Heaviside step function — The Heaviside step function, H , also called the unit step function, is a discontinuous function whose value is zero for negative argument and one for positive argument.It seldom matters what value is used for H (0), since H is mostly used as a… … Wikipedia
Unit function — In number theory, the unit function is a completely multiplicative function on the positive integers defined as::varepsilon(n) = egin{cases} 1, mbox{if }n=1 0, mbox{if }n>1 end{cases} It is called the unit function because it is the identity… … Wikipedia

Heaviside condition — The Heaviside condition, due to Oliver Heaviside (1850–1925), is the condition an electrical transmission line must meet in order for there to be no distortion of a transmitted signal. Also known as the distortionless condition, it can be used to … Wikipedia
Dirac delta function — Schematic representation of the Dirac delta function by a line surmounted by an arrow. The height of the arrow is usually used to specify the value of any multiplicative constant, which will give the area under the function. The other convention… … Wikipedia
Sign function — In mathematics, the sign function is a mathematical function that extracts the sign of a real number. To avoid confusion with the sine function, this function is often called the signum function (after the Latin form of sign ).In mathematical… … Wikipedia
