Landau kernel


For k the Landau kernel Lk(t) is defined as

Lk={1ck(1-t2)kif t[-1,1]0otherwise

with

ck:=-11(1-t2)k𝑑t.

Lk is nonnegative and continuousMathworldPlanetmath on . Due to the choice of ck we have

-Lk(t)𝑑t=1.

Also we have for all positive, real r:

\[-r,r]Lk(t)𝑑t 2ckr1(1-t2)k𝑑t
(k+1)(1-r2)k.

Therefore (Lk)k is a Dirac sequence.
