For the adjoint of an integration operator anchored at zero, use the inner product . On the positive half-interval, reversing the triangular integration order gives
On the negative half-interval the corresponding calculation gives
These exchanges are justified by the Fubini theorem, since on a finite interval functions belong to and the absolute double integral is at most . Therefore
Adding gives on the positive half and on the negative half, exactly the prescribed . Values at zero do not matter in . Consequently
