Inversion of Fourier Transform

40 Views Asked by At

Let $\mu$ be a finite measure on the sigma algebra $\mathcal{B}$ of the borel set (over the real line).

The Fourier-Transform of $\mu$ is defined to be the function $\hat{\mu} \; : \; \mathbb{R} \to \mathbb{C}$ such that

$\hat{\mu}(t) := \int_{\mathbb{R}}{e^{itx} d\mu(x)}$

Let $\mu,\nu$ be two finite measure on $\mathcal{B}$. I want to show that if $\hat{\mu} = \hat{\nu}$ then $\mu = \nu$.

To prove it if you wish you can use the following lemma

Let $\mu,\nu$ be two finite measure on $\mathcal{B}$ such that

$\mu(\, [a,b) \, ) = \nu( \, [a , b) \, )$ for any $a < b$

then $\mu = \nu$
