Dirac Delta Function: Also defined as
This page has been identified as a candidate for refactoring of medium complexity. In particular: The following are to be established as results in their own separate pages -- in progress Until this has been finished, please leave {{Refactor}} in the code.
New contributors: Refactoring is a task which is expected to be undertaken by experienced editors only. Because of the underlying complexity of the work needed, it is recommended that you do not embark on a refactoring task until you have become familiar with the structural nature of pages of $\mathsf{Pr} \infty \mathsf{fWiki}$.To discuss this page in more detail, feel free to use the talk page. When this work has been completed, you may remove this instance of {{Refactor}} from the code. |
The Dirac delta function is also defined by the following limits:
\(\text {(1)}: \quad\) | \(\ds \map \delta x\) | \(=\) | \(\ds \dfrac 1 \pi \lim_{\epsilon \mathop \to 0} \dfrac \epsilon {x^2 + \epsilon^2}\) | |||||||||||
\(\text {(2)}: \quad\) | \(\ds \) | \(=\) | \(\ds \dfrac 1 2 \lim_{\epsilon \mathop \to 0} \epsilon \size x^{\epsilon - 1}\) | |||||||||||
\(\text {(3)}: \quad\) | \(\ds \) | \(=\) | \(\ds \dfrac 1 {\sqrt \pi} \lim_{\epsilon \mathop \to 0} \dfrac 1 {\sqrt {4 \epsilon} } e^{-x^2 / {4 \epsilon} }\) | |||||||||||
\(\text {(4)}: \quad\) | \(\ds \) | \(=\) | \(\ds \dfrac 1 {\pi x} \lim_{\epsilon \mathop \to 0} \map \sin {\dfrac x \epsilon}\) |
