<strong>Gauge</strong> Institute Journal, Volume 8, No.2, May 2012H. Vic Dannon3.<strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Function</strong>In [Dan5], we have defined the <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Function</strong>, and established itsproperties1. The <strong>Delta</strong> <strong>Function</strong> is a hyper-real function defined from thehyper-real line into the set of two hyper-reals⎧⎪ 1 ⎫⎨0, ⎪⎬⎪⎩dx⎭⎪ . Thehyper-real0 is the sequence 0, 0, 0,... . The infinite hyperreal1dxdepends on our choice of dx .2. We will usually choose the family of infinitesimals that isspanned by the sequences1n , 12n,1n3,… It is asemigroup with respect to vector addition, and includes allthe scalar multiples of the generating sequences that arenon-zero. That is, the family includes infinitesimals withnegative sign. Therefore,1dxwill mean the sequence n .Alternatively, we may choose the family spanned by thesequences12 n ,13 n ,14 n ,… Then, 1dxwill mean the13
