Designing a general library for convolutions

Logic in Computer Science 2022-10-17 v1 Mathematical Software Functional Analysis

Abstract

We will discuss our experiences and design decisions obtained from building a formal library for the convolution of two functions. Convolution is a fundamental concept with applications throughout mathematics. We will focus on the design decisions we made to make the convolution general and easy to use, and the incorporation of this development in Lean's mathematical library mathlib.
