For the Fourier transform convention Ff(ω)=∫R​f(t)e−iωtdt, Fourier inversion at −ω gives f(−ω)=(2π)−1∫R​(Ff)(t)e−iωtdt. Thus transforming twice reflects the argument and multiplies by 2π. The identity holds directly on the Schwartz space, and extends to the L2 space and to tempered distributions. It lets an already known transform pair be used in reverse without another integration.
