\section{Fourier on a flat surface}
-%% TODO: replace everywhere "nice" with this definition
+%% FIXME
First, we need to discuss about the class of functions on which the Fourier works at all. We will denote the set of such functions with \(C(\Omega; \mathbb{C})\), that means: continuous bounded functions from \(\Omega\) to the complex numbers. Informally, we will refer to these as ``nice'' functions.
