Fourier inversion theorems for integral transforms involving Bessel functions

Abstract

Usually such area of mathematics as differential equations acts as a consumer of results given by functional analysis. This article will give an example of the reverse interaction of these two fields of knowledge. Namely, the derivation and study of integral transforms will be carried out using partial differential equations. We will study generalised Weber-Orr transforms - its invertibility theorems in $f\in L_1\cap L_2$, spectral decomposition, Plancherel-Parseval identity. These transforms possess nontrivial kernel, so spectral decomposition must involve not only continuous spectrum, but also eigen functions which correspond to zero eigen value. We give a new approach to the study of classical and generalized Weber-Orr transforms with a complete derivation of the inversion formulas.
