Extending an Isometry in Schwartz Space to Moderately Decreasing Functions

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

The discussion centers on extending the Fourier transform F from Schwartz space S(R) to moderately decreasing functions M(R) while maintaining isometry properties. It is established that there exists a unique extension G: M(R) -> M(R) such that G(g) = F(g) for all g in S(R) and ||G(g)|| = ||g|| for all g in M(R). The proof involves demonstrating that F is one-to-one, onto, and linear, utilizing the convergence of sequences from M(R) to S(R) to establish the existence and uniqueness of G.

Homework Statement



let S(R) be the schwartz space, M(R) be the set of moderately decreasing functions, F be the Fourier transform

Suppose F:S(R)->S(R) is an isometry, ie is satisfies ||F(g)|| = ||g|| for every g in S(R). Show that there exists a unique extension G: M(R)->M(R) which is an isometry, ie a function G: M(R)->M(R) so that for any g in S(R) we have G(g) = F(g), and for any g in M(R) we have ||G(g)|| = ||g||.

hint: You may use that for any g in M(R) there exists a sequence {g_n} subset in S(R) such that ||g_n - g|| converges to 0

note: make sure you prove that both that G exists, and that it is unique

Homework Equations





The Attempt at a Solution



i was thinking of showing that F is 1-1, onto, and linear, just to expand my options. also using the hint to show that there exists F(h_k) converging to F(f), and then ||h_k - f|| converges to 0, and then defining h_k(t) as equal to f(t) for all |t| < k, and 0 otherwise

i heard that to do it for the L2, you extend it by density, but i don't know what that means
