Fourier inversion theorem

In mathematics, the Fourier inversion theorem says that for many types of functions it is possible to recover a function from its Fourier transform. Intuitively it may be viewed as the statement that if we know all frequency and phase information about a wave then we may reconstruct the original wave precisely.

The theorem says that if we have a function f : R → C {displaystyle f:mathbb {R} ightarrow mathbb {C} } satisfying certain conditions, and we use the convention for the Fourier transform that
