The discrete Fourier transform's Gaussian-like eigenvector
I have the $N$x$N$ matrix below where $N$ is a power of 2 (usually 64 or 256) and $\omega = 2\pi/N$. What is its largest eigenvalue?

Fast Fourier transform for graph Laplacian?
In the case of a regularly-sampled scalar-valued signal $f$ on the real line, we can construct a discrete linear operator $A$ such that $A(f)$ approximates $\partial^2 f / \partial x^2$. One way to ...
