This covers all transformations of functions by integrals, including but not limited to the Radon, X-Ray, Hilbert, Mellin transforms. Use (wavelet-transform), (laplace-transform) for those respective transforms, and use (fourier-analysis) for questions about the Fourier and Fourier-sine/cosine ...

Why does it seem I can't apply the Radon transform to the Helmholtz equation?
Say we a function $u$ and a bounded region $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^2$, such that $(\Delta+\lambda)u = 0$ everywhere, and $u=0$ on the boundary. We extend it to the entire plane by defining $u=0$ ...

Qualitative interpretation of Hilbert transform
the well-known Kramers-Kronig relations state that for a function satisfying certain conditions, its imaginary part is the Hilbert transform of its real part.
This often comes up in physics, where ...

Having such integral, how to optimize it in maple?
So we have :
(1/3)*sig0*h^3*(int(int(sin((1/3)*arctan(y, x)), x = 0 .. r), y = 0 .. 2*Pi))
Is it possible to optimise it? (in maple or any other way...)

How do I find the inverse Hankel transform of $k^2e^{-k^2}$?
I am trying to solve:
$f_l(r)=\int_0^{\infty}e^{-k^2}k^4j_l(kr)dk$,
where $j_l$ is the spherical Bessel function of the first kind, for any integer l >= 0.
Thanks in advance for any answers!
