To verify the second statement we take an orthonormal basis

,
β

in each

, each

runs over

independently. Since
L

is dense
in
L

(Ω)
,
E
becomes an orthonormal basis of the latter [4, 8]. Any element
F
∈
L

(Ω)
can be expressed uniquely in the form of Fourier series,

By assumption
F

P

. Let
ψ

Substitute the above series into (6), and take inner product with just defined

, we obtain immediately

, what is claimed in the Lemma.
Now we proceed to establish the necessary conditions which a solution
of (4),

supremum at some element

α
