A distribution is a continuous linear functional on the space $\mathcal{C}^{\infty}_c$ of smooth (indefinitely differentiable) functions with compact support. Though they appeared in formal computations in the physics and engineering literature in the late $19^{th}$ century, their formal setting was brought up by the work of S. Sobolev and L. Schwartz in the middle of the $20^{th}$ century.

Characterization of tempered distributions from tempered sequences
Let $\mathcal{D}(\mathbb{R})$ be the space of compactly supported and infinitely smooth functions for its usual topology. Let
$\mathcal{D}'(\mathbb{R})$ be the topological dual of $\mathcal{D}(\mathb …

Critical Smoothness on Besov Spaces $B^s_{p}$: how does it evolved with $p$?
We denote by $B_{p}^s(\mathbb{T}) := B_{p,p}^s(\mathbb{T})$ the Besov space over the circle $\mathbb{T}$ with parameters $p=q \in (0, \infty]$ and smoothness $s \in \mathbb{R}$.
For $p>0$ fixed and $f …

Critical Smoothness on Besov Spaces $B^s_{p}$: how does it evolved with $p$?
The answer to my question is actually no: there exists generalized functions such that $s_p(f)$ is not of the proposed form. Stéphane Jaffard discusses the possible forms of the functions $s_p(f)$, de …

Riesz Representation Theorem for $L^2(\mathbb{R}) \oplus L^2(\mathbb{T})$?
The spaces $L^2(\mathbb{R})$ (square-integrable functions) and $L^2(\mathbb{T})$ (1-periodic square-integrable functions, considered over the real line $\mathbb{R}$) are two subspaces of the space of …

For which tempered distributions is the fractional derivative well-defined?
Let $\gamma \geq 0$ and consider the fractional derivative operator defined in Fourier domain by
$$\mathcal{F} \{\mathrm{D}^{\gamma} \varphi \} (\omega) = (\mathrm{i} \omega)^{\gamma} \mathcal{F}\{\v …

Completion of $\mathcal{S}(\mathbb{R})$ for a given norm
Assume that $\lVert \cdot \rVert$ is a norm on the space of rapidly decaying functions $\mathcal{S}(\mathbb{R})$. Under which conditions on the norm can we say that the completion $\mathcal{X}$ for th …

Generalized Besov spaces with different integrability and smoothness in space and time?
Consider the family of Besov spaces $B_{p,q}^{s}(\mathbb{R})$ with $0<p,q \leq \infty$ and $s \in \mathbb{R}$.
Is there a natural way to define spaces of generalized functions $f(t,x) \in \mathcal{S} …

Define the space of distributions with algebraic decay?
A tempered distribution $u\in \mathcal{S}'(\mathbb{R})$ is said to be rapidly decreasing if for every $f \in \mathcal{S}(\mathbb{R})$, $u*f \in \mathcal{S}(\mathbb{R})$.
One rough way to motivate t …
