Some properties of the fractional Fourier transform, which is used in information processing, are presented in connection with the tomography transform of optical signals. Relation of the Green function of the quantum harmonic oscillator to the fractional Fourier transform is elucidated.

Generalization of the fractional Fourier transformation to an arbitrary linear lossless transformation an operator approach

S Abe, John T. Sheridan

We develop the operator formalism to show how systematically the fractional Fourier transformation of a wavefunction, recently introduced by Namias (1980), can be derived from the rotation of the corresponding Wigner distribution function in phase space. In this formalism, the phase factor obtained by McBride and Kerr (1987) is seen to come from the caustics of the harmonic oscillator Green function. Then the idea is generalized to the case of an arbitrary area-preserving linear transformation in phase space, and a concept of the special affine Fourier transformation (SAFT) is introduced. An explicit form of the integral representation of the SAFT is given, and some simple examples are presented.
