Some properties of the spinor fourier transform

Abstract

In this paper, the theory of the spinor Fourier transform introduced in [Batard T, Berthier M, Saint-Jean C, Clifford-Fourier Transform for Color Image Processing, Geometric Algebra Computing for Engineering and Computer Science (E. Bayro-Corrochano and G. Scheuermann Eds.), Springer, London, 2010, pp. 135–161] is further developed. While in the original paper, the transform was determined for vector-valued functions only, it now will be extended to functions taking values in the entire Clifford algebra. Next, two bases are determined under which this Fourier transform is diagonalizable. A main stumbling block for further applications, in particular concerning filter design in the Fourier domain, is the lack of a proper convolution theorem. This problem will be tackled in the final section of this paper
