If $f\in L^1({\mathbb R})$ it is proved that $\lim_{S\to\infty}\lVert f-f\ast D_S\rVert=0$, where $D_S(x)=\sin(Sx)/(\pi x)$ is the Dirichlet kernel and $\lVert f\rVert = \sup_{\alpha<\beta}|\int_{\alpha}^{\beta}f(x)\,dx|$ is the Alexiewicz…
The Fourier transform is naturally defined for integrable functrions. Otherwise, it should be stipulated in which sense the Fourier transform is understood. We consider some class of radial and, generally saying, nonintegrable functions.…
For any polynomial $p$ on $\mathbf{C}^{n}$, a variety $ V_{p} = \{z \in \mathbf{C}^{n} ; p(z)=0 \} $ will be considered. Let $\text{Exp}(V_{p})$ be the space of holomorphic functions of expotential growth on $V_{p}$. We shall prove that the…
Let $G$ be a semi-direct product $G=A\times_\phi K$ with $A$ Abelian and $K$ compact. We characterize spread-out probability measures on $G$ that are mixing by convolutions by means of their Fourier transforms. A key tool is a spectral…
The classical Fourier transform is, in essence, a way to take data and extract components (in the form of complex exponentials) which are invariant under cyclic shifts. We consider a case in which the components must instead be invariant…
The aim of this paper is to pursue the investigation of the phase retrieval problem for the fractional Fourier transform $\ff\_\alpha$ started by the second author. We here extend a method of A.E.J.M Janssen to show that there is a…
This paper studies the effects on Zernike coefficients of aperture scaling, translation and rotation, when a given aberrated wavefront is described on the Zernike polynomial basis. It proposes a new analytical method for computing the…
Many stochastic processes are defined on special geometrical objects like spheres and cones. We describe how tools from harmonic analysis, i.e. Fourier analysis on groups, can be used to investigate probability density functions (pdfs) on…
Analytic expressions for the Fourier transforms of the Chebyshev and Legendre polynomials are derived, and the latter is used to find a new representation for the half-order Bessel functions. The numerical implementation of the so-called…
Let $X$ be a complete, simply connected harmonic manifold with sectional curvatures $K$ satisfying $K \leq -1$, and let $\partial X$ denote the boundary at infinity of $X$. Let $h > 0$ denote the mean curvature of horospheres in $X$, and…
As for the Fourier transforms of positive and integrable functions supported in the unit interval, we make a list of improvements for P\'olya's results on the distribution of their positive zeros and give new sufficient conditions under…
This paper is a companion paper to [G4], where sharp estimates are proven for Fourier transforms of compactly supported functions built out of two-dimensional real-analytic functions. The theorems of [G4] are stated in a rather general…
The Fourier transform plays a central role in many geometric and combinatorial problems cast in vector spaces over finite fields. If a set admits optimal $L^\infty$ bounds on its Fourier transform (that is, it is a Salem set), then it can…
Associated with a given suitable function, or a measure, on $\mathbb{R}$, we introduce a correlation function, so that the Wronskian of the Fourier transform of the function is the Fourier transform of the corresponding correlation…
Fourier methods are fundamental tools to analyze random fields. Statistical structures of homogeneous Gaussian random fields are completely characterized by the power spectrum. In non-Gaussian random fields, polyspectra, higher-order…
The nonlinear Fourier transform discussed in these notes is the map from the potential of a one dimensional discrete Dirac operator to the transmission and reflection coefficients thereof. Emphasis is on this being a nonlinear variant of…
We study Fourier transforms of holonomic D-modules on the complex affine line and show that their enhanced solution complexes are described by a twisted Morse theory. We thus recover and even strengthen the well-known formula for their…
We show rigidity results for the operator equations T(f.g) = Tf.Tg, T(f*g) = Tf.Tg and T(f.g) = Tf*Tg for bijective operators T acting on sufficently large spaces of smooth functions. Typically a condition like |T(f.g) - Tf.Tg| < a for all…
This article establishes a real-variable argument for Zygmund's theorem on almost everywhere convergence of strong arithmetic means of partial sums of Fourier series on $\mathbb{T}$, up to passing to a subsequence. Our approach extends to,…
We study the question under which conditions the zero set of a (cross-) Wigner distribution W (f, g) or a short-time Fourier transform is empty. This is the case when both f and g are generalized Gaussians, but we will construct less…
