The Attempt at a Solution
Let f(x) = 1-D(x), where D(x) is the Dirichlet function
Let g(x) = D(x)
(f+g)(x) = 1
(f*g)(x) = D(x) - D(x)^2 <-- where I'm befuddled
I know that D(x) can be written as the limit of cos(m!*pi*x)^(2n) as n, m --> infinity and that D(x)^2 is then equal to cos(m!*pi*x)^(4n). Since n --> infinity, are D(x) and D(x)^2 equivalent?
