نویسنده
چکیده
Assuming that both a function and its Fourier transform are dominated by a Gaussian of large variance, it is shown that the Hermite coefficients of the function decay exponentially. A sharp estimate for the rate of exponential decay is obtained in terms of the variance, and in the limiting case (when the variance becomes so small that the Gaussian is its own Fourier transform), Hardy’s theorem on Fourier transform pairs is obtained. A quantitative result on the confinement of particle-like states of a quantum harmonic oscillator is obtained. A stronger form of the result is conjectured. Further, it is shown how Hardy’s theorem may be derived from a weak version of confinement without using complex analysis.

On the Hermite expansions of functions from Hardy class by
Considering functions f on Rn for which both f and f̂ are bounded by the Gaussian e 1 2 a|x| , 0 < a < 1 we show that their Fourier-Hermite coefficients have exponential decay. Optimal decay is obtained for O(n)−finite functions thus extending the one dimensional result of Vemuri [11].
متن کاملHigher order Riesz transforms for Hermite expansions
In this paper, we consider the Riesz transform of higher order associated with the harmonic oscillator [Formula: see text], where Δ is the Laplacian on [Formula: see text]. Moreover, the boundedness of Riesz transforms of higher order associated with Hermite functions on the Hardy space is proved.
متن کاملFormulas of Ramanujan for the Power Series Coefficients of Certain Quotients of Eisenstein Series
In their last published paper [9], [16, pp. 310–321], G. H. Hardy and S. Ramanujan derived infinite series representations for the coefficients of certain modular forms of negative weight which are not analytic in the upper half-plane. In particular, they examined in detail the coefficients of the reciprocal of the Eisenstein series E6(τ). While confined to the sanitarium, Matlock House, in 191...
متن کاملAn Analogue of Hardy’s Theorem for Very Rapidly Decreasing Functions on Semi-simple Lie Groups
A celebrated theorem of L. Schwartz asserts that a function f on R is ‘rapidly decreasing’ (or in the ‘Schwartz class’) iff its Fourier transform is ‘rapidly decreasing’. Since this theorem is of fundamental importance in harmonic analysis, there is a whole body of literature devoted to generalizing this result to other Lie groups. (For example, see [18].) In sharp contrast to Schwartz’s theore...
متن کاملInfinite Families of Exact Sums of Squares Formulas, Jacobi Elliptic Functions, Continued Fractions, and Schur Functions
In this paper we derive many infinite families of explicit exact formulas involving either squares or triangular numbers, two of which generalize Jacobi’s 4 and 8 squares identities to 4n2 or 4n(n + 1) squares, respectively, without using cusp forms. In fact, we similarly generalize to infinite families all of Jacobi’s explicitly stated degree 2, 4, 6, 8 Lambert series expansions of classical t...
