This Gelfand Triple is very useful for the description of mathematical problems in the area of time-frequency analysis, but also for classical Fourier analysis and engineering applications. Because the involved spaces are Banach spaces, we speak of a Banach Gelfand Triple, in contrast to the widespread concept of rigged Hilbert spaces, which usually involve nuclear Frechet spaces. Still, both concepts serve very similar purposes. Based on the manifold properties of S0(Rd), it has found applications in the derivation of mathematical statements related to Gabor Analysis but also in providing an alternative and more lucid description of classical results, such as the Shannon sampling theory, with a potential to renew the way how Fourier and time-frequency analysis, but also signal processing courses for engineers (or physicists and mathematicians) could be taught in the future. In the present study, we will demonstrate that one could choose a relatively large variety of similar Banach Gelfand Triples, even if one wants to include key properties such as Fourier invariance (an extended version of Plancherel\u2019s Theorem). Some of them appeared naturally in the literature. It turns out, that S0(Rd) is the smallest member of this family. Consequently S0\u2032(Rd) is the largest dual space among all these spaces, which may be one of the reasons for its universal usefulness. This article provides a study of the basic properties following from a short list of relatively simple assumptions and gives a list of non-trivial examples satisfying these basic axioms.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/axioms14040302","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,4,16]],"date-time":"2025-04-16T06:12:06Z","timestamp":1744783926000},"page":"302","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["An Axiomatic Approach to Mild Distributions"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"14","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-9927-0742","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Hans G.","family":"Feichtinger","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Mathematics, University of Vienna, Oskar-Morgenstern-Platz 1, 1090 Vienna, Austria"},{"name":"Acoustic Research Institute OEAW, 1010 Vienna, Austria"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,4,16]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"269","DOI":"10.1007\/BF01320058","article-title":"On a new Segal algebra","volume":"92","author":"Feichtinger","year":"1981","journal-title":"Monatsh.
