SUMMARY

Schwartz spaces serve as an intermediate framework for understanding partial differential equations (PDEs), but they are not universally applicable. While some PDEs can be modeled using Schwartz spaces, the general consensus is that not all functions meet the necessary derivative properties required by Schwartz spaces. Specifically, the Navier-Stokes equations can be analyzed within the context of Schwartz spaces if the initial data belongs to the Schwartz Class. This discussion highlights the limitations and specific use cases of Schwartz spaces in PDE modeling.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of partial differential equations (PDEs)
  • Familiarity with Schwartz spaces and their properties
  • Knowledge of Navier-Stokes equations
  • Basic concepts of functional analysis
NEXT STEPS
  • Research the properties of Infra-Schwartz spaces and their applications
  • Study the relationship between Schwartz spaces and reflexive spaces
  • Explore the implications of using Schwartz Class initial data in PDE analysis
  • Investigate alternative function spaces for modeling nonlinear turbulence in PDEs
USEFUL FOR

Mathematicians, physicists, and researchers focused on the theoretical aspects of PDEs, particularly those interested in the application of Schwartz spaces in modeling physical systems.

Is there a hole in knowledge as to the origins of PDEs?

If there is a void, is Schwartz space a suitable basis?

Schwartz spaces are intermediate between general spaces and nuclear spaces.
Infra-Schwartz spaces are intermediate between Schwartz spaces and reflexive spaces.

I learned all about Schwartz space in a book called Nuclear and Conuclear Spaces, Herni Hogbe-Nlend, Chapter 1.
 
I don't understand what you mean by the "basis" or "origins" of PDEs. What, exactly are you looking for?
 
PDEs model physical systems.
All systems are subjected to nonlinear turbulence.
I am wondering if Schwartz space is suitable for modeling general PDEs.
 
I would wager the general answer is no since a Schwartz space requires a special property of a function's derivative that not all functions may have. If you're asking can you use a Schwartz space for some PDE's, the answer is yes.
 
Do you know if Schwartz space fits the Navier-Stokes equations?

I'm not an expert regarding PDE's or methods dealing with them, so I don't want to give you a wrong answer but I'll give a minimum answer that you probably know if you are asking these questions. I don't believe Navier-Stokes must be in a Schwartz Space unless the initial data is a Schwartz Class. So with that said if you want to look at the N-S equation via a Schwartz Class you can do so. You can probably even extract that information to gather information on global properties for initial Schwartz Class data.
 
I have no idea what you're trying to get at besides advertising for a book and author.
