Littlewood-Paley theory and norm estimation
In the paper "A Convolution Inequality Concerning Cantor-Lebesgue Measures", the Littlewood-Paley theory is used to estimate the norm of multiplier operator in Lemma 1.
It is claimed that Lemma 2 is ...

Calculating hyperbolic Fourier series
Question:
is it possible to uniquely express functions locally as infinite sums of hyperbolic sines and cosines
$f(x)=\sum\limits_{i=0}^\infty \alpha_i\sinh(i\cdot x)+\beta_i\cosh(i\cdot x)$
or even ...

Convolution of $\mathscr{F}\{ \log \}(x) * \mu$ with compactly supported measure $\mu$
As I read in this post the Fourier transform of $\psi(\lambda) = \log{|\lambda|}$ must be interpreted in distributional sense and it is given by:
$$\mathscr{F}\{\psi\}(x)=-2\pi \gamma \delta(x)-\pi \...

Is this formula for 2D Fourier integral of diffraction kernel correct?
Well I have a function parametrized by $z$
$$g_z(x,y) = \frac{z}{i \lambda r^2} e^{i k r}, \quad r = \sqrt{x^2+y^2+z^2},$$
where $\lambda > 0$ is real constant and $k = \frac{2\pi}{\lambda}$. This ...

Precise decay of density through Fourier transform
Suppose $f(x)$ is a probability density on $\mathbb{R}$. Let $\varphi(t)=\int e^{itx}f(x)dx$ denote the Fourier transform (characteristic function). It is well-known that if $\int |x|^p f(x)dx<\...

Variance of spectral density is related to the gradient of signal?
Define the frequency variance as:
$$ \sigma^2 = \int^\infty_{-\infty}\omega^2 P(\omega) d\omega$$
Where $P(\omega)$ is the spectral density function, which is the same as normalized power. Therefore,

Flat function with a spectral gap
I am looking for a sequence of functions $f_n,n\geq 1$ in $L^2(\mathbb R)$ such that $f_n$ is equal to $1$ on $[-n,n]$ and $\hat{f_n}$ vanishes on $[-1,1]$.
Actually, I would also like $f_n$ to be $...

Is Wiener amalgam spaces $W^{2,1}(\mathbb R)\subset C_0(\mathbb R)$?
I have been learning Wiener amalgam spaces.
In Wiener amalgam spaces $W(X, L^2)$, I am taking $X=\mathcal{F}L^{1}=\{f\in L^{\infty}(\mathbb R):\hat{f}\in L^{1}\},$ and $m(x)=1.$
Take $f(x)= \chi_{\...
