Can anyone explain what does the author mean by the statement below?
Thanks
page 27 of this paperI don't understand the relation between the Fourier transform and translational invariance.Let’s take advantage of translational invariance in d dimensions, ##x_μ → x_μ + a_μ## , to Fourier decompose the scalar field:
## \phi(z,x^\mu)=e^{ik_\mu x^\mu} f_k(z) ##
Thanks
