Is $H^1(0,\infty) \subset C^0([0,\infty))$?

63 Views Asked by At

Is it true that $H^1(0,\infty) \subset C^0([0,\infty))$ is a continuous embedding? How would I prove it?

I do know this holds for bounded domains in one dimension but here we have the half line.

Thanks

This is Theorem 8.2 in Functional Analysis, Sobolev Spaces and Partial Differential Equations by Haim Brezis:

Let $ u \in W^{1,p}(I)$ with $I$ a bounded or unbounded interval. Then there exists $\tilde u \in C(\bar I)$ with $\tilde u = u$ a.e. on $I$ and $$\tilde u(x) - \tilde u(y) = \int_y^x u'$$ for all $x, y \in \bar I$.
