Real positive index Sobolev spaces are Hilbert spaces












0












$begingroup$


I'm trying to prove that, for $kgeq 0$, Sobolev spaces defined in this way:



$H^k(mathbb{T})={fin L^2(mathbb{T}): sum_{n=-infty}^{+infty}(1+n^2)^k|hat{f}(n)|^2 < +infty}$



are Hilbert spaces over $mathbb{C}$ with respect to the inner product:



$(f,g)=sum_{n=-infty}^{+infty}(1+n^2)^khat{f}(n)overline{hat{g}(n)}$,



where $hat{f}$ is the Fourier transform of $f$ in $mathbb{T}=[-pi, pi)$.



I proved that $H^k(mathbb{T})$ is a vector space over $mathbb{C}$ $forall kgeq 0$ and that is an inner product space. Now I need to prove that $H^k(mathbb{T})$ is complete with respect to the distance induced by the norm $||cdot||=(cdot,cdot)^{1/2}$.



So I considered a Cauchy sequence ${f_m}_{minmathbb{N}}subseteq H^k(mathbb{T})$. This means in particular that, $forall ninmathbb{Z}$, the sequence ${hat{f_m}(n)}_{minmathbb{N}}$ is a Cauchy sequence in $mathbb{C}$, therefore it converges to some $g(n)inmathbb{C}$, because $mathbb{C}$ is complete. So I defined



$f(x):=sum_{n=-infty}^{+infty} g(n)e^{inx}$, $forall xinmathbb{T}$.



I managed to prove that $hat{f}(n)=g(n)$, $forall ninmathbb{Z}$, but now I'm finding troubles in showing that $fin H^k(mathbb{T})$ and that $f_mrightarrow f$ with respect to the norm in $H^k(mathbb{T})$.



Is my idea correct? How could I proceed?

    how do you know the definition of $f$ is valid? That is, how do you know the infinite sum converges? Moreover, how did you show that $hat{f}(n) = g(n)$ for all $n in mathbb{Z}$?

I would personally take the $L^2$ route, to avoid issues I brought up in my above comment. Note that $(f_m)_m$ is Cauchy in $L^2$: for any $epsilon > 0$ and for $m,l$ large enough, we have $$||f_m-f_l||_2^2 = sum_{n=-infty}^infty |widehat{f_m}-widehat{f_l}|^2 le sum_{n=-infty}^infty (1+n^2)^k |widehat{f_m}-widehat{f_l}|^2 le epsilon.$$ Since we know $L^2$ is complete, let $f$ be the $L^2$ limit of the $f_m$'s. It remains to show $f in H^k(mathbb{T})$ and $f_m to f$ in $H^k$. But these should just be some easy triangle inequality or Cauchy-Schwarz arguments.
