title: Is it possible to restore an optical object from its low-pass spectrum and its truncated image?
abstract: Let our observations on an arbitrary L(2)-space optical object f(x) consist of its low-pass spectrum and its truncated image, i.e., F(omega)rect(omega/2b) and f(x)rect(x/a), respectively. Can f(x) be restored from the given data? We show that, in general, such a restoration is not possible.
