WHAT DOES MOLLIFIES MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Mollifier

In mathematics, mollifiers are smooth functions with special properties, used in distribution theory to create sequences of smooth functions approximating nonsmooth functions, via convolution. Intuitively, given a function which is rather irregular, by convolving it with a mollifier the function gets "mollified", that is, its sharp features are smoothed, while still remaining close to the original nonsmooth function. They are also known as Friedrichs mollifiers after Kurt Otto Friedrichs, who introduced them.
