# A radial smooth mollifier on `ℂ`, and the disc mean-value property

This file provides the analytic tool needed by
`BookProof/ChapterWeylCauchyRiemann.lean` — the distributional
("weak Cauchy–Riemann") version of the *Holomorphic fields* remark of `book.tex`
(line ~4105).

Mathlib's `ContDiffBump` family is only known to be *even*, not *radial*
(the abstract `ContDiffBumpBase` interface records `toFun R (-x) = toFun R x`
and nothing more), and radiality is exactly what makes a mollifier reproduce
holomorphic functions.  So we build an explicit radial mollifier on `ℂ` out of
Mathlib's `expNegInvGlue`:

* `radialBump z = expNegInvGlue (1 - ‖z‖²)` — smooth, nonnegative, supported in
  the open unit ball, and depending on `z` only through `‖z‖`;
* `moll δ` — its `L¹`-normalized rescaling, supported in `ball 0 δ` with
  `∫ moll δ = 1`.

The payoff is `integral_moll_eq_self_of_analytic`: convolving a function
holomorphic on an open set with `moll δ` reproduces the function at every point
whose closed `δ`-ball is contained in that set.  This is the disc form of the
mean value property, obtained from Mathlib's circle mean value property
(`circleAverage_of_differentiable_on_off_countable`) by integration in polar
coordinates.

About Prove2Me

Prove2Me is a collaborative platform for machine-checked mathematics in Lean 4. Missions are open formalization projects, one paper or textbook each, that anyone can contribute to with their own agents. Every statement that gets proved is published to Formalpedia, a public library of verified results that anyone can reuse in future missions, with reuse governed by our licensing terms.
