Similarity in Navier-Stokes equation and convolution in finite abelian groups?

Let $G$ be a finite abelian group, $X = (x_g)_{g \in G}$ be a vector of variables. Set for $g \in G$: $$\tau_g(X) := \frac{1}{|G|} \sum_{\rho \text{ irred. }} \chi_{\rho}(-g) \exp(\sum_{s \in G} \chi_{...

Fourier transform without characters (Eigenfunctions of an operator)

Let's consider a very simple problem in quantum mechanics: We have, in $\mathbb R,$ a potential barrier of the form $$ V(x) = V_0 \mathbf 1_{[-a,a]}(x), $$ where $\mathbf 1_{[-a,a]}$ denotes the ...

A generalization of Weierstrass transform

As stated in this article, the Weierstrass transform of $f(x)$ is defined as: \begin{equation} W[f](x)=\frac{1}{4\pi}\int_{-\infty}^{\infty}f(y)e^{-\frac{(x-y)^{2}}{4}}dy \end{equation} which can be ...

Positivity of the Fourier transform: prove or disprove that $\operatorname{Re}(\overline{\widehat{u}}(\xi) \widehat{F\circ u}(\xi))\geq0$

Let $F:[0,\infty) \to[0,\infty)$ be increasing, $C^1$ and $L-$Lipschitz with $F(0)=0$. Let $u\in L^1 (\Bbb R^d)$, $u\geq0$ so that $F\circ u\in L^1 (\Bbb R^d)$ I would like to prove (or disprove) ...

Fourier Transform ; half space elliptic baby problem

I am attempting to look at some Liouville type theorems via a Fourier analysis approach and after looking at a baby problem I seem to be very confused. I assume this doesn't count as a research ...

A Fourier elliptic vector field on a Riemannian manifold

Motivation for this question: Let $X$ be a vector field on a manifold $M$. Obviously the differential operator $D:C^{\infty}(M)\to C^{\infty}(M)$ with $D(f)=X.f$ is not an elliptic opetator when $\...

Comparison principle for porous medium equation in Fourier variables

Let $V:[0,\infty) \to[0,\infty)$ be convex, $C^2$ with $V(0)=0$. Define $F(u): = uV'(u)-V(u) $. Let $v\in L^1 (\Bbb R^d)$, $v\geq0$ so that $F\circ v\in L^1 (\Bbb R^d)$. For fixed $\varepsilon>0$, ...

Recovering phase function using Fourier decomposition

I have a function $\phi(x): \mathbb{R} \to [0, 2 \pi)$, which describes phase of another function $$f = e^{i \phi(x)}. $$ I am interested in the following problem. If I know the function/distribution $...

Fourier transform of a Sobolev function dependent on a "parameter"

Let $u\in\mathcal{S}(\mathbb{R}^n)$, let $V\in W^{1,1}_\text{loc}(\mathbb{R}^n\times\mathbb{R}^+)$, such that $$ V(x,0)=u(x),\quad V(x,\cdot)\in C^0([0,\infty)),\quad\forall x\in\mathbb{R}^n,$$ and ...

$|\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 \...

Solvable PDEs and their Green's functions

I have a class of PDEs of the form $$ -\Box\phi(x)+\lambda\phi_0^2(x)\phi(x)=0 $$ with $\phi_0^2(x)=\sum_{n=-\infty}^\infty b_ne^{ip_n\cdot x}$. I know some exact solutions for them (see here and ...
