz continuous.
Fix and a coordinate direction . The fundamental theorem of calculus gives
For sufficiently small , the points lie in a fixed compact set. The continuity of makes it uniformly continuous there, so the right-hand side converges to uniformly in . We may consequently pass the limit through the finite integral:
To prove continuity, if , joint continuity makes uniformly for once the lie in a compact neighbourhood of . Hence . This proves the stated differentiation under the integral sign result and the continuity of every partial derivative.
The one-dimensional Time-dependent Schrödinger equation for a wavefunction in a real potential is
Multiplying this equation by , multiplying its complex conjugate by , and subtracting gives the probability continuity equation
If and its first derivative decay sufficiently rapidly as , then the probability current vanishes at both ends. Integrating the continuity equation and using the fundamental theorem of calculus yields
This conservation of quantum probability is required by the Born rule: once a normalizable wavefunction has total probability one, its time evolution must preserve that normalization.
For the stated Gaussian wave packet, put . Since

The Gaussian integral then gives
which is independent of time, as required.
Since ,
The fundamental theorem of calculus and the chain rule then give
Thus is constant.
The volumetric flow rate is . Integration by parts, using finite and , gives
Because the stress magnitude is , change variables from to :
Therefore the required power is . The fundamental theorem of calculus gives the pipe form of the Weissenberg–Rabinowitsch equation:
Finally , so
A measured pressure-drop--flow-rate curve therefore recovers the wall viscosity without assuming a constitutive form.
It is enough to treat an increasing function; replacing by handles a decreasing one. Let be the common refinement of dissections and . Refinement raises lower Darboux sums and lowers upper ones, so
For the uniform dissection , monotonicity gives the telescoping difference
This can be made smaller than any , so the Riemann integrability criterion proves that is integrable.
The integral lies between the lower and upper sums, and the displayed sum in the question is the right-endpoint upper sum. Hence the generally valid sharp estimate is
The strict inequality printed in the question is false for arbitrary monotone functions: if for and , the two sides of (1) are both .
For the final claim, write
Since is continuous on a compact interval, it is uniformly continuous. Uniformly for ,
After the substitution , summing the uniform errors gives
The right-hand sum is a Riemann integral, so the fundamental theorem of calculus yields
Give the outward-normal-first boundary orientation. The Generalized Stokes theorem states that, for every compactly supported -form ,
Choose an oriented coordinate cover by charts into or the half-space , and choose a partition of unity subordinate to it. Since the family is locally finite and has compact support, only finitely many are nonzero. It is therefore legitimate to write both integrals as finite sums and prove the identity for a form supported in one chart.
In an interior chart the integral of an exact compactly supported top form is zero by the fundamental theorem of calculus. In a boundary chart write
Integrating coordinate by coordinate kills every tangential derivative. The normal derivative leaves precisely the restriction to , with the sign selected by the outward-normal-first convention. This is , proving the theorem.
Since , the fundamental theorem of calculus gives
Applying the Itô formula before the lifetime, the two drift terms cancel:
Thus is a continuous local martingale. The increasing function is the scale function of a one-dimensional diffusion.
Compact support and the fundamental theorem of calculus give, for every ,

Applying the same argument in the other coordinate gives
Multiplication and Fubini's theorem now yield
Finally, the Cauchy-Schwarz inequality gives
Thus the required estimate holds with ; it is the Ladyzhenskaya inequality in two dimensions.
A transformation of phase space is canonical when it preserves the symplectic form, or equivalently all Poisson brackets. For one degree of freedom this is
equivalently .
Suppose a type-two generating function for a canonical transformation defines

Thus . Uniform continuity of makes the difference from uniformly small over every interval of radius , so convergence is uniform on all of .
For a smooth and fixed , the fundamental theorem of calculus gives, for ,
Average this inequality over , use Holder inequality on that unit interval, raise to the power , and integrate in . This proves the estimate behind the W1p trace theorem on a half-space:
Use the Sobolev extension operator from part d, approximate in by smooth functions, and define as the limit of their restrictions to . The trace inequality makes this limit independent of the approximation and proves that
