Inverse Fourier transformation of $frac{1}{(1+w^2)^2}$?
$begingroup$
I have tried to crack this via basic definition, but I am unable to solve the integral:
$$int_{-infty} ^{infty} frac{1}{(1+w^2)^2} e^{-iwx} dw $$
Kindly guide me a bit.
Thanks in anticipation.

You can avoid doing the integral if you know the Fourier transform of $1/(1+w^2)$
(which is $pi e^{-|x|}$) and recall that the Fourier transform converts multiplication
into convolution.
Therefore, for $g(x)=e^{-|x|}$,
$$int_{-infty}^inftyfrac{e^{-iwx},dw}{(1+w^2)^2}
=g*g(x)=int_{-infty}^infty g(y)g(x-y),dy
=pi^2int_{-infty}^inftyexp(-|y|-|x-y|),dy.$$
One can split this into three integrals over intervals where $-|y|-|x-y|$
is linear on each.
