Fast SGL Fourier transforms for scattered data (scientific article)



Abstract: Spherical Gauss-Laguerre (SGL) basis functions, i. e., normalized functions of the type Ln−l−1(l+1/2)(r2)rlYlm(vartheta,varphi), |m|leql<ninmathbbN, Ln−l−1(l+1/2) being a generalized Laguerre polynomial, Ylm a spherical harmonic, constitute an orthonormal polynomial basis of the space L2 on mathbbR3 with radial Gaussian (multivariate Hermite) weight exp(−r2). We have recently described fast Fourier transforms for the SGL basis functions based on an exact quadrature formula with certain grid points in mathbbR3. In this paper, we present fast SGL Fourier transforms for scattered data. The idea is to employ well-known basal fast algorithms to determine a three-dimensional trigonometric polynomial that coincides with the bandlimited function of interest where the latter is to be evaluated. This trigonometric polynomial can then be evaluated efficiently using the well-known non-equispaced FFT (NFFT). We proof an error estimate for our algorithms and validate their practical suitability in extensive numerical experiments.
