I get a wrong result using FourierParameters:
FourierTransform[f, x, w]
InverseFourierTransform[%, w, x]
gives
1/2 Sqrt[\[Pi]/2] (Sign[1 - w] + Sign[1 + w])
Sin[x]/x
which is what I expected. But with the setting of FourierParameters:
FourierTransform[f, x, w, FourierParameters -> {1, -1}]
InverseFourierTransform[%, w, x, FourierParameters -> {1, -1}]
gives
1/2 \[Pi] Sign[1 - w] + 1/2 \[Pi] Sign[1 + w] <--- This is OK
0 <--- Bug?
Other functions e.g. f=1/(1+x^2) transform correctly in both cases.
Gruss Peter
