kronecker delta 与 dirac delta 关系

ref: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dirac_delta_function

Dirac delta :

The Dirac delta can be loosely thought of as a function on the real line which is zero everywhere except at the origin, where it is infinite,

\delta(x) = \begin{cases} +\infty, & x = 0 \\ 0, & x \ne 0 \end{cases}

and which is also constrained to satisfy the identity

\int_{-\infty}^\infty \delta(x) \, dx = 1. [18]

This is merely a heuristic characterization. The Dirac delta is not a function in the traditional sense as no function defined on the real numbers has these properties.[17] The Dirac delta function can be rigorously defined either as a distribution or as a measure.

Kronecker Delta:

is a function of two variables, usually integers. The function is 1 if the variables are equal, and 0 otherwise:

\delta_{ij} = \begin{cases}0 &\text{if } i \neq j   \\1 &\text{if } i=j,   \end{cases}

where Kronecker delta δij is a piecewise function of variables i and j. 这个representation可以表示成,

theta_ij==0 if i-j !=0;

theta_ij==1 if i-j ==0;


i.e. kronecker is the discrete analog of dirac!!!!!!!!!!!!!, kronecker usually consider integers!



Besides,


In probability theory and statistics, the Kronecker delta and Dirac delta function can both be used to represent a discrete distribution. If the support of a distribution consists of points \mathbf{x} = \{x_1,\dots,x_n\}, with corresponding probabilities p_1,\dots,p_n\,, then the probability mass function p(x)\, of the distribution over \mathbf{x} can be written, using the Kronecker delta, as

p(x) = \sum_{i=1}^n p_i \delta_{x x_i}.

Equivalently, the probability density function f(x)\, of the distribution can be written using the Dirac delta function as

f(x) = \sum_{i=1}^n p_i \delta(x-x_i).

Under certain conditions, the Kronecker delta can arise from sampling a Dirac delta function. For example, if a Dirac delta impulse occurs exactly at a sampling point and is ideally lowpass-filtered (with cutoff at the critical frequency) per the Nyquist–Shannon sampling theorem, the resulting discrete-time signal will be a Kronecker delta function.
