In this paper we prove pointwise and distributional Fourier transform inversion theorems for functions on the real line that are locally of bounded variation, while in a neighbourhood of infinity are Lebesgue integrable or have polynomial growth. We also allow the Fourier transform to exist in the principal value sense. A function is called regulated if it has a left limit and a right limit at each point. The main inversion theorem is obtained by solving the differential equation $df(t)-i\omega f(t)=g(t)$ for a regulated function $f$, where $\omega$ is a complex number with positive imaginary part. This is done using the Henstock--Stieltjes integral. This is an integral defined with Riemann sums and a gauge. Some variants of the integration by parts formula are also proved for this integral. When the function is of polynomial growth its Fourier transform exists in a distributional sense, although the inversion formula only involves integration of functions and returns pointwise values. |
