Homework Statement
What is the function f(r) s.t
int {d<sup>3</sup>r.f(r).e<sup>-iw.r</sup>= 1/w<sup>2</sup>}
where w = (kx,ky,kz)
Homework Equations
None
The Attempt at a Solution
I tried to directly take Fourier transform of 1/w2 as \int{ d<sup>3</sup>r.1/w<sup>2</sup>.e<sup>iw.r</sup>}. I started integrating dkx bu calculus of residues, calling the denominator kx2 + c2 and evaluating residues at kx = ic with a semi circle in the lower plane etc. However the integral I get from here is with roots and strange exponential terms so I stopped here. So I am asking for a line of approach should I be working in polar coordinates to solve this questions. And also what are some general methods approach n-dimensional Fourier transformations.Thanks
