In this paper we apply a method of spectral theory of linear operators [10] to establish relations between the support of a function f on R with properties of its image Tf under a linear operator T : R → R. The classical approach uses analytic continuation of the image Tf into some complex domain (theorems of Paley-Wiener type [4, 5, 6, 7]), and therefore, could not apply to functions whose ima...

Integral transforms play an important rôle in Analytic number theory, the part of Number theory where problems of a number-theoretic nature are solved by the use of various methods from Analysis. The most common integral transforms that are used are: Mellin transforms (Robert Hjalmar Mellin, 18541933), Laplace transforms (Pierre-Simon, marquis de Laplace, 1749-1827) and Fourier transforms (Jose...

Connections between Hankel transforms of different order for L-functions are examined. Well known are the results of Guy [Guy] and Schindler [Sch]. Further relations result from projection formulae for Bessel functions of different order. Consequences for Hankel multipliers are exhibited and implications for radial Fourier multipliers on Euclidean spaces of different dimensions indicated.

We consider Laplace transforms of the Picard-Fuchs differential equations of Calabi-Yau hypersurfaces and calculate their Stokes matrices. We also introduce two different types of Laplace transforms of Gel’fand-KapranovZelevinski hypergeometric systems.

The mode-matching applications to scattering from circular and annular apertures in a thick perfectly conducting plane are reviewed. The Hankel and Weber transforms are utilized to solve the boundary-value problems of circular and annular apertures. Simple electrostatic problems are presented to illustrate the mode-matching method in terms of the Hankel and Weber transforms. Various types of We...
