Product from function in $W^{1,2}_0(Omega)$ and function in $W^{1,2}(Omega)$
$begingroup$
I was wandering what i say about product
$$
ueta
$$
where $uin W^{1,2}(Omega)$ and $etain W^{1,2}_0(Omega)$.
In particular, when i can say that
$$
uetain W^{1,2}_0(Omega).
$$
Is it necessary to make more assumptions about u?

Look out for Hölder's inequality. As it is you will probably only get $u eta in W_0^{1,1}$. For the result you want, you'd need $u in W^{1,infty}$.

@Marvin: If you first use Sobolev's embedding theorem, one can show a little bit more than $W^{1,1}_0(Omega)$. And you do not need $u in W^{1,infty}$ since one could also assume more regularity of $eta$.

@gerw True, you are correct that one can show more. And yes, I thought it is only allowed to change the regularity of $u$ in the way the question was proposed. Good answer, +1.

For $u , eta in W_0^{1,2}(Omega)$ you have to prove three things:
$u , eta in L^2(Omega)$,
$nabla( u , eta ) in L^2(Omega)$, and- the trace of $u , eta$ is zero.
The first is easy to get and the last one follows basically from the fact that the trace of $eta$ is zero. The second one is hardest and needs additional assumptions. From the product rule, it is sufficient to check that $u , nabla eta$ and $eta , nabla u$ are in $L^2$. These can be achieved by combining Sobolev's embedding theorem with Hölder's inequality. For example, you it is sufficient to assume one of the following (this list is not exhaustive):
$u in W^{1,infty}(Omega)$,
$eta in W^{1,infty}(Omega)$,
$u, eta in L^infty(Omega)$,
$u, eta in W^{1,p}(Omega)$ with $p$ large enough (depending on the dimension).
$endgroup$
$begingroup$
Thank you for your answer. I know to prove first and second point (with assumptions) but now it is not clear to me how to prove the last point (that is the trace is zero).

You can approximate $eta$ by compactly supported functions. The product of these functions with $u$ will have zero trace.
