Notes:: For (18.17.1) see Erdélyi et al. (1953b, §10.8(38)). For the first equation in (18.17.2) apply the convolution property of the Laplace transform (§1.14(iii)) to (18.17.34) with $\alpha=0$ . For the second equation combine (18.9.23), (18.9.13), and (18.6.1). For (18.17.3) and (18.17.4) use (18.9.25) and (18.9.26).

§18.17(v) Fourier Transforms

Notes:: For (18.17.16) use (18.5.5), integrate by parts times, expand $e^{{-iy(1-x)}}$ in a Maclaurin series, and integrate term by term. For (18.17.17) use (18.5.5), integrate repeatedly by parts, expand $\mathop{\cos\/}\nolimits\!\left(xy\right)$ in a Maclaurin series, and integrate term by term; the proofs of (18.17.18) and (18.17.19) are similar. See also Watson (1944, §3.32). For (18.17.20) expand $\mathop{\cos\/}\nolimits\!\left(xy\right)$ in a Maclaurin series, make the change of integration variable $1-2x^{2}=t$ , apply (18.5.5), integrate by parts times, and use (10.8.3); the proof of (18.17.21) is similar. For (18.17.22) see Strichartz (1994, §7.6). For (18.17.23) use (18.12.16) and the fact that the Fourier transform of $e^{{-\frac{1}{2}x^{2}}}$ is $e^{{-\frac{1}{2}y^{2}}}$ ; the proofs of (18.17.24), (18.17.27), and (18.17.28) are similar, except that in the case of (18.17.24), (18.12.15) replaces (18.12.16). For (18.17.25) use (18.18.23); similarly for (18.17.26). For (18.17.29) take the inverse Fourier transform and apply (18.17.25). For (18.17.30) consider the Fourier transform of this function instead of the cosine transform, and replace $\mathop{L^{{(n-\frac{1}{2})}}_{{n}}\/}\nolimits\!\left(\frac{1}{2}x^{2}\right)$ by its explicit form (18.5.12); then integrate term by term and rearrange the the consequential finite double sum into a single sum. For (18.17.31) use (18.5.5) and then integrate by parts; similarly for (18.17.32).

§18.17(vi) Laplace Transforms

Notes:: For (18.17.33) expand the exponential in the integral as a power series in and interchange integration and summation. The resulting integral can be evaluated by considering the term $\ell=0$ in (18.18.14). (18.17.33) may also be verified by applying Kummer’s transformation (13.2.39) to (18.17.16). (18.17.34) follows by substituting (18.5.12) into the integrand and performing termwise integration. (18.17.35) follows by use of (18.5.5) and integration by parts.
