Suppose the claimed Poincare inequality with a partial Dirichlet boundary fails. There are $v_k\in V$ withAfter the normalization $w_k=v_k/\Vert v_k{\Vert }_{L^2(U)}$,Thus $(w_k)$ is bounded in the Sobolev space $H^1(U)$. The Rellich-Kondrashov compactness theorem and the corresponding compact embedding for a bounded $C^1$ domain give a subsequence that converges strongly in $L^2(U)$ and weakly in $H^1(U)$ to some $w$. The Sobolev space with a partial Dirichlet condition $V$ is a closed vector subspace, hence weakly closed, so $w\in V$. Moreover $\nabla w=0$, and connectedness of $U$ makes $w$ a constant function. Its trace vanishes on the positive-measure set ${\Gamma }_1$, so that constant is zero. This contradictsTherefore some $C_P$ satisfiesSince the reverse bound $\Vert \nabla v{\Vert }_2\le \Vert v{\Vert }_{H^1}$ is immediate,The gradient seminorm is a norm on $V$ because equality to zero would make $v$ a constant whose trace on ${\Gamma }_1$ is zero.

On the Hilbert space $V$, the form $B$ from part b obeysso it is a bounded bilinear form and a coercive bilinear form. The Cauchy-Schwarz inequality and the Poincare inequality with a partial Dirichlet boundary giveso $\ell$ is a bounded linear functional. The Lax-Milgram theorem now gives a unique weak solution $u\in V$. Taking $v=u$ in the weak identity yieldsand therefore

Let a positive-measure part ${\Gamma }_D$ of the boundary of a bounded connected domain carry a homogeneous Dirichlet boundary condition, and let the complementary part carry a homogeneous Neumann boundary condition. Onthe weak Poisson problem isThe Poincare inequality with a partial Dirichlet boundary makes the left side coercive, so the Lax-Milgram theorem gives a unique weak solution.
