Forms: Dirichlet energies [plural]
Etymology: Named after German mathematician Peter Gustav Lejeune Dirichlet (1805-1859), who made significant contributions to the theory of Fourier series. Head templates: {{en-noun}} Dirichlet energy (plural Dirichlet energies)
  1. (mathematical analysis, functional analysis, Fourier analysis) A quadratic functional which, given a real function defined on an open subset of ℝⁿ, yields a real number that is a measure of how variable said function is.
