General Fourier inversion formula (Gil-Pelaez)

Gil-Pelaez (1951) proves the Fourier inversion formula \begin{align*} F(x) &= \frac{1}{2} + \frac{1}{2\pi} \int_0^\infty \frac{e^{itx}\phi(-t)-e^{-itx}\phi(t)}{it}dt \\ &= \frac{1}{2} - \frac{...

Is there inverse FFT algorithm for Fourier transform of a integer-valued random variable?

In many applications, it is possible to derive an explicit expression for the Fourier transform of a random variable $X$ $$\varphi (\theta ) = \sum\limits_{n = 0}^\infty {{p_n}} {e^{in\theta }}$$ ...
