Proof of Uniqueness of a Bounded Continuous Viscosity Solution on a Hilbert Triple
corollarycor:uniqueness-bounded-continuous-solution-hilbert-triple-2026aComparison applied in both directions gives equality on V, and two continuous functions agreeing on a dense subset agree everywhere.
Each result cited is universally quantified over the data in its own statement.
By Viscosity Subsolution, Supersolution and Solution of a Second-Order Equation on a Hilbert Triple §solution each of and is both a viscosity subsolution and a viscosity supersolution of on . By claim 6 of Properties of the Absolute Value in an Ordered Field, the hypotheses and give
Apply A Comparison Principle on a Hilbert Triple under the First-Order Structure Condition §comparison with as the subsolution, as the supersolution and the constant : it gives for every . Applying it again with the roles of and exchanged gives for every . Hence for every .
The subspace is nonempty and dense in by Hilbert Triples: Standing Notation and Background §triple, and and are continuous on , so Extension of a Uniformly Continuous Real Function from a Dense Subset §uniqueness, applied in the metric space with the dense subset , gives for every .
