In this paper we prove pointwise and distributional Fourier transform inversion theorems for functions on the real line that are locally of bounded variation, while in a neighbourhood of infinity are Lebesgue integrable or have polynomial…
The Fourier transform of a bounded measurable function, $f$, on the real line is shown to be the second distributional derivative of a H\"older continuous function. The Fourier transform is written as the difference of $\int_{-1}^1…
For each $f\!:\!\mathbb{R}\to\mathbb{C}$ that is Henstock--Kurzweil integrable on the real line, or is a distribution in the completion of the space of Henstock--Kurzweil integrable functions in the Alexiewicz norm, it is shown that the…
We give a rigorous derivation of the Fourier transform of the Heaviside function within a framework for tempered distributions that is suitable for undergraduate engineering and mathematics students. The proofs rely on fundamental concepts…
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.…
We give a simple proof of the Fourier Inversion Theorem, using the methods of nonstandard analysis.
For each $f\in L^p({\mathbb R)}$ ($1\leq p<\infty$) it is shown that the Fourier transform is the distributional derivative of a H\"older continuous function. For each $p$ a norm is defined so that the space Fourier transforms is…
We propose a novel definition of Fourier transform, with the property that the transform of a real function is again a real function (without doubling the number of real components). We prove the inversion theorem for the novel definition,…
We prove an explicit formula for the Fourier transform of $f(u(t))$, given the Fourier transform of $f(t)$, assuming $f\in L^2(-\infty,\infty)$ and $u$ sufficiently well behaved. We illustrate its usefulness by calculating the Fourier…
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…
We consider the $\alpha$-sine transform of the form $T_\alpha f(y)=\int_0^\infty\vert\sin(xy)\vert^\alpha f(x)dx$ for $\alpha>-1$, where $f$ is an integrable function on $\mathbb{R}_+$. First, the inversion of this transform for $\alpha>1$…
We prove an inversion theorem for the Fourier transform defined for normal functions, in the case when such functions are of moderate decrease, and in dimensions 2 and 3. This improves on Carleson's general almost everywhere convergence…
Usually such area of mathematics as differential equations acts as a consumer of results given by functional analysis. This article will give an example of the reverse interaction of these two fields of knowledge. Namely, the derivation and…
In this work we define a Fourier transform for each $f\in L^{p(\cdot)}(\mathbb{R})$, for a large class of exponent functions $p(\cdot)$, as the distributional derivative of a H\"older continuous function. A norm is defined in the space of…
We revisit the Fourier transform of a Hankel function, of considerable importance in the theory of knife edge diffraction. Our approach is based directly upon the underlying Bessel equation, which admits manipulation into an alternate…
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…
The Fourier transform is considered as a Henstock--Kurzweil integral. Sufficient conditions are given for the existence of the Fourier transform and necessary and sufficient conditions are given for it to be continuous. The…
In this paper, we study the inversion formula for recovering a function from its windowed Fourier transform. We give a rigorous proof for an inversion formula which is known in engineering. We show that the integral involved in the formula…
The Riemann-Lebesgue Lemma says that the Fourier transform of an absolutely integrable function on the real line tends to zero as the transform parameter tends to infinity. When the integral is allowed to converge conditionally, the…
If $F$ is a continuous function on the real line and $f=F'$ is its distributional derivative then the continuous primitive integral of distribution $f$ is $\int_a^bf=F(b)-F(a)$. This integral contains the Lebesgue, Henstock--Kurzweil and…
