The Fourier transform of the theta-series Gaussian #

On a finite-dimensional real inner product space E of dimension n, the Gaussian x ↦ exp (π i τ ‖x‖²) with 0 < im τ is the case b = -π i τ of the Gaussian x ↦ exp (-b ‖x‖²), 0 < re b, whose Fourier transform Mathlib's fourier_gaussian_innerProductSpace computes, and which is a Schwartz function (SchwartzMap.gaussian). Summed over a lattice, these Gaussians give its theta series. In the shape used for the inversion law of theta series,

𝓕 (x ↦ exp (π i τ ‖x‖²)) y = (τ / i) ^ (-n / 2) * exp (π i (-1 / τ) ‖y‖²),

with the complex power cpow, and for even n = 2k the factor is the integer power ((-i) ^ k * τ ^ k)⁻¹.

The Fourier transform of the Gaussian x ↦ exp (π i τ ‖x‖²): for 0 < im τ and n = finrank ℝ E, 𝓕 (x ↦ exp (π i τ ‖x‖²)) y = (τ / i) ^ (-n / 2) * exp (π i (-1 / τ) ‖y‖²), with the principal branch of the complex power; τ / i lies in the right half-plane.

The Fourier transform of the Gaussian x ↦ exp (π i τ ‖x‖²) in even rank: if finrank ℝ E = 2 * k and 0 < im τ, then 𝓕 (x ↦ exp (π i τ ‖x‖²)) y = ((-i) ^ k * τ ^ k)⁻¹ * exp (π i (-1 / τ) ‖y‖²).
