Set . Direct differentiation gives , so . Finiteness of at zero requires , and the other endpoint gives . The Dirichlet eigenvalues are positive: integration by parts gives , and a nonzero cannot have zero right-hand side. Thus , and the second endpoint givesDefine by its limit. This is the radial Dirichlet spectrum in three dimensions with radius . Its weighted squared norm is .
