An exemple of integral of distributions












0












$begingroup$


Need to solve this integral:
$$I=int_{-1}^{1}dx(lim_{varepsilonto 0^+}frac{varepsilon}{varepsilon^2+x^2}f(x)+pivartheta(x)frac{df(x)}{dx}(x)) $$
I think I should recognize the limit as a distribution, but I can't find which one with a precise argument, I think it is $ delta$ Dirac function. So if it is correct this is my solution:
$$I=int_{-1}^{1}delta(x)f(x)dx+piint_{-1}^{1}vartheta(x)frac{df(x)}{dx}(x)dx=$$
$$f(0)+pi(f(1)-f(0))$$



Is this correct? If the identification of the limit with delta function is correct, can you please tell me why?



Thanks a lot

Almost. The limit is $pi delta(x)$ since
$$
int_{-infty}^{infty} frac{epsilon}{epsilon^2+x^2} phi(x) , dx
= { x = epsilon y }
= int_{-infty}^{infty} frac{epsilon}{epsilon^2+epsilon^2 y^2} phi(epsilon y) , epsilon , dy
= int_{-infty}^{infty} frac{1}{1+y^2} phi(epsilon y) , dy \
to int_{-infty}^{infty} frac{1}{1+y^2} phi(0) , dy
= left( int_{-infty}^{infty} frac{1}{1+y^2} , dy right) phi(0)
= pi phi(0)
= int_{-infty}^{infty} pi delta(x) , phi(x) , dx
$$

for all $phi in C_c^infty.$

    Has the OP observed that the graphical representation of function $f_{varepsilon}$ defined by $f_{varepsilon}(x):=varepsilon/(varepsilon^2+x^2)$ is obtained from the curve of $f(x):=1/(1+x^2)$ (Cauchy function) by squeezing it in a ratio $1:varepsilon$ along the $x$-axis while elongating it in an inverse ratio along the $y$ axis, thus preserving the area under its curve.
