viz. we use also a, (3, a,, ¡3and p, q, p,, q, to denote the zero-functions; ¡3, is = 0,
but we use /3/ to denote the zero-value of Y,.

by means of which the lower character is always reduced to 0 or 1: in all these
formulae the argument is arbitrary, and it is thus = 2u, or 2u' as the case requires.
The formulae are obtained without difficulty directly from the definition of the
functions ©.
