Exact expansions of Hankel transforms and related integrals
Abstract
The Hankel transform Hn[f(x)](q) = int0infinity xf(x)Jn(qx)dx is studied for integer n>=-1 and positive parameter q. It is proved that the Hankel transform is given by uniformly and absolutely convergent series in reciprocal powers of q, provided special conditions on the function f(x) and its derivatives are imposed. It is necessary to underline that similar formulas obtained previously are in fact asymptotic expansions only valid when q tends to infinity. If one of the conditions is violated, our series become asymptotic series. The validity of the formulas is illustrated by a number of examples.
