The Convolution Transform Book

In this reprint of the 1955 edition published by Princeton U. Press, Hirschman and Widder examine the operation of convolution applied to sequences or functions in analysis, covering finite and non-finite kernels, variation diminishing transforms, the asymptotic behavior of kernels, the real inversion and representation theories, the Weterstrass Transform, complex inversion theory, and such topics as Bernstein polynomials, the behavior of infinity, quasi-analyticity, and the analytic character of kernels of classes I and II. Readers should have a background in real and complex variable theory. Annotation ©2004 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
