what is the relation of smooth compact supported funtions and real analytic function?

What is the major difference between real analytic and test function (smooth compact supported functions). Can we find a real analytic function $f$ on $R^n$ which is also smooth compact supported? If ...

How can you show that $\delta′=f(0)\delta′−f′(0)\delta$ for a function f that is infinitely differentiable?

Assume that $f$ is infinitely differentiable. Let $\delta$ be the (Dirac) delta functional. I know that $f\delta = f(0)\delta$, but I'm not sure how to derive the equation ...

Prove the Borel Lemma

I'm trying to prove the Borel Lemma, which is: For every series $a_0,a_1,a_2,\dots$ in $\mathbb{C}$ exists $f \in C^{\infty}(\mathbb{R})$ such as $$ f^{(k)}(0) = a_k $$ for every $k \in ...

Does $\sqrt{\delta^2}$ make more sense than $\delta^2$?

What is the Product of $\delta$ functions with itself? was already asked some time ago. In a comment the OP states: I want to create $\delta(t)$ such that the product with itself is also ...

Which of these two ways to take the derivative of a delta function times another function is correct?

A well known identity of the Dirac delta function is that for any function $f(x)$: $$ \delta(x) f(x) = \delta(x) f(0). $$ If we take the derivative of the right hand side we get: $$ ...
