We focus on the cyclic groups $\\Z/nZ$, the integers $\\Z$, the Torus $\\T$ and the real line. We also ask a related question for the twisted convolution.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2009-12-16T13:01:23.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "42A38", "42A85", "42B10", "43A25" ], "keywords": [ "fourier transform", "characterization", "continuous linear map", "convolution product", "cyclic groups" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2009arXiv0912.3129J" } } }
