a question of density in showing that the variational question of Laplace equation [on hold]

Here is a statement in showing that the variational question of Laplace equation, I'm confused with the following step:



if $int_Omega (nabla u+f)phi dxdy=0$ for every $phiin C_c^{infty}Omega$



then according to the statement that $C_c^{infty}Omega$ is dense in $L^2(Omega)$,we have:
$nabla u=-f$



why? how to prove this?



Any help would be appreciated, thanks in advance!

  • $nabla u = -f $ surely?

  • I think you want a proof more formal than this. But imagine $phi$ being a small bump (like a Gaussian or whatever) and make it thinner and thinner like a delta function. Then you will get your result.

  • yes, $nabla u=-f$. but i still confused of this, i don't really understand your explanation, where we use the density property of $C_c^{infty}(Omega)$ in $L^2(Omega)$
