In what sense is $\breve{g}(x-y)/(2\pi)^n$ the integral kernel of $g(-i\nabla)$?

It is said in Trace Ideals and Their Applications by Barry Simon that the integral kernel of the operator $g(-i\nabla)$ on $L^2(\mathbb R^n)$ is given by $\breve{g}(x-y)/(2\pi)^n$. Indeed, for any $\...

proof of the product: x times m derivative of delta function.

The question is in one dimension and is : Prove that $$x\delta^{(m)}=-m\delta^{(m-1)},\ m \in \mathbb{N},$$ where $\delta^{(m)}$ is the $m$-derivative of $\delta.$ As I know, I got through this way: $...

Scaled Dirac Delta function: $ \delta (xe^r - y) $

I was reading on squeezed Gaussian states and stumbled upon this paper: Equivalence Classes of Minimum-Uncertainty Packets. II. It is mentioned after Eq. $\left(2\right)$ that $$ \left\langle x\left\...
