Abstract.We determine a class of real valued, integrable functions fix) and corresponding functions MA[x) such that fix) < MA[x) for all x, the Fourier transform MA[t) is zero when |/| > 1, and the value of MA[0) is minimized. Several applications of these functions to number theory and analysis are given.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
