Let the homogeneous of
L
degree function
g
(
x
) be defined in
N
dimensional space, and let the function
G
(
y
) be its Fourier transform in the distribution sense. The theorem that allows to present the function
G
(
y
) using only the values of function
g
(
x
) on the unit sphere is proved in the chapter for the case
L
> −
N
. The case
N
=3 and
L
= −1 corresponds to the properties of beam transform in 3D space. In the chapter it is shown how the theorem may be used for creation of numerical algorithms for cone-beam tomography.
Let the homogeneous of
L
degree function
g
(
x
) be defined in
N
-dimensional space, and let the function
G
(
y
) be its Fourier transform. In view of homogeneity, the function
g
(
x
) and its Fourier transform in sense of distributions are defined by their values on the unit sphere [GS00]. We will prove the theorem that allows to present the function
G
(
y
) using only the value of function
g
(
x
) on the unit sphere for the case
L
> −
N
.
