The truncated Fourier operator is the operator (\mathscr{F}_E) of the form (\mathscr{F}_E=P_E\mathscr{F}P_E), where ((P_Ex)(t)=χ_E(t)x(t)), and (χ_E(t)) is the indicator function of the set (E). In the presented first part of the work, the basic properties of the operator (\mathscr{F}_E) according to the set (E) are discussed. Among these properties there are the following one. The operator (\mathscr{F}_E): 1. has a not-trivial null-space; 2. is strictly contractive; 3. is a normal operator; 4. is a Hilbert-Schmidt operator; 5. is a trace class operator.20 pagesClassical Analysis and ODEsSpectral Theory47A38, 47B35, 47B06, 47A10text
