90. Compare, e.g., Ref. 86, Ref. 88, Chap. IX. p. 245. For an early account of the history of self-reciprocal functions see Ref. 89. Eigenfunctions to the eigenvalue - 1 are often called skew-reciprocal. In optics, following a paper by Caola (who seems to not have been aware of the history of the subject in mathematics, Ref. 90) in recent years self-reciprocal functions are often referred to as "self-Fourier functions" (in the context of the Fourier transformation). Incidentally, also note the comment in Ref. 91 on the earlier optics literature on the subject.

133. Possibly, it might be appropriate here to not loose sight of the fact that besides the eigenvalue 1 the Fourier transformation has also three more eigenvalues: - 1, ± i.

151. bis: If the function g(x) is a finite polynomial in x its degree cannot exceed 2. Otherwise, the function exp g(x) cannot be a characteristic function. Consequently, in the (non-Gaussian) cases we are interested in the function g(x) cannot be a finite polynomial.
