Abstract:
The non-commutative convolution f * g of two distributions f and g in V is defined to be the limit of the sequence {(f tau(n)) * g}, provided the limit exists, where {tau(n)} is a certain sequence of functions in D converging to 1. It is proved that
vertical bar x vertical bar(lambda) * (sgnx vertical bar x vertical bar(mu)) = 2 sin(lambda pi/2)cos(mu pi/2)/sin[(lambda+mu)pi/2] B(lambda+1, mu+1) sgn x vertical bar x vertical bar(lambda+mu+1),
for -1 < lambda + mu < 0 and lambda, mu not equal -1, -2,..., where B denotes the Beta function.
