Suppose I have a summation that looks like
n/2∑a=0a∑b=0n−2b∑c=0c∑d=0α(a,b,c,d)f(c−2d),
where α and f are functions of the indices a,b,c,d, and I want to change these summations in a particular way. I want the argument of the function f to depend on just one index, and for the summation of that corresponding index to be independent of other indices. That is, I want to rewrite the above summation as
∑w∑x∑yn/2∑z=−n/2α(w,x,y,y/2−z)f(z),
where w,x,y have replaced a,b,c. Furthermore, we see that d=y/2−z.
I am having trouble figuring out the range of the three summations. I know there is some freedom involved here and I believe that the w summation can be taken to be
n/2∑w=0
through its identification with the a-summation.
How can I systematically figure out what the remaining limits of summation are (for the x and y summations)?
