    Q1: For two integrable functions $f,g: \mathbb{R}^n \rightarrow \mathbb{R}$, one can define the convolution. What is the correct definition?

    A1: $ \displaystyle (f \ast g)(x) $ $ \displaystyle = \int_{\mathbb{R}^n} f(x-y) g(y) , dy $

    A2: $ \displaystyle (f \ast g)(x) $ $ \displaystyle = \int_{\mathbb{R}^n} f(x) g(x-y) , dy $

    A3: $ \displaystyle (f \ast g)(x) $ $ \displaystyle = \int_{\mathbb{R}^n} f(y) g(y) , dy $

    A4: $ \displaystyle (f \ast g)(x) $ $ \displaystyle = \int_{\mathbb{R}^n} f(y) g(x-y) , dx $

    Q2: Let $f: \mathbb{R}^n \rightarrow \mathbb{R}$ be a locally integrable function and $\varphi, \psi \in \mathcal{D}(\mathbb{R}^n)$. Define $\check{\psi}(z) := \psi(-z)$. What is correct?

    A1: $ \displaystyle \int_{\mathbb{R}^n} (\psi \ast f)(x) \varphi(x) , dx $ $ \displaystyle = \int_{\mathbb{R}^n} f(x) (\check{\psi} \ast \varphi)(x) , dx$

    A2: $ \displaystyle \int_{\mathbb{R}^n} (\psi \ast f)(x) \varphi(x) , dx $ $ \displaystyle = \int_{\mathbb{R}^n} f(x) (\psi \ast \varphi)(x) , dx$

    A3: $ \displaystyle \int_{\mathbb{R}^n} (\psi \ast f)(x) \varphi(x) , dx $ $ \displaystyle = \int_{\mathbb{R}^n} f(x) (\varphi \ast \psi)(x) , dx$

    A4: $ \displaystyle \int_{\mathbb{R}^n} (\psi \ast f)(x) \varphi(x) , dx $ $ \displaystyle = \int_{\mathbb{R}^n} \psi(x) (\check{f} \ast \check{\varphi})(x) , dx$

    Q3: Let $T$ be a distribution and $\psi$ a test function. What is the correct definition for the convolution $\psi \ast T$?

    A1: $ \displaystyle (\psi \ast T) ( \varphi) = T(\check{\psi} \ast \varphi) $

    A2: $ \displaystyle (\psi \ast T) ( \varphi) = T(\psi \ast \varphi) $

    A3: $ \displaystyle (\psi \ast T) ( \varphi) = T(\psi \cdot \varphi) $

    A4: $ \displaystyle (\psi \ast T) ( \varphi) = T(\check{\psi} \cdot \varphi) $
