the normalization is not a problem. Dear Suominen, than you for the try, but this was not the point. Sympy uses the unitary, ordinary-frequency inverse Fourier transform and there should be not 1/2pi. The problem is much deeper; that final result (without the normalization) is different from

There are two common definitions of inverse Fourier transform depending on how the frequency variable is interpreted. (See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fourier_transform#Other_conventions) The stackexchange post is using the angular frequency ω that differs by the factor 2π from frequency
