Coercivity of functional vs Boundness of the set: how to prove this?

47 Views Asked by At

Referring to my previous question: Two theorems of existence of a minimizer in a Hilbert space.

I am trying to prove that the coercivity of the functional allow us to skip the hypothesis of boundness on the set $C$.

Could someone please give me a refernece or help me with the proof?

Thank you in advance!
