Fourier uniqueness in even dimensions

In recent work, methods from the theory of modular forms were used to obtain Fourier uniqueness results in several key dimensions (d = 1, 8, 24), in which a function could be uniquely reconstructed from the values of it and its Fourier transform on a discrete set, with the striking application of resolving the sphere packing problem in dimensions d = 8 and d = 24. In this short note, we present an alternative approach to such results, viable in even dimensions, based instead on the uniqueness theory for the KleinGordon equation. Since the existing method for the Klein-Gordon uniqueness theory is based on the study of iterations of Gauss-type maps, this suggests a connection between the latter and methods involving modular forms. The derivation of Fourier uniqueness from the Klein-Gordon theory supplies conditions on the given test function for Fourier interpolation, which are hoped to be optimal or close to optimal.
