Suppose I have a function f(u), and define g(s)=int(f(u), u from -inf to s), what is the Fourier transform of this function? I could see it may need some additional conditions, or generalized Fourier transforms, etc. Any thoughts?
what's the Fourier transform of this function?

Try integration by parts for the Fourier transform of g, to obtain g' = f in the integrand. That should get you a relationship between the Fourier transform of g and that of f. Dale
