Variational Principles, Mosco Limits, and Scale-Flow Dynamics for Dirichlet Forms with Operator-Valued Potentials
We establish a rigorous variational convergence framework for scale-dependent Dirichlet energy functionals coupled to operator-valued fiber potentials on metric measure spaces. First, on a strongly local metric measure Dirichlet space (X, d, μ, Ɛ) with a separable internal Hilbert space K, we formulate the weak Euler-Lagrange variational principle for classical vector-valued field actions and classify the domain regularity required for strong L² generator representations. Second, for a parameterized family of bounded non-negative self-adjoint fiber mass operators M_s² ∈ B(K), we prove the Common-Fiber Mosco Convergence Theorem, establishing that operator-norm convergence implies Mosco convergence of the quadratic forms and strong resolvent convergence of the coupled self-adjoint generators on H = L²(X, μ; K). Third, under a logarithmic scale-flow parameter dynamics, we prove power-law operator relaxation toward the infrared limit. Fourth, assuming compact Sobolev embedding on bounded domains (d ≤ 3), we prove Γ-convergence of non-linear quartic interacting energy functionals and strong H¹ convergence of energy minimizers, rigorously isolating unstable saddle-point continuation as an open problem. All analytical theorems are accompanied by deterministic computational verification receipts and formal Lean 4 machine proofs of the underlying operator resolvent algebra.
This scholarly research manuscript establishes the functional analytic foundations, variational stationarity criteria, and Mosco convergence limits for scale-dependent Dirichlet forms coupled to bounded operator-valued potentials on metric measure spaces.
