Abstract
We present a generalization of the representation in plane waves of Dirac delta, , namely , using the nonextensive-statistical-mechanics -exponential function, with , being any real number, for real values of within the interval . Concomitantly with the development of these new representations of Dirac delta, we also present two new families of representations of the transcendental number . Incidentally, we remark that the -plane wave form which emerges, namely , is normalizable for , in contrast with the standard one, , which is not.
