On the Laplace transforms of retarded,Lorentz-invariant functions

Let ø(t) (t ∈ $\text{R}$ⁿ) be a retarded, Lorentz-invariant function which satisfies, in addition, condition (c). We call “R” the family of such functions. Let f(z) be the Laplace transform of ø(t) ∈ $\text{R}$. We prove (Theorem 1) that f(z) can be expressed as a K-transform (formula (I, 2; 1)). We apply this formula to evaluate several Laplace transforms. We show that it affords simple proofs of important known results. Formula (I, 2; 1) is an effective complement to L. Schwartz' method of evaluating Fourier transforms via Laplace transforms (“Théorie des distributions,” p. 264, Hermann, Paris, 1966). We think this is the most useful application of our formula.     

On Fourier transforms of functions of bounded type in tubular domains

We obtain a necessary and sufficient condition in terms of the Fourier transform under which an analytic function of bounded type in a tubular domain belongs to the Hardy class H ¹(?₊ ⁿ ).     

On Hardy and Bellman transforms of the Fourier coefficients of functions in symmetric spaces

The author finds sufficient conditions for invariance of a symmetric function space under the Hardy and Bellman transforms in terms of the fundamental function of the space. Under some additional assumptions about the space, these conditions are proved to be necessary.Translated from Matematicheskie Zametki, Vol. 53, No. 4, pp. 3–12, April, 1993.In conclusion, we use the opportunity to express our deep gratitude to B.I.Golubov for his constant attention to this work and also to E.M.Semënov for valuable remarks on the original version of this article.     

Fourier transforms and bent functions on finite groups

Let G be a finite nonabelian group. Bent functions on G are defined by the Fourier transforms at irreducible representations of G. We introduce a dual basis \({\widehat{G}}\), consisting of functions on G determined by its unitary irreducible representations, that will play a role similar to the dual group of a finite abelian group. Then we define the Fourier transforms as functions on \({\widehat{G}}\), and obtain characterizations of a bent function by its Fourier transforms (as functions on \({\widehat{G}}\)). For a function f from G to another finite group, we define a dual function \({\widetilde{f}}\) on \({\widehat{G}}\), and characterize the nonlinearity of f by its dual function \({\widetilde{f}}\). Some known results are direct consequences. Constructions of bent functions and perfect nonlinear functions are also presented.     

On Fourier transforms of distribution semigroups

A one-to-one correspondence is established between Fourier transforms of ultradistribution semigroups in the sense of Beurling and some class of pseudoresolvents characterized by conditions concerning their domains of existence and growth.     

On the Fourier cosine-Kontorovich-Lebedev generalized convolution transforms

We deal with several classes of integral transformations of the form $$f(x) \to D\int_{\mathbb{R}_ + ^2 } {\frac{1} {u}} \left( {e^{ - u\cosh (x + v)} + e^{ - u\cosh (x - v)} } \right)h(u)f(v)dudv,$$ , where D is an operator. In case D is the identity operator, we obtain several operator properties on L _p (?₊) with weights for a generalized operator related to the Fourier cosine and the Kontorovich-Lebedev integral transforms. For a class of differential operators of infinite order, we prove the unitary property of these transforms on L ₂(?₊) and define the inversion formula. Further, for an other class of differential operators of finite order, we apply these transformations to solve a class of integro-differential problems of generalized convolution type.

Fourier transforms of smooth functions on certain nilpotent Lie groups

The authors consider irreducible representations $\text{π ?}\text{N}\text{?}$ of a nilpotent Lie group and define a Fourier transform for Schwartz class (and other) functions φ on N by forming the kernels K_φ(x, y) of the trace class operations π_φ = ∝_Nφ(n)π_ndn, regarding the π as modeled in L²(R^k) for all π in general position. For a special class of groups they show that the models, and parameters λ labeling the representations in general position, can be chosen so the joint behavior of the kernels K_φ(x, y, λ) can be interpreted in a useful way. The variables (x, y, λ) run through a Zariski open set in Rⁿ, n = dim N. The authors show there is a polynomial map u = A(x, y, λ) that is a birational isomorphism A: Rⁿ → Rⁿ with the following properties. The Fourier transforms F₁φ = K_φ(x, y, λ) all factor through A to give “rationalized” Fourier transforms Fφ(u) such that Fφ ° A = F₁φ. On the rationalized parameter space a function f(u) is of the form F_φ = f ? f is Schwartz class on Rⁿ. If polynomial operators T?P(N) are transferred to operators $\text{T}\text{?}$ on Rⁿ such that $\text{F(Tφ) =}\text{T}\text{?}\text{(Fφ), P(N)}$ is transformed isomorphically to P(Rⁿ).     

Asymptotic expansions of Fourier transforms of functions with logarithmic singularities

Asymptotic expansion as x → +∞ is obtained for the infinite Fourier integral $\text{F(x) = ∝}{}_0{}^{\mathrm{\infty }}\text{?(t) e}{}^{\mathrm{ixt}}\text{dt}$, in which $\text{?(t)}$ has a logarithmic singularity of the type t^α?1(?ln t)^β at the origin. Here, Re α > 0 and β is an arbitrary complex number.

On the degree of continuity and smoothness of sine and cosine Fourier transforms of Lebesgue integrable functions

We consider complex-valued functions f∈L ¹(ℝ₊), where ℝ₊:=[0,∞), and prove sufficient conditions under which the sine Fourier transform [^(f)]_s\hat{f}_{s} and the cosine Fourier transform [^(f)]_c\hat{f}_{c} belong to one of the Lipschitz classes Lip (α) and lip (α) for some 0<α≦1, or to one of the Zygmund classes Zyg (α) and zyg (α) for some 0<α≦2. These sufficient conditions are best possible in the sense that they are also necessary if f(x)≧0 almost everywhere.
