+
+Background information
+----------------------
+
+Fourier analysis is fundamentally a method for expressing a function as a
+sum of periodic components, and for recovering the function from those
+components.  When both the function and its Fourier transform are
+replaced with discretized counterparts, it is called the discrete Fourier
+transform (DFT).  The DFT has become a mainstay of numerical computing in
+part because of a very fast algorithm for computing it, called the Fast
+Fourier Transform (FFT), which was known to Gauss (1805) and was brought
+to light in its current form by Cooley and Tukey [CT]_.  Press et al. [NR]_
+provide an accessible introduction to Fourier analysis and its
+applications.
+
+Because the discrete Fourier transform separates its input into
+components that contribute at discrete frequencies, it has a great number
+of applications in digital signal processing, e.g., for filtering, and in
+this context the discretized input to the transform is customarily
+referred to as a *signal*, which exists in the *time domain*.  The output
+is called a *spectrum* or *transform* and exists in the *frequency
+domain*.
+
+Implementation details
+----------------------
+
+There are many ways to define the DFT, varying in the sign of the
+exponent, normalization, etc.  In this implementation, the DFT is defined
+as
+
+.. math::
+   A_k =  \\sum_{m=0}^{n-1} a_m \\exp\\left\\{-2\\pi i{mk \\over n}\\right\\}
+   \\qquad k = 0,\\ldots,n-1.
+
+The DFT is in general defined for complex inputs and outputs, and a
+single-frequency component at linear frequency :math:`f` is
+represented by a complex exponential
+:math:`a_m = \\exp\\{2\\pi i\\,f m\\Delta t\\}`, where :math:`\\Delta t`
+is the sampling interval.
+
+The values in the result follow so-called "standard" order: If ``A =
+fft(a, n)``, then ``A[0]`` contains the zero-frequency term (the mean of
+the signal), which is always purely real for real inputs. Then ``A[1:n/2]``
+contains the positive-frequency terms, and ``A[n/2+1:]`` contains the
+negative-frequency terms, in order of decreasingly negative frequency.
+For an even number of input points, ``A[n/2]`` represents both positive and
+negative Nyquist frequency, and is also purely real for real input.  For
+an odd number of input points, ``A[(n-1)/2]`` contains the largest positive
+frequency, while ``A[(n+1)/2]`` contains the largest negative frequency.
+The routine ``np.fft.fftfreq(n)`` returns an array giving the frequencies
+of corresponding elements in the output.  The routine
+``np.fft.fftshift(A)`` shifts transforms and their frequencies to put the
+zero-frequency components in the middle, and ``np.fft.ifftshift(A)`` undoes
+that shift.
+
+When the input `a` is a time-domain signal and ``A = fft(a)``, ``np.abs(A)``
+is its amplitude spectrum and ``np.abs(A)**2`` is its power spectrum.
+The phase spectrum is obtained by ``np.angle(A)``.
+
+The inverse DFT is defined as
+
+.. math::
+   a_m = \\frac{1}{n}\\sum_{k=0}^{n-1}A_k\\exp\\left\\{2\\pi i{mk\\over n}\\right\\}
+   \\qquad m = 0,\\ldots,n-1.
+
+It differs from the forward transform by the sign of the exponential
+argument and the normalization by :math:`1/n`.
+
+Real and Hermitian transforms
+-----------------------------
+
+When the input is purely real, its transform is Hermitian, i.e., the
+component at frequency :math:`f_k` is the complex conjugate of the
+component at frequency :math:`-f_k`, which means that for real
+inputs there is no information in the negative frequency components that
+is not already available from the positive frequency components.
+The family of `rfft` functions is
+designed to operate on real inputs, and exploits this symmetry by
+computing only the positive frequency components, up to and including the
+Nyquist frequency.  Thus, ``n`` input points produce ``n/2+1`` complex
+output points.  The inverses of this family assumes the same symmetry of
+its input, and for an output of ``n`` points uses ``n/2+1`` input points.
+
+Correspondingly, when the spectrum is purely real, the signal is
+Hermitian.  The `hfft` family of functions exploits this symmetry by
+using ``n/2+1`` complex points in the input (time) domain for ``n`` real
+points in the frequency domain.
+
+In higher dimensions, FFTs are used, e.g., for image analysis and
+filtering.  The computational efficiency of the FFT means that it can
+also be a faster way to compute large convolutions, using the property
+that a convolution in the time domain is equivalent to a point-by-point
+multiplication in the frequency domain.
+
+Higher dimensions
+-----------------
+
+In two dimensions, the DFT is defined as
+
+.. math::
+   A_{kl} =  \\sum_{m=0}^{M-1} \\sum_{n=0}^{N-1}
+   a_{mn}\\exp\\left\\{-2\\pi i \\left({mk\\over M}+{nl\\over N}\\right)\\right\\}
+   \\qquad k = 0, \\ldots, M-1;\\quad l = 0, \\ldots, N-1,
+
+which extends in the obvious way to higher dimensions, and the inverses
+in higher dimensions also extend in the same way.
