Direct method in the calculus of variations
In the calculus of variations, a topic in mathematics, the direct method is a general method for constructing a proof of the existence of a minimizer for a given functional,〔Dacorogna, pp. 1–43.〕 introduced by Zaremba and David Hilbert around 1900. The method relies on methods of functional analysis and topology. As well as being used to prove the existence of a solution, direct methods may be used to compute the solution to desired accuracy.
== The method ==
The calculus of variations deals with functionals J:V \to \bar} = \mathbb \cup \. The main interest of the subject is to find ''minimizers'' for such functionals, that is, functions v \in V such that:J(v) \leq J(u)\forall u \in V.
The standard tool for obtaining necessary conditions for a function to be a minimizer is the Euler–Lagrange equation. But seeking a minimizer amongst functions satisfying these may lead to false conclusions if the existence of a minimizer is not established beforehand.
The functional J must be bounded from below to have a minimizer. This means
:\inf\ > -\infty.\,
This condition is not enough to know that a minimizer exists, but it shows the existence of a ''minimizing sequence'', that is, a sequence (u_n) in V such that J(u_n) \to \inf\.
The direct method may broken into the following steps
# Take a minimizing sequence (u_n) for J.
# Show that (u_n) admits some subsequence (u_), that converges to a u_0\in V with respect to a topology \tau on V.
# Show that J is sequentially lower semi-continuous with respect to the topology \tau.
To see that this shows the existence of a minimizer, consider the following characterization of sequentially lower-semicontinuous functions.
:The function J is sequentially lower-semicontinuous if
::\liminf_ J(u_n) \geq J(u_0) for any convergent sequence u_n \to u_0 in V.
The conclusions follows from
:\inf\ = \lim_ J(u_n) = \lim_ J(u_) \geq J(u_0) \geq \inf\,
in other words
:J(u_0) = \inf\.
