Questions tagged [fourier-analysis]

Fourier analysis, also known as spectral analysis, encompasses all sorts of Fourier expansions, including Fourier series, Fourier transform and the discrete Fourier transform (and relatives). The non-commutative analog is (representation-theory).

For a single-variable function $f(x)$, the Fourier sine series is: $$f(x)=\sum_{n=1}^\infty b_n\sin(\frac{n\pi}lx)\quad\text{where}\quad b_n=\frac2l\int_0^lf(x)\sin(\frac{n\pi}lx)dx$$ However, I ...

Let $C$ the fourth-order tensor of elastic constants which can be seen as as a linear transformation from Sym into Sym (matrices). We denote the action of $C$ on a symmetric matrix $A$ as $C[A]$. ...

The exercise in question. A function is of moderate decrease if $|f(x)|\leq \frac{C}{1+x^2}$ for some constant $C$. I can’t seem to find a way to show that $\hat{f}(ξ)$ is of moderate decrease.

I am searching for a good reference for finding the fourier inversion theorem for compact (abelian, or non abelian) groups (we shall denote such a group by $G$). In particular, I would like to see a ...

Suppose we have a Schwartz function $\varphi\colon \mathbb{R}\to \mathbb{R}$ supported in (0,1) such that $||\varphi||_{L^2}\leq 1$ satisfying that for all $\xi\in \mathbb{R}$, \begin{align} \sum_{l\...

For reasons not directly relevant to the question, I am constructing a function basis in $\mathbb{R}^3$ by taking the tensor product of the fourier basis (up to discretization). I must now come up ...

What I mean is that we have $T \in \mathcal{S}'(\mathbb{R}^n)$ such that for all $f \in C^\infty_c (\mathbb{R}^n)$, we have that $\mathrm{supp}(T \ast f)$ is compact, and we're asking whether $\mathrm{...

For an appropriate function $g$ and for an integer $k$, the $k^{\text{th}}$ Fourier coefficient $\widehat{g}(k)$ of $g$ is defined as $$ \widehat{g}(k):=\int_0^1g(x)e^{-2\pi ikx}dx. $$ $\textbf{...

In Grafakos' Fundamentals of Fourier Analysis, Theorem 2.8.5 states the following: Let $u \in \mathcal{S}^\prime$ (tempered distributions) and $T(\phi) = \phi \ast u \in \mathcal{S}$. Then $T$ admits ...

Question. If $f(x) = \sum f_n(x)$ is a continuous function, and its formal derivative series $g(x) = \sum f_n'(x)$ diverges at a point $x_0$, but is summable (via Abel, Borel, etc.) by some ...
