Reason: The rescaling of a mollifier kernel of radius delta by a positive factor epsilon is a mollifier kernel of radius epsilon*delta.

Statement

Let nn be a natural number with 1n1\le n, let R\mathbb{R} be the real numbers, and let δ,εR\delta,\varepsilon\in\mathbb{R} satisfy 0<δ0<\delta and 0<ε0<\varepsilon. Write t1t^{-1} for the multiplicative inverse of t0t\ne 0, and let powers with a natural exponent be those of Natural Number Power of an Element of a Field. Regard Euclidean space Rn\mathbb{R}^{n} as a real vector space, so that tyt\,y denotes the scalar multiple of yRny\in\mathbb{R}^{n} by tRt\in\mathbb{R}.

Let ρ:RnR\rho:\mathbb{R}^{n}\to\mathbb{R} be a mollifier kernel of radius δ\delta on Rn\mathbb{R}^{n}, and let ρε:RnR\rho_{\varepsilon}:\mathbb{R}^{n}\to\mathbb{R} be given by

ρε(y)=(ε1)nρ(ε1y)(yRn).\rho_{\varepsilon}(y)=\bigl(\varepsilon^{-1}\bigr)^{n}\,\rho\bigl(\varepsilon^{-1}y\bigr)\qquad(y\in\mathbb{R}^{n}).

Then ρε\rho_{\varepsilon} is a mollifier kernel of radius εδ\varepsilon\delta on Rn\mathbb{R}^{n}.
