Fourier transform of the unit sphere

The Fourier transform of the volume form of the (n-1)-sphere in $\mathbf R^n$ is given by the well-known formula $$ \int_{S^{n-1}}e^{i\langle\mathbf a,\mathbf u\rangle}d\sigma(\mathbf u) = (2\pi)^{\nu ...

Reference request: Fourier transform on the multiplicative group of real numbers

Let us consider the three groups $(\mathbb{R},+)$, $(\mathbb{Z}/2\mathbb{Z},+)$ and $(\mathbb{R}^\times,\cdot)$ (where $\mathbb{R}^\times := \mathbb{R} \setminus \{0\}$). We endow $\mathbb{R}$ with ...

Prove uniqueness of Radon transform without using Fourier transform

The uniqueness of Radon transform can be expressed by the following claim (I assumed that the function has compact support for simplicity): If a continuous function with compact support has zero ...

Result of Beurling concerning absolute convergence of Fourier series of |f|

Let $f\in L^{1}(\mathbb T)$ and define the Fourier coefficient of $f$ : $\hat{f}(n)=\frac{1}{2\pi} \int _{-\pi}^{\pi} f(t) e^{-int} dt; (n\in \mathbb Z)$ and we put, $$A(\mathbb T):= \{f\in L^{1}(\...

Technical question about a Fourier transform

I would like to know if there is an explicit expression for the Fourier transform of the following function: $$f(x)=\mathbb{1}_{(0,\infty)}e^{-x-ix^2},$$ or to know where I can find some techniques to ...
