| Nov 7, 2010 at 3:11 | comment | added | sleepless in beantown | I agree with Deane Yang; it's important to exercise your brain before asking for help. It would be worth the effort to consider different mollifiers or smoothing functions and attempt to calculate and understand what the convolution of the mollifier with $f$ would result in. I didn't even know the word mollifier as a mathematical term until just 2 minutes ago; however, vocabulary expansion alone is not a good reason for a question to be on mathoverflow. I'd vote to close this question also, if I had the points to do it. | |

| Nov 6, 2010 at 22:18 | comment | added | PDE | Oh! It wasn't a home work problem. I have been reading about convolutions and thought of this question... In any case thank you for your time! | |

| Nov 6, 2010 at 22:00 | comment | added | Harald Hanche-Olsen | I have voted to close this because this does not seem like a question that could arise in research. It looks more like a homework problem, and a rather easy one at that. Sorry to be so blunt about it – please check out the first two questions in the faq to see what mathoverflow is all about. | |
