Laplace Transform in the context of Gelfand/Pontryagin
Questions:
Is there a class of objects (presumably related to locally compact abelian groups) for which the quasi-characters canonically generalize the Laplace transform?
If not, is there a ...

When some Fourier coefficients are fixed, can we control the extremals of the function?
Let $n$ be a odd number. Does there exist any $2\pi$-periodic continuous function $f
:\mathbb{R}\to \mathbb{R}$ such that the following points simultaneously hold?
1- $-n\lneqq f_{\min}$ (where $f_{\...

$|\partial $ as Fourier multiplier
I have the following nonlinear dispersive PDEs
$$i \partial_t u- \partial_x^2 u =|\partial_x| |u|^2$$
where $f$ is some nice complex-valued function.
I am trying to use the ansatz $u(t,x) = e^{i \...

Fourier transform either changes sign infinitely often far out or is continuous at $x=0$
I am reading a book "Fourier Series and Integrals" by Dym & McKean.
There is an exercise (Page 106):
Exercise: Check that if $f$ is a real, even, summable function and
if $f(0+)$ and $f(0-)$...

Connection between the Fourier transform of f and |f|
If $f\in L^p(R)$ with $1\leq p\leq 2$, then Hausdorff-Young inequality implies that the Fourier transform $\widehat{f}\in L^{p'}$, $p'$ is the dual exponent of $p$, and
$$
\|\widehat{f}\|_{L^{p'}}\...

When one can expect $\widehat{(fg)} = \hat{f} \ast \hat{g}$; $f, g\in L^{1} (G)$?
Let $f, g \in L^{1}(\mathbb T)= L^{1} ([-\pi, \pi))$. We define, the Fourier transform of $f$ as follows:
$$\hat{f}(n)=\frac{1}{2\pi}\int_{-\pi}^{\pi} f(t) e^{-int} dt, \ (n\in \mathbb Z).$$
It is ...
