Continuous partition of unity

In this file we define PartitionOfUnity (ι X : Type*) [TopologicalSpace X] (s : Set X := univ) to be a continuous partition of unity on s indexed by ι. More precisely, f : PartitionOfUnity ι X s is a collection of continuous functions f i : C(X, ℝ), i : ι, such that

• the supports of f i form a locally finite family of sets;
• each f i is nonnegative;
• ∑ᶠ i, f i x = 1 for all x ∈ s;
• ∑ᶠ i, f i x ≤ 1 for all x : X.

In the case s = univ the last assumption follows from the previous one but it is convenient to have this assumption in the case s ≠ univ.

We also define a bump function covering, BumpCovering (ι X : Type*) [TopologicalSpace X] (s : Set X := univ), to be a collection of functions f i : C(X, ℝ), i : ι, such that

• the supports of f i form a locally finite family of sets;
• each f i is nonnegative;
• for each x ∈ s there exists i : ι such that f i y = 1 in a neighborhood of x.

The term is motivated by the smooth case.

If f is a bump function covering indexed by a linearly ordered type, then g i x = f i x * ∏ᶠ j < i, (1 - f j x) is a partition of unity, see BumpCovering.toPartitionOfUnity. Note that only finitely many terms 1 - f j x are not equal to one, so this product is well-defined.

Note that g i x = ∏ᶠ j ≤ i, (1 - f j x) - ∏ᶠ j < i, (1 - f j x), so most terms in the sum ∑ᶠ i, g i x cancel, and we get ∑ᶠ i, g i x = 1 - ∏ᶠ i, (1 - f i x), and the latter product equals zero because one of f i x is equal to one.

We say that a partition of unity or a bump function covering f is subordinate to a family of sets U i, i : ι, if the closure of the support of each f i is included in U i. We use Urysohn's Lemma to prove that a locally finite open covering of a normal topological space admits a subordinate bump function covering (hence, a subordinate partition of unity), see BumpCovering.exists_isSubordinate_of_locallyFinite. If X is a paracompact space, then any open covering admits a locally finite refinement, hence it admits a subordinate bump function covering and a subordinate partition of unity, see BumpCovering.exists_isSubordinate.

We also provide two slightly more general versions of these lemmas, BumpCovering.exists_isSubordinate_of_locallyFinite_of_prop and BumpCovering.exists_isSubordinate_of_prop, to be used later in the construction of a smooth partition of unity.

Implementation notes

Most (if not all) books only define a partition of unity of the whole space. However, quite a few proofs only deal with f i such that tsupport (f i) meets a specific closed subset, and it is easier to formalize these proofs if we don't have other functions right away.

We use WellOrderingRel j i instead of j < i in the definition of BumpCovering.toPartitionOfUnity to avoid a [LinearOrder ι] assumption. While WellOrderingRel j i is a well order, not only a strict linear order, we never use this property.

structure PartitionOfUnity (ι : Type u_1) (X : Type u_2) [TopologicalSpace X] (s : Set X := Set.univ) : Type (max u_1 u_2)

A continuous partition of unity on a set s : Set X is a collection of continuous functions f i such that

• the supports of f i form a locally finite family of sets, i.e., for every point x : X there exists a neighborhood U ∋ x such that all but finitely many functions f i are zero on U;
• the functions f i are nonnegative;
• the sum ∑ᶠ i, f i x is equal to one for every x ∈ s and is less than or equal to one otherwise.

If X is a normal paracompact space, then PartitionOfUnity.exists_isSubordinate guarantees that for every open covering U : Set (Set X) of s there exists a partition of unity that is subordinate to U.

structure BumpCovering (ι : Type u_1) (X : Type u_2) [TopologicalSpace X] (s : Set X := Set.univ) : Type (max u_1 u_2)

A BumpCovering ι X s is an indexed family of functions f i, i : ι, such that

• the supports of f i form a locally finite family of sets, i.e., for every point x : X there exists a neighborhood U ∋ x such that all but finitely many functions f i are zero on U;
• for all i, x we have 0 ≤ f i x ≤ 1;
• each point x ∈ s belongs to the interior of {x | f i x = 1} for some i.

One of the main use cases for a BumpCovering is to define a PartitionOfUnity, see BumpCovering.toPartitionOfUnity, but some proofs can directly use a BumpCovering instead of a PartitionOfUnity.

If X is a normal paracompact space, then BumpCovering.exists_isSubordinate guarantees that for every open covering U : Set (Set X) of s there exists a BumpCovering of s that is subordinate to U.

  the supports of the underlying functions are a locally finite family of sets

• nonneg' : 0 ≤ self.toFun

  the functions are non-negative

• le_one' : self.toFun ≤ 1

  the functions are each at most one

• eventuallyEq_one' (x : X) : x ∈ s → ∃ (i : ι), ⇑(self.toFun i) =ᶠ[nhds x] 1

  Each point x ∈ s belongs to the interior of {x | f i x = 1} for some i.

def BumpCovering.toPOUFun {ι : Type u} {X : Type v} [TopologicalSpace X] {s : Set X} (f : BumpCovering ι X s) (i : ι) (x : X) : ℝ

Partition of unity defined by a BumpCovering. We use this auxiliary definition to prove some properties of the new family of functions before bundling it into a PartitionOfUnity. Do not use this definition, use BumpCovering.toPartitionOfUnity instead.

The partition of unity is given by the formula g i x = f i x * ∏ᶠ j < i, (1 - f j x). In other words, g i x = ∏ᶠ j < i, (1 - f j x) - ∏ᶠ j ≤ i, (1 - f j x), so ∑ᶠ i, g i x = 1 - ∏ᶠ j, (1 - f j x). If x ∈ s, then one of f j x equals one, hence the product of 1 - f j x vanishes, and ∑ᶠ i, g i x = 1.

In order to avoid an assumption LinearOrder ι, we use WellOrderingRel instead of (<).

A variation of Urysohn's lemma.

In a locally compact T2 space X, for a compact set t and a finite family of open sets {s i}_i such that t ⊆ ⋃ i, s i, there is a family of compactly supported continuous functions {f i}_i supported in s i, ∑ i, f i x = 1 on t and 0 ≤ f i x ≤ 1.
