A Lean 4 formalisation of the solvability theory of linear second-order elliptic operators in divergence form on a bounded domain, -div(A grad u) + b · grad u + c u = f in Ω, u = 0 on ∂Ω, with A uniformly elliptic and every coefficient bounded and measurable. The drift b is unrestricted and the bilinear form is in general non-symmetric. The six compared statements are the results of Evans §6.2: the Gårding inequality, existence and uniqueness of the weak solution with no drift and a nonnegative zeroth-order coefficient, the Fredholm alternative, solvability against the transpose problem, the…
