The Plancherel theorem is a fundamental result in the field of harmonic analysis, particularly in the context of Fourier transforms and Fourier series. It establishes an important relationship between the \( L^2 \) spaces of functions and distributions, indicating that the Fourier transform is an isometry on these spaces.

Plancherel theorem by Ciro Santilli 37 Updated +Created
Some sources say that this is just the part that says that the norm of a function is the same as the norm of its Fourier transform.
Others say that this theorem actually says that the Fourier transform is bijective.
The comment at math.stackexchange.com/questions/446870/bijectiveness-injectiveness-and-surjectiveness-of-fourier-transformation-define/1235725#1235725 may be of interest, it says that the bijection statement is an easy consequence from the norm one, thus the confusion.
