Chapter 1 The Fourier Fourier transforms as integralsThere are several ways to define the Fourier Transform of a functionf:R C. In this section, we define it using an integral representation and statesome basic uniqueness and inversion properties, without proof. Thereafter,we will consider the Transform as being defined as a suitable limit of Fourierseries, and will prove the results stated 1 Letf:R R. The Fourier Transform off L1(R), denotedbyF[f](.), is given by the integral:F[f](x) :=1 2 f(t) exp( ixt)dtforx Rfor which the integral exists. We have theDirichlet conditionfor inversion of Fourier 1 Letf:R R. Suppose that (1) |f|dtconverges and (2)in any finite interval,f,f are piecewise continuous with at most finitely manymaxima/minima/discontinuities.
tions f as di erentiable everywhere, vanishing at t= ˇLand identically zero outside [ ˇL;ˇL]. We rewrite this as f(t) = X1 n=1 eint L 1 2ˇL f^(n L) which looks like a Riemann sum approximation to the integral f(t) = 1 2ˇ Z 1 1 f^( )ei td (1.2.1) 3
