Abstract
A brief introduction to the fractional Fourier transform and its basic properties is given. Fractional Fourier transform of tempered distributions is studied. Generalized pseudo-differential operators involving two classes of symbols and fractional Fourier transforms are investigated. An application of the fractional Fourier transform in solving a generalized heat equation is given.
