Dirichlet function  

Definition(s)

  • In mathematics, the Dirichlet function is the indicator function of the set of rational numbers , i.e. if x is a rational number and if x is not a rational number (i.e. is an irrational number).

    It is named after the mathematician Peter Gustav Lejeune Dirichlet. It is an example of pathological function which provides counterexamples to many situations.
