Why are kernels often singular on the diagonal?
Many kernels/integral operators are given in terms of a function that is singular near the origin:
For example, the heat kernel on $\mathbb{R}^d$:
$$
\operatorname{K}\left(t,x,y\right) =
\frac{1}{\...

Convolution between $L^1$ function and a singular integral kernel
I meet a problem when reading Modern Fourier Analysis(3rd. Edition) written by L.Grafakos. On pg.82 he writes:
Fix $L\in\mathbb{Z}^+$. Suppose that $\{K_j(x)\}_{j=1}^L$ is a family of functions ...

A doubt in the proof of the spectrum of convolution operator
The following is a link showing the spectrum of convolution operator $A f(x)= \int_{-\pi}^{\pi} h(x-y) f(y) dy$ $L^2( {-\pi},{\pi})->L^2( {-\pi},{\pi})$ is range of $h$ where $h$ is continuous ...

Solving the Poisson equation $-\Delta u=f$ on a domain $G$
Let $G$ be a domain and $f\in C_c^1(\mathbb{R}^n)$. We want to solve
$$-\Delta u =f \text{ in } G$$
without any boundary condition. Can we just take $\Delta^{-1}$ the inverse Laplacian on $\mathbb{R}^...
