Multiplication of tempered distributions by functions of temperate growth #

Mathlib's TemperedDistribution.smulLeftCLM F g multiplies a tempered distribution by a function g of temperate growth, through its action u ↦ g • u on test functions. This file records that on the tempered distribution of a Schwartz function f, taken against any measure of temperate growth, it is the tempered distribution of the pointwise product g • f, so that it extends Mathlib's SchwartzMap.smulLeftCLM. Mathlib proves the corresponding statement for g of temperate growth lying in Lᵖ, acting on L^q functions with Hölder exponents (MeasureTheory.Lp.toTemperedDistribution_smul_eq).

Directional derivatives of such products obey the Leibniz rule ∂_v (g f) = (∂_v g) f + g ∂_v f, where ∂_v g is the classical derivative x ↦ Dg(x) v, again a function of temperate growth. By duality this is the Leibniz rule for Schwartz functions (SchwartzMap.lineDerivOp_smulLeftCLM).

Main results #

@[simp]

Multiplication by a function without temperate growth is the junk value 0, because SchwartzMap.smulLeftCLM is 0 for such a function.

The Leibniz rule for tempered distributions: for g of temperate growth, ∂_v (g f) = (∂_v g) f + g ∂_v f, where ∂_v g is the classical derivative x ↦ Dg(x) v.

Multiplication by a function on tempered distributions extends the pointwise multiplication of Schwartz functions, for the embedding of Schwartz functions against any measure of temperate growth. (If g is not of temperate growth, both multiplications are zero.)
