Octonion quadratic-phase Fourier transform: inequalities, uncertainty principles, and examples

Abstract

In this article, we define the octonion quadratic-phase Fourier transform (OQPFT) and derive its inversion formula, including its fundamental properties such as linearity, parity, modulation, and shifting. We also establish its relationship with the quaternion quadratic-phase Fourier transform (QQPFT). Further, we derive the Parseval formula and the Riemann–Lebesgue lemma using this transform. Furthermore, we formulate two important inequalities (sharp Pitt’s and sharp Hausdorff–Young’s inequalities) and three main uncertainty principles (logarithmic, Donoho–Stark’s, and Heisenberg’s uncertainty principles) for the OQPFT. To complete our investigation, we construct three elementary examples of signal theory with graphical interpretations to illustrate the use of OQPFT and discuss their particular cases.
