Hardy's Theorem and the Short‐Time Fourier Transform of Schwartz Functions

The Schwartz space of rapidly decaying test functions is characterized by the decay of the short‐time Fourier transform or cross‐Wigner distribution. Then a version of Hardy's theorem is proved for the short‐time Fourier transform and for the Wigner distribution.
