Set , and . Then , , and the sharper uniform power gain for elliptic solutions givesThe Moser product on geometric radii converges becauseThus every is at most . Since , its norms are also bounded by . If on a set of positive measure in , these norms are at least , tending to , a contradiction. HenceThis is the required Moser iteration estimate, with a finite constant depending only on and . The weak-test truncation argument in the preceding solution makes the conclusion valid for locally weak solutions with and measurable uniformly elliptic coefficients. No differentiability of or unproved smooth approximation of solutions is required.
