Can we extend the twisted Poisson Summation formula with functions having a singularity in zero?

The following "twisted" Poisson Summation formula for $\chi$ primitive of conductor $q$ : $$ \sum_{n\in\mathbb{Z}}\chi(n)f\left(\frac{nx}{\sqrt{q}}\right) = \frac{A}{x}\sum_{n\in\mathbb{Z}}\bar\chi(n)...

Uncertainty principle: minimize $\int_{-\infty}^\infty |t| |\widehat{f}(t)|^2 dt$ for $f$ of compact support

This is a question of uncertainty-principle type stemming from Eigenvalue of a convolution and a restriction? Let $f:\mathbb{R}\to \mathbb{R}$ be even, absolutely continuous and supported in $[-\frac{...

Function that is (essentially) a self-convolution but not a multiple of a self-convolution

Call a function $F:\mathbb{R}\to C$ nice if it is of the form $F = f\ast \tilde{f}$, where $\tilde{f}(x) = \overline{f(-x)}$. (Of course nice functions are precisely those whose Fourier transform is ...

Functions such that the *integral* of the Fourier transform is non-negative?

Let $f:\mathbb{R}\to \mathbb{R}$ be in $L^1$, with its Fourier transform $\widehat{f}$ also in $L^1$. What is a necessary and sufficient condition on $f$ so that $$\int_{-\infty}^x \widehat{f}(t) dt \...

Three optimization problems of uncertainty principle/Paley-Wiener type

Let $\phi:\mathbb{R}\to\mathbb{R}$ be an even function with support on $[-1,1]$. Assume that it is in $L^1\cap L^2$ and that its Fourier transform is also in $L^1\cap L^2$. Assume as well that $|\phi|...

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\...

On uniform or simple convergence of Poisson Summation formula

Under good conditions on an even function $f(x)$ we have the Poisson Summation formula ($x>0$): $$f(0) + 2 \sum\limits_{n =1}^{\infty} f(nx)= \frac{1}{x} \left( \hat{f}(0) + 2 \sum\limits_{n =1}^{\...
