Find a numerical approximation for an inverse Fourier cosine transform

Contributed by: Wolfram Research

ResourceFunction["NInverseFourierCosTransform"][expr,ω,t]

gives a numerical approximation to the inverse Fourier cosine transform of expr evaluated at the numerical value t, where expr is a function of ω.

Details and Options

The numerical approximation to the inverse Fourier cosine transform of expr is by default defined to be .
Different choices for the definition of the inverse Fourier cosine transform can be specified using the option FourierParameters.
With the setting FourierParameters{a,b}, the inverse Fourier cosine transform computed by ResourceFunction["NInverseFourierCosTransform"] is .
The parameter b in the setting FourierParameters{a,b} must be numeric.
In addition to the option FourierParameters, ResourceFunction["NInverseFourierCosTransform"] can also accept the options available to NIntegrate. These options are passed directly to NIntegrate.

Examples

Basic Examples (2) 

Numerical approximation for an inverse Fourier cosine transform:

In[1]:=
ResourceFunction["NInverseFourierCosTransform"][
 E^(-6 \[Omega]), \[Omega], 1.4]
Out[1]=

Compare with the answer from symbolic evaluation:

In[2]:=
InverseFourierCosTransform[E^(-6 \[Omega]), \[Omega], t]
Out[2]=
In[3]:=
% /. {t -> 1.4}
Out[3]=
