Airy Function - Fourier Transform

Fourier Transform

Using the definition of the Airy function, it is straightforward to show its Fourier transform is given by

\mathcal{F}(\mathrm{Ai})(k) := \int_{-\infty}^{\infty} \mathrm{Ai}(x)\ \mathrm{e}^{- 2\pi \mathrm{i} k x}\,dx = \mathrm{e}^{\frac{\mathrm{i}}{3}(2\pi k)^3}\,.

Famous quotes containing the word transform:

    “The inspired scribbler always has the gift for gossip in our common usage ... he or she can always inspire the commonplace with an uncommon flavor, and transform trivialities by some original grace or sympathy or humor or affection.”
    —Elizabeth Drew (1887–1965)
