Why $\int_{S^{n-1}} |\hat{f}(w)|^2d\sigma(w) < \infty$?

Let $f\in L^p(\Bbb R^n)$ and $S^{n-1}$ be the Unit sphere. Why $\int_{S^{n-1}} |\hat{f}(w)|^2d\sigma(w)<\infty$ when $1<p<2$. $\hat{f}$ is the Fourier transform fora function f.

Does the (distributional) support of the Fourier transform of an $L^p$-function with $p<\infty$ have positive measure?

Suppose that $f \in L^p(\mathbb R^n)$ such that $1\leq p < \infty$. Let $\hat f$ be the Fourier transform of $f$. Clearly, if $p=1$ or $p=2$ then the support of $\hat f$ has positive Lebesgue ...

Proof that elements of Beppo-Levi-like spaces are functions (and not just distributions)?

Context. I am trying to undestand the theory underlying "Beppo-Levi"-like spaces defined as $$ H = \left\{f\in {\cal S}'(\mathbb{R}^d) \;\left| \; t\times\widetilde{f} \in {\cal L}^2(\mathbb{...

Fourier transform of a Radon measure [closed]

Let $\mu$ be a Radon measure on $\mathbb R^d$ with finite total mass: I guess that it is a tempered distribution on $\mathbb R^d$ and thus one may consider its Fourier transform. Now I guess that its ...

Fourier inversion formula for compactly supported distributions

I know that the Fourier transform of a compactly support distribution $u\in \mathscr{E}'(\mathbb{R}^{n})$ is smooth and also satisfies $$ |\hat{u}(\xi)|\leqslant C_{N}(1+|\xi|)^N,\label{1}\tag{1} $$ ...

Fourier transform of a Lorentz invariant generalized function

Consider on $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$ the indefinite quadratic form defining the Minkowski metric $$B(p)=(p^0)^2-(p^1)^2-\dots-(p^n)^2.$$ Let $\mu$ be a generalized function on $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$ which is ...

About the Fourier transform of the logarithm function

I want to calculate / simplify: $$\mathcal{F} (\ln(|x|)\mathcal{F(f)}(x))=\mathcal{F} (\ln(|x|)) \star f$$ where $\mathcal{F}$ is the Fourier transform ($\mathcal[f](\xi)=\int_{\mathbb R}f(x)e^{ix\...

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 ...

Fourier transform of delta function restricted to sphere [duplicate]

I want to compute $\mathcal{F}^{-1}\{\delta(|\cdot|-1)\}(x)$, which exactly means the following computation: $$f(x) = (2\pi)^{-n/2} \int_{|\xi|=1}e^{ix\cdot\xi}\mathrm{d}\xi, \mbox{ where }~ \xi \in \...

Extension of Paley-Wiener-Schwartz theorem to vector-valued distributions

Let $H_{j} := (H_{j}, \| \cdot \|_{H_{j}} ), j=0,1$ be a Hilbert space, and set \begin{equation*} {\mathscr S}'(\mathbb{R}^{n}, H_0; H_1) := {\mathscr L}( {\mathscr S}(\mathbb{R}^{n}, H_0), H_1) \end{...

Half Poisson summation

Suppose $f$ is a Schwartz function on $\mathbb{R}$. Is there a closed formula for $$\sum_0^\infty \hat{f}(n)$$ where $\hat{f}$ is the $n$-th Fourier coefficient of $f$?

A question about Fourier transform of function of the type $Q(x)(1+P(x))^{z}$

For simplicity, consider in $\mathbb{R}^3$, and the Fourier transform of the following function $$f=(x_1+x_2+x_3)(1+|x|^2+x_1^2(x_2^2+x_3^2)+x_2^2x_3^2)^{-t+is},~~ \frac12<t<1,~~s\in \mathbb{R}.$...
