Fourier-invariant functions with dense zero sets
For every $0\leq\beta\leq1/2$, we construct a nonzero real-valued continuous function $f_\beta$ in $L^1(\mathbb R)\cap L^2(\mathbb R)$ such that $\widehat {f}_\beta=f_\beta$ and $f_\beta(\sqrt{n}/[\log(e+n)]^{\beta})=0$ for all $n\geq 0$. The case $\beta=0$ settles in the negative a question raised by Radchenko and Via...
