@TedShifrin I thought maybe they were referring to some counterexample which can be constructed by way of convolutions

@TedShifrin the norm infinity as well

Hi guys. Does this question have a positive answer? math.stackexchange.com/questions/1572743/…

Are real continuous functions of compact support uniformly continuous over R?

@Danu I tried it with an example and apparently it is no more an isometry. it gave me two contradictory answers and now I'm confused

I would appreciate it if someone can answer this for me. apparently I reached my daily limit for questions

If we choose to define formally the FT of a function by

$$\hat f(\xi) = {1 \over \sqrt{2\pi}}\int_{-\infty}^{\infty} f(x) e^{-2\pi i \xi
x}dx$$

rather than

$$\hat f(\xi) = \int_{-\infty}^{\infty} f(x) e^{-2\pi i \xi x}dx$$

then formulas change. for example

$$\widehat{f \star g} (\xi) = \sqrt{2\pi} \hat f(\xi) \hat g(\xi)$$

rather than

$$\widehat{f \star g} (\xi) = \hat f(\xi) \hat g(\xi)$$

my question is do theorems change also? is the fourier transform still an isometry from $L^1(R) \cap L^2(R)$ to $L^2(R)$? or is their some constant that will pop up?
