Two tempered distributions u, v admit an extended convolution as soon as at least one of
them has empty conic singular support on the sphere; this is the side condition under which
the convolution u * v can be defined microlocally.
Instances For
The extended convolution u * v defined under HasExtendedConvolution u v by splitting
the distribution with empty conic singular support into a Schwartz part and a compactly
supported part.
Instances For
Independence of the extended convolution on the Schwartz/compact decomposition: any choice
of SchwartzCompactDecomp u (under ConicSingularSupportSphere u = ∅) yields the same value
for extConv u v h.
The product of two conic cutoff functions near a direction ω is again a conic cutoff
near ω: the smoothness, support, and conic-extension properties are preserved by
multiplication.
Subadditivity of the conic singular support on the sphere under addition of distributions:
ConicSingularSupportSphere (a + b) ⊆ ConicSingularSupportSphere a ∪ ConicSingularSupportSphere b.
Subadditivity of the singular support under addition of tempered distributions:
sing supp (a + b) ⊆ sing supp a ∪ sing supp b.
The singular support of extConv u v h is contained in the union of the singular supports
of the convolutions of v with the Schwartz and compact parts of u.
Multiplying the Schwartz convolution v * φ on the left by a smooth compactly supported
function ψ produces a tempered distribution which is again represented by a Schwartz function.
The convolution of a tempered distribution with a Schwartz function is smooth at every point: locally one can multiply by a compactly supported bump to obtain a Schwartz representative.
Convolution of any tempered distribution with a Schwartz function has empty singular support: it is smooth everywhere.
The two notions of "compactly supported distribution" used in the cone-support and differential-operators namespaces coincide definitionally.
The convolution-system specialisation convCompact v w for a compactly supported w
coincides with the DifferentialOperators.distribConvolution w v hw construction.
The ConeSupport.singularSupport and DifferentialOperators.singularSupport
definitions of the singular support of a tempered distribution agree.
Singular support of a convolution with a compactly supported distribution: the standard
microlocal inclusion sing supp (v * w) ⊆ sing supp w + sing supp v.
Singular support of the compact part of a Schwartz/compact decomposition is contained in the singular support of the original distribution.
Singular support of the extended convolution: sing supp (extConv u v h) ⊆ sing supp u + sing supp v, the microlocal inclusion for the extended convolution.
The conic singular support of extConv u v h is contained in the union of the conic
singular supports of the Schwartz and compact convolution components.
Conic singular support is monotone under convolution with a Schwartz function:
CSS_sphere (v * φ) ⊆ CSS_sphere v.
Additivity of convCompact in the right argument of standardConvolutionSystem:
(v₁ + v₂) * w = v₁ * w + v₂ * w for compactly supported w.
Associativity of distributional convolution with Schwartz functions: pairing the Schwartz
function φ against the convolution w * ψ equals pairing w against the Schwartz
convolution φ * ψ.
A distributional Fubini formula: the integral of (w * ψ) · φ equals the pairing of w
with the Schwartz function F(y) = ∫ φ(x) ψ(y - x) dx.
L² symmetry of the convolution operator with a compactly supported distribution w:
⟨w * ψ, φ⟩_{L²} = ⟨ψ, w * φ⟩_{L²}, an instance of the Fubini-type identity.
Convolution of a compactly supported distribution w with the embedded Schwartz function
φ yields a tempered distribution represented by a Schwartz function.
convCompact of a compactly supported distribution with the embedded Schwartz function
φ is itself represented by a Schwartz function.
When the parameter of standardConvolutionSystem is a Schwartz function (embedded as a
distribution), convCompact always has empty conic singular support on the sphere.
Vanishing of compactDistribConv in the left argument when this is zero:
(0) * w = 0.
If multiplication of v by g₀ annihilates v, then the same multiplication annihilates
compactDistribConv v w for any compactly supported w.
If a conic cutoff g₀ near ω annihilates v, then g₀ · (v * w) is a Schwartz
function for any compactly supported w; here this is exhibited by the zero Schwartz
function.
Microlocal control: if a direction set Γ is disjoint from the conic support of v,
then it is also disjoint from the conic singular support of v * w for compactly supported
w.
Short-name alias for the subadditivity of ConicSingularSupportSphere under addition.
Convolution with a compactly supported distribution does not enlarge the conic singular
support on the sphere: CSS_sphere (v * w) ⊆ CSS_sphere v.
Conic singular support of the extended convolution: CSS_sphere (extConv u v h) ⊆ CSS_sphere v, recovering the microlocal direction control.
Microlocal inclusion for the cone singular support of the extended convolution: the cone
singular support of extConv u v h is contained in the union of the Minkowski sum of singular
supports (in the Sum.inl block) and the conic singular support of v (in the Sum.inr
block). This is Cor 12.17 in Melrose.
