Abstract
Let, for σ > 0, \(\mathcal{B}_\sigma \) be the set of complex functions f ∈ L 1 (ℝ) with the Fourier transforms \(\hat f(x)\smallint _\mathbb{R} e^{ - 2\pi ixt} f(t)dt\) vanishing outside the interval [−σ; σ]. In this paper, we study the problem of the best approximation of the Dirac function δ (which has the Fourier transform with widest support supp\((\hat \delta ) = \mathbb{R}\)) by functions \(f \in \mathcal{B}_\sigma \). More precisely, we consider the quantity inf\(\{ \sum _{n \in \mathbb{Z}} |f(n)|:f \in \mathcal{B}_\sigma ,f(0) = 1\} \) and its extremal functions \(f \in \mathcal{B}_\sigma \).
