Book 6 in the Princeton Mathematical Series. Originally published in 1941. The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press. These editions preserve the original texts of these important books while presenting them in durable paperback and hardcover editions. The goal of the Princeton Legacy Library is to vastly increase access to the rich scholarly heritage found in the thousands of books published by Princeton University Press since its founding in 1905.

The convolution transform includes as special cases such familiar transforms as the Laplace, Fourier-sine, Fourier-cosine, Hankel, Meier, and Weierstrass (or Gauss). As a consequence any general theory about it may serve as a unifying influence for the evergrowing literature concerning integral transforms. Originally published in 1955.

The theory of integral operators constitutes a major branch of analysis, and transforms represent an important subdivision. This volume focuses on the Laplace and Stieltjes transforms. Highly theoretical in its emphasis, this classic treatment was derived from a series of lectures by a prominent Harvard mathematician.
Suitable for graduate-level mathematics majors, this introductory text explores fundamental formulas, the moment problem, monotonic functions, and Tauberian theorems. The" Bulletin of the American Mathematical Society "praised it as "extremely satisfactory," noting that "it will have a most valuable effect both on research and graduate study."

In studies of general operators of the same nature, general convolution transforms are immediately encountered as the objects of inversion. The relation between differential operators and integral transforms is the basic theme of this work, which is geared toward upper-level undergraduates and graduate students. It may be read easily by anyone with a working knowledge of real and complex variable theory. Topics include the finite and non-finite kernels, variation diminishing transforms, asymptotic behavior of kernels, real inversion theory, representation theory, the Weierstrass transform, and complex inversion theory.
