Deriving of a bound for |u|Qt
To get a bound for the norm |u|Qt , we need to derive an energy balance
equation. We follow the procedure:

Uniqueness of a Solution Application to our problem
Suppose we have two generalized solutions u0 6= u00 for the same right
hand side and initial data, then the difference u = u0 − u00 is also a
generalized solution in H̊ 1,0 (QT ) with zero right hand side and
homogeneous initial data. We have shown that it is then also a generalized
solution in V̊21,0 (QT ) and fulfils
1
ku(·, t)k22,Ω + kux k22,Qt = 0

as well as
|u|Qt ≤ 0.
From this, we deduce that u = 0 and moreover u0 = u00 , hence it is unique
in H 1,0 (QT ).

Uniqueness of a Solution An uniqueness Theorem
An Uniqueness Theorem
With these arguments, it follows that the operator B, which assigns each
{f ; fi ; ϕ} its generalized solution in V̊21,0 (QT ) is linear and that the energy
balance equation is a result of (15).
Theorem
Under the assumptions of Theorem 3.1, any generalized solution from
H 1,0 (QT ) is the generalized solution in V̊21,0 (QT ) and it is unique in
H 1,0 (QT ).
