Abstract: In this paper extensions of the classical Fourier, fractional Fourier and Radon transforms to superspace are studied. Previously, a Fourier transform in superspace was already studied, but with a different kernel. In this work, the fermionic part of the Fourier kernel has a natural symplectic structure, derived using a Clifford analysis approach. Several basic properties of these three transforms are studied. Using suitable generalizations of the Hermite polynomials to superspace (see [H. De Bie, F. Sommen, Hermite and Gegenbauer polynomials in superspace using Clifford analysis, J. Phys. A 40 (2007) 10441-10456]) an eigenfunction basis for the Fourier transform is constructed.


The author together with \textit{F. Sommen} developed a theory of Clifford analysis in super space [e.g. Adv. Appl. Clifford Algebras 17, 357--382 (2007; Zbl 1129.30034)]. In super space the basic algebra is generated by \(m\) commuting real variables \(x_i\) and \(m\) orthogonal Clifford generators \(e_i\) as well as by \(2n\) anti-commuting variables \(x'_j\) and \(2n\) symplectic Clifford generators \(e'_j\). A super Dirac operator, a super Euler operator and a super Laplace operator may be defined within this setting, and a Clifford analysis can be developed. Here the author studies a Fourier transform, a fractional Fourier transform, and a Radon transform in super space, where the Clifford theory gives rise to the definition of new kernels for these transforms. An eigenfunction basis for the Fourier Transform is constructed using special Hermite polynomials.
