Inverse Fourier transformation of $frac{1}{(1+w^2)^2}$?












2












$begingroup$


I have tried to crack this via basic definition, but I am unable to solve the integral:
$$int_{-infty} ^{infty} frac{1}{(1+w^2)^2} e^{-iwx} dw $$
Kindly guide me a bit.
Thanks in anticipation.

          You can avoid doing the integral if you know the Fourier transform of $1/(1+w^2)$
          (which is $pi e^{-|x|}$) and recall that the Fourier transform converts multiplication
          into convolution.



          Therefore, for $g(x)=e^{-|x|}$,
          $$int_{-infty}^inftyfrac{e^{-iwx},dw}{(1+w^2)^2}
          =g*g(x)=int_{-infty}^infty g(y)g(x-y),dy
          =pi^2int_{-infty}^inftyexp(-|y|-|x-y|),dy.$$

          One can split this into three integrals over intervals where $-|y|-|x-y|$
          is linear on each.
