Abstract
The Fourier transform operation is an important conceptual as well as computational tool in the arsenal of every practitioner of physical and mathematical sciences. We discuss some of its applications in optical science and engineering, with the goal of providing a broad perspective on the intimate relation between the physical and mathematical concepts that are elegantly interwoven within the theory of Fourier transforms.
