SUMMARY

The discussion centers on the identification of left and right Haar measures for the group of non-zero real numbers under multiplication, specifically using the functions x^-2dxdy and x^-1dxdy. The function f(x) = x^-1 is confirmed as both a left and right Haar measure, as it satisfies the integral condition for any positive k, a, and b. The integral from a to b of 1/x dx equals the integral from ka to kb of 1/x dx, demonstrating the invariance required for Haar measures.

1. x^-2dxdy and x^-1dxdy are left haar measure and right haar measure respectively how?
 
Physics news on Phys.org
[itex]f(x) = x^-1[/itex] looks like a (left and right) Haar measure for the group of non-zero real numbers under multiplication since for each [itex]k > 0, a> 0, b> 0[/itex]

[tex]\int_a^b \frac{1}{x} dx = \int_{ka}^{kb} \frac{1}{x} dx[/tex]

You did not state your question clearly. Are you asking us to find a group for which the given function is a left or right Haar measure? Or have you been given some group for the functions that you mentioned and merely wish to know how to do the integration that tests whether the function is a Haar measure?
