This proves the first claim of the lemma.Consider now the claim that t→ X (t) is weakly continuous. Letting v ∈V,

limt→s

(X (t) ,v) = limt→s⟨X (t) ,v⟩= ⟨X (s) ,v⟩= (X (s) ,v)

Since it was shown that |X (t)| is bounded independent of t, and since V is dense in H, theclaim follows.

Thus, since the partitions are nested, eventually |X (tm)|2 is constant for all k large enoughand the integral term converges to ∫ tm

0⟨Y (u) ,X (u)⟩du

It follows that the term on the left does converge to something. It just remains to considerwhat it does converge to. However, from the equation solved by X ,

However, both X r and X l converge to X in K = Lp (0,T,V ). Therefore, this term mustconverge to 0. Passing to a limit, it follows that for all t ∈ D, the desired formula holds.Thus, for such t,
