  2. Dirac delta function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dirac_delta_function

    A Dirac comb is an infinite series of Dirac delta functions spaced at intervals of T. A so-called uniform "pulse train" of Dirac delta measures, which is known as a Dirac comb, or as the Sha distribution, creates a sampling function, often used in digital signal processing (DSP) and discrete time signal analysis

  3. Delta (letter) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Delta_(letter)

    Delta (/ ˈ d ɛ l t ə / DEL-tə; [1] uppercase Δ, lowercase δ; Greek: δέλτα, délta, ) [2] is the fourth letter of the Greek alphabet. In the system of Greek numerals, it has a value of four. It was derived from the Phoenician letter dalet 𐤃. [3] Letters that come from delta include the Latin D and the Cyrillic Д.

  4. Delta potential - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Delta_potential

    The delta potential is the potential = (), where δ(x) is the Dirac delta function. It is called a delta potential well if λ is negative, and a delta potential barrier if λ is positive. The delta has been defined to occur at the origin for simplicity; a shift in the delta function's argument does not change any of the following results.

  5. Kronecker delta - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kronecker_delta

    The Kronecker delta has the so-called sifting property that for : = =. and if the integers are viewed as a measure space, endowed with the counting measure, then this property coincides with the defining property of the Dirac delta function () = (), and in fact Dirac's delta was named after the Kronecker delta because of this analogous property ...

  6. Dirac measure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dirac_measure

    The Dirac measures are the extreme points of the convex set of probability measures on X. The name is a back-formation from the Dirac delta function; considered as a Schwartz distribution, for example on the real line, measures can be taken to be a special kind of distribution. The identity

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unit_doublet

    Approximation of a unit doublet with two rectangles of width k as k goes to zero. In mathematics, the unit doublet is the derivative of the Dirac delta function.It can be used to differentiate signals in electrical engineering: [1] If u 1 is the unit doublet, then
