contents A density function for an algebraic invariant is a measurable function on $\mathbb{R}$ which measures the invariant on an $\mathbb{R}$-scale. This function carries a lot more information related to the invariant without seeking extra data. It has turned out to be a useful tool, which was introduced by the third author, to study the characteristic $p$ invariant, namely Hilbert-Kunz multiplicity of a homogeneous ${\bf m}$-primary ideal. Here we construct density functions $f_{A,\{I_n\}}$ for a Noetherian filtration $\{I_n\}_{n\in\mathbb{N}}$ of homogeneous ideals and $f_{A,\{\widetilde{I^n}\}}$ for a filtration given by the saturated powers of a homogeneous ideal $I$ in a standard graded domain $A$. As a consequence, we get a density function $f_{\varepsilon(I)}$ for the epsilon multiplicity $\varepsilon(I)$ of a homogeneous ideal $I$ in $A$. We further show that the function $f_{A,\{I_n\}}$ is continuous everywhere except possibly at one point, and $f_{A,\{\widetilde{I^n}\}}$ is a continuous function everywhere and is continuously differentiable except possibly at one point. As a corollary the epsilon density function $f_{\varepsilon(I)}$ is a compactly supported continuous function on $\mathbb{R}$ except at one point, such that $\int_{\mathbb{R}_{\geq 0}} f_{\varepsilon(I)} = \varepsilon(I)$. All the three functions $f_{A,\{I^n\}}$, $f_{A,\{\widetilde{I^n}\}}$ and $f_{\varepsilon(I)}$ remain invariant under passage to the integral closure of $I$. As a corollary of this theory, we observe that the `rescaled' Hilbert-Samuel multiplicities of the diagonal subalgebras form a continuous family.

A density function for an algebraic invariant is a measurable function on $\mathbb{R}$ which measures the invariant on an $\mathbb{R}$-scale. This function carries a lot more information related to the invariant without seeking extra data. It has turned out to be a useful tool, which was introduced by the third author, to study the characteristic $p$ invariant, namely Hilbert-Kunz multiplicity of a homogeneous ${\bf m}$-primary ideal. Here we construct density functions $f_{A,\{I_n\}}$ for a Noetherian filtration $\{I_n\}_{n\in\mathbb{N}}$ of homogeneous ideals and $f_{A,\{\widetilde{I^n}\}}$ for a filtration given by the saturated powers of a homogeneous ideal $I$ in a standard graded domain $A$. As a consequence, we get a density function $f_{\varepsilon(I)}$ for the epsilon multiplicity $\varepsilon(I)$ of a homogeneous ideal $I$ in $A$. We further show that the function $f_{A,\{I_n\}}$ is continuous everywhere except possibly at one point, and $f_{A,\{\widetilde{I^n}\}}$ is a continuous function everywhere and is continuously differentiable except possibly at one point. As a corollary the epsilon density function $f_{\varepsilon(I)}$ is a compactly supported continuous function on $\mathbb{R}$ except at one point, such that $\int_{\mathbb{R}_{\geq 0}} f_{\varepsilon(I)} = \varepsilon(I)$. All the three functions $f_{A,\{I^n\}}$, $f_{A,\{\widetilde{I^n}\}}$ and $f_{\varepsilon(I)}$ remain invariant under passage to the integral closure of $I$.
