Bump function: Applications & Standards

In mathematical analysis, a bump function is a localized auxiliary function, usually chosen to be smooth and to have compact support. Bump functions are commonly used as cutoff functions, for example functions that are equal to 1 on a prescribed set and vanish outside a larger set, and as standard examples of kernels used to construct mollifiers.
