Delta function formulas
Not what you're looking for?
a) Justify the formula ?(2x)=(1/2)?(x) by limits and by duality;
b) Find a similar formula for ?(ax) when a>0 and when a<0;
c) We know that x?(x)=0, where ? is the delta function. On the other hand by Leibniz rule (x?(x))â?²=?(x)+x?â?²(x) is apparently not zero. How can this paradox be explained?
