Monotonicity of data fidelity and regularization penalty

For $0<\alpha <\beta$, choosing global minimizers of $D+\alpha J$ and $D+\beta J$ gives $J(u_{\beta })\le J(u_{\alpha })$ and $D(u_{\beta })\ge D(u_{\alpha })$. The decrease in penalty and increase in data misfit satisfy $\alpha \Delta J\le \Delta D\le \beta \Delta J$.
