Prove that a \odot b = b \odot a for all a, b ∈ \mathcal{C}^n—i.e., convolution is a commutative operation.
Use (5.8.12) to write a \odot b = F^{-1} [(F\hat{a}) × (F\hat{b})] = F^{-1} [(F\hat{b}) × (F\hat{a})] = a \odot b.
F (a \odot b ) = (F\hat{a}) × (F\hat{b}) and a \odot b = F^{-1} [(F\hat{a}) × (F\hat{b})]. (5.8.12)
