One discusses a problem of asymptotical behavior for some operators in a general theory of pseudo differential equations on manifolds with borders. Using the distribution theory one obtains certain explicit representations for these…
We present a generalization of the representation in plane waves of Dirac delta, $\delta(x)=(1/2\pi)\int_{-\infty}^\infty e^{-ikx}\,dk$, namely $\delta(x)=(2-q)/(2\pi)\int_{-\infty}^\infty e_q^{-ikx}\,dk$, using the…
A Fourier transformation in a fractional dimensional space of order $\la$ ($0<\la\leq 1$) is defined to solve the Schr\"odinger equation with Riesz fractional derivatives of order $\a$. This new method is applied for a particle in a…
In 1977 Korchinski presented a new type of shock discontinuity in conservation laws. These singular solutions were coined $\delta$-shocks since there is a time dependent Dirac delta involved. A naive description is that such $\delta$-shock…
We consider Cauchy type integrals $I(t)={1\over 2\pi i}\int_{\gamma} {g(z)dz\over z-t}$ with $g(z)$ an algebraic function. The main goal is to give constructive (at least, in principle) conditions for $I(t)$ to be an algebraic function, a…
After reviewing the algebraic derivation of the Doppler factor in the Lienard-Wiechert potentials of an electrically charged point particle, we conclude that the Dirac delta function used in electrodynamics must be the one obeying the weak…

This paper investigates the analytic properties of the Liouville function's Dirichlet series that obtains from the function F(s)= zeta(2s)/zeta(s), where s is a complex variable and zeta(s) is the Riemann zeta function. The paper employs a…
This article is devoted to completing some aspects of the classical Cauchy-Lipschitz (or Picard-Lindel\"of) theory for general nonlinear systems posed on time scales, that are closed subsets of the set of real numbers. Partial results do…
We present a study on the integral forms and their Cech/de Rham cohomology. We analyze the problem from a general perspective of sheaf theory and we explore examples in superprojective manifolds. Integral forms are fundamental in the theory…
We examine prevailing philosophical and historical views about the origin of infinitesimal mathematics in light of modern infinitesimal theories, and show the works of Fermat, Leibniz, Euler, Cauchy and other giants of infinitesimal…
We give a local integral formula, valid on general curved space-times, for the characteristic Cauchy problem for the Dirac equation with arbitrary spin using the method developed by Friedlander in his book "the wave equation on a curved…
The notion of pairable functions is introduced and some of its properties are developed. In this connection the famous Euler identity is interpreted as a property of certain pairable functions and finite cyclic groups.
Let $d(n)$ be the number of divisors of $n$, let $$ \Delta(x) := \sum_{n\le x}d(n) - x(\log x + 2\gamma -1) $$ denote the error term in the classical Dirichlet divisor problem, and let $\zeta(s)$ denote the Riemann zeta-function. Several…
The Takagi function is a continuous non-differentiable function on [0,1] introduced by Teiji Takagi in 1903. It has since appeared in a surprising number of different mathematical contexts, including mathematical analysis, probability…
In this paper, we describe the line Dirac delta function of a curve in three-dimensional space in terms of the distance function to the curve. Its extension to level set formulation and plane curves are also developed. The main ideas can be…
Motivated by the integral representation of the Euler Beta function, we introduce its Cauchy siblings and investigate some of their properties. Two of these newly introduced functions happen to coincide with some classical means, such as…
In this paper we continue the development of the differential calculus started by Aragona-Ferandez-Juriaans. Guided by the topology introduced recently by those authors we introduce the notion of membranes and extend the definition of…
In this note we present an example from undergraduate quantum mechanics designed to highlight the versatility of the Dirac $\delta$-function. Namely, we compute the expectation value of the Hamiltonian of a free-particle in a state…
We derive new all-purpose methods that involve the Dirac Delta distribution. Some of the new methods use derivatives in the argument of the Dirac Delta. We highlight potential avenues for applications to quantum field theory and we also…
