About this symbol
Small delta stands for a tiny change in maths and physics, smaller than the Δ of an ordinary change. Leopold Kronecker gave his name to the Kronecker delta, δ with two subscripts, which is 1 when they match and 0 when they do not, and Paul Dirac used δ for the delta function in quantum mechanics.
