If f is a nonzero complex-valued function defined on a finite abelian group A and f̂ is its Fourier transform, then | supp(f)|| supp(f̂)| ≥ |A|, where supp(f) and supp(f̂) are the supports of f and f̂ . In this paper we generalize this known result in several directions. In particular, we prove an analogous inequality where the abelian group A is replaced by a transitive right G-set, where G is an ...
