We know the function g(x), and we can compute its Fourier Transform
.
How can we use the properties of the Fourier Transform and its inverse in order
to compute the solution f(x) of this differential equation? Provide
an expression for ,
the Fourier Transform of f(x), in terms
of
,
frequency variable
,
and the coefficients in the differential equation.
What final step is now required in order to compute the actual solution f(x)of the differential equation,
given your expression for ?
To compute the
derivative in a local region of a
function, what set of weights would you use to multiply consecutive
samples of the function?
If
belongs to a set of orthonormal basis functions, and f(x) is
a function or a set of data that we wish to represent in terms of these basis
functions, what is the basic computational operation we need to perform
involving
and f(x)?
