Solve the integral equation given by $f(x) + 4 \int_{-\infty}^{\infty} e^{-a|x-t|} f(t) dt = g(x)$ (5) using Fourier transforms. What is the closed form for the solution when $a = 1$ and $g(x) = e^{-|x|}$? Hint: use contour integration.

The Fourier transform of (x)^6 is given by: F[(x)^6] = ∫[from -∞ to ∞] (x)^6 e^(-2πixω) dx Using the property of the Fourier transform, we have: F[(x)^6] = (i/2π) * d^6/dω^6 [∫[from -∞ to ∞] e^(-2πixω) dx] The integral in the above expression is the Fourier Show more…
