Let the function F be integrable for all real arguments x, such that
∫−∞∞∣F(x)∣dx<∞
and assume that the series
f(τ)=n=−∞∑∞F(2nπ+τ)
converges uniformly for all 0⩽τ⩽2π.
Prove the Poisson summation formula
f(τ)=2π1n=−∞∑∞F^(n)einτ
where F^ is the Fourier transform of F. [Hint: You may show that
2π1∫02πe−imxf(x)dx=2π1∫−∞∞e−imxF(x)dx
or, alternatively, prove that f is periodic and express its Fourier expansion coefficients explicitly in terms of F^.]
Letting F(x)=e−∣x∣, use the Poisson summation formula to evaluate the sum
