The inversion formula for the square root of a positive function
Let $f\in L^1(\mathbb{R})$. Suppose that $\hat{f}$, the Fourier transform of $f$, is a positive function in $C_0(\mathbb{R})$. Does there exists any function $g\in L^1(\mathbb{R})$ with $|\hat{g}|^2=\...

Decay of Laplace (or Mellin) transform beyond region of convergence?
Let $f:[0,\infty)\to \mathbb{R}$ be a piecewise differentiable function with $f(0)=0$ and $f'(t)$ of bounded variation. Its Laplace transform $\mathcal{L}f$ converges for $\Re s > 0$. Assume it can ...

For $\Phi$ a majorant of $1_{[-1/2,1/2]}$, how small can the total variation of $\widehat\Phi$ be?
Let $\Phi:\mathbb{R}\to \mathbb{R}$ be a real-valued, symmetric, non-negative function such that $\Phi(t)\geq 1$ for $|t|\leq 1/2$. Assume furthermore that $\Phi$ and $\widehat\Phi$ are both in $L^1\...

What is the Fourier transform of this function?
Consider the function
$$
f(x_1,x_2)=|x_1x_2|^{-\alpha/2}\int_{\mathbb{R}} \frac{e^{it(x_1+u)}-1}{i(x_1+u)} \frac{e^{it(x_2-u)}-1}{i(x_2-u)} |u|^{-\beta}du.
$$
It is known that $f(x_1,x_2)\in L^2(\...

$L^p$ norm of Fourier transform of function composed with a diffeomorphism
Suppose $f$ is a compactly supported smooth function from $\mathbb{R}^n$ to $\mathbb{C}$ and $A$ is a diffeomorphism on $\mathbb{R}^n$, do we have any theorems relating the $L^p$ norm of $\hat{f}$ and ...

Fourier transforms exhibiting symmetries about their critical points
Upon looking at the graphs of various Fourier sine and cosine transforms (ones without Dirac deltas in their domain) I've noticed a pattern that is probably already known, but that I thought would be ...

Integrability of Fourier transform of truncated fractional power
Is the Fourier transform of the function $f$ which agrees with $1_{[-1.1]}|x|^\alpha$ on $[-1,1]$ and then decays very fast to zero to become a compactly supported continuous function, is in $L^1(\...

Functional equation with Fourier transform
What are the continuous functions $f$ such that on $\mathbb{R}^{+*}$:
$$f(x) - \frac{C}{x} \hat{f}(\frac{1}{x}) =x^{\alpha}$$
Where $\hat{f}$ is the Fourier transform of $f(|x|)$ and $C$ a constant....

Resolvent of the operator
Consider the Laplace operator defined on the biggest possible subset of$L^{2}(R^{2})$:
$T= - \partial^{2}_{x} -\partial^{2}_{y}+x^{2}+y^{2}+ 2.i(x \frac{\partial}{\partial y}-y\frac{\partial}{\...

Convolution of $\mathscr{F}\{ \log \}(x) * \mu$ with compactly supported measure $\mu$
As I read in this post the Fourier transform of $\psi(\lambda) = \log{|\lambda|}$ must be interpreted in distributional sense and it is given by:
$$\mathscr{F}\{\psi\}(x)=-2\pi \gamma \delta(x)-\pi \...
