Fourier transform inversion theorem for a function not in L1 or L2

For $\frac{1}{4}<a<1$ consider the following function: $$f(x)=\frac{|x|^{\frac{1}{2}}}{(x^2+1)^{a+ib}}$$ If $1>a>\frac{1}{2}$ then $f(x) \in L^2$ and the Fourier inversion theorem can be ...

Injectivity of the Fourier transform on $L^1$ without inversion

Is there a proof of the injectivity of the Fourier transform on $L^1({\bf R})$ that does not rely on an inversion formula? The proofs I have seen in the literature ultimately rely either on the ...

Inequality about the Fourier transform: $\Vert u \Vert_{L^k} \le \Vert \mathcal{F}(u) \Vert_{L^m}$ (where $1 \le m \le 2$ and $m,k$ Holder conjugates)

How can I prove the following inequality about the Fourier transform? $$\Vert u \Vert_{L^k(\mathbb{R}^N)} \le \Vert \mathcal{F}(u) \Vert_{L^m(\mathbb{R}^N)}$$ for $1 \le m \le 2$ and $m,k$ Holder ...

Is flatness of Wigner Ville Distribution of error function in Fourier Approximation possible? Is it required?

For a real valued function $f(t)$ I want to check the information left, after taking a Fourier partial sum/integral. Let $\hat{f}$ be its Fourier transform and let $$e_{\omega}(t) = f(t) - \int\...

Does the Fourier transform preserve the separation property?

The space of Schwartz functions on the plane is denoted by $\mathcal{S}$. The usual multiplication and the convolution multiplication on $\mathcal{S}$ are denoted by $m_1$ and $m_2$, respectively. ...

Fourier transform surjective on $L^p(\mathbb{R}^n)$ for $p \in (1,2)$?

I know that $F_2:L^2 \rightarrow L^2$ is of course unitary, whereas $F_1:L^1 \rightarrow C_0$ is injective but not surjective. This can be seen by looking at the dual map. Riesz-Thorin gives us that ...

Fractional Sobolev spaces on the circle with a Littlewood-Paley characterisation

Fractional Sobolev space $H^s_p(\mathbb R), s>0, 1<p<\infty$ is a space of tempered distributions $f$ that satisfy $F^{-1}((1+|\xi|^2)^{s/2} F(f)) \in L_p(\mathbb R)$. Here, $F$ denotes the ...

Proof of a Fourier pair with Bessel functions?

How can we prove that the Fourier transform of the function $$ f(x) = \begin{cases} (a^2-x^2)^{c/2} BesselJ[c,b\sqrt{a^2-x^2}] & \text{for }x^2 < a^2\\ 0 & \text{otherwise} \end{cases} $$ ...

I noticed by numerical and some explicit calculations for a few examples that for real-valued finitely supported functions $\phi \in L^2(\mathbb{R})$ we have that $T(x):= \sum_{n \in \mathbb{Z}} |\...

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}^{\...

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'}}\...

How do functions operate in a Sobolev space $H^{s}$?

Let $s>\frac{1}{2};$ and define a Sobolev space as follows: $$H^{s}(\mathbb R)=\{f\in L^{2}(\mathbb R):[\int_{\mathbb R} |\hat{f}(\xi)|^{2}(1+|\xi|^{2})^{s}d\xi]^{1/2}<\infty \}.$$ Fact: Let $m$ ...

$f, \hat{f} \in L^{p}\cap L^{\infty} \implies f\in B(\mathbb R)$ (algebra of Fourier- Stieltjes transforms )?

For a bounded complex Borel measure $\mu$ on $\mathbb R$, we define, its Fourier-Stieltjes transform, $\hat{\mu}(y)= \int_{\mathbb R} e^{-2\pi ix\cdot y} d\mu(x); (y\in \mathbb R).$ Let $1\leq p \leq ...

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 ...
