evaluation dual norm of a scaled $H^1_0$-space

38 Views Asked by At

If the space $H^1_0(\Omega)$ is equipped with the norm

$$\|v\|^2:=\epsilon\|v\|_{2}^2+\|\nabla v\|_{2}^2$$

then, my first question is

If $f\in H^{-1}(\Omega)$ then does

$$\sup_{v\in H^1_0(\Omega)}\dfrac{\langle f,v \rangle}{\|v\|}= \|f\|_{H^{-1}(\Omega)}$$

or

$$\sup_{v\in H^1_0(\Omega)}\dfrac{\langle f,v \rangle}{\|v\|}= \|\epsilon^{-\frac{1}{2}}f\|_{H^{-1}(\Omega)}$$

?

My second question is

If $g \in H^1_0(\Omega)$, then can I say that

$$\|g\|_{H^{-1}(\Omega)}=\|g\|_{L^{2}(\Omega)} $$

?

Many thanks for your help.
