Using the language of Riordan arrays, we define a notion of generalized Bernstein polynomials which are defined as elements of certain Riordan arrays. We characterize the general elements of these arrays, and examine the Hankel transform of the row sums and the first columns of these arrays. We propose conditions under which these Hankel transforms possess the Somos-4 property. We use the gener...

With the change of variables U = U*q, substitution into (21) results in UCU*q = Ud. Consequently, the solution vector U of (20) can be obtained from the solution vector q of (22) or q can be obtained from U. Note that if a system of real equations is Toeplitz-plus-Hankel (T + H) , where T i s symmetric Toeplitz and H i s skew-centrosym-metric Hankel, then the equations may be transformed into H...

Abstract. The aim of this paper is to establish an analogue of Logvinenko-Sereda’s theorem for the Fourier-Bessel transform (or Hankel transform) Fα of order α > −1/2. Roughly speaking, if we denote by PWα(b) the Paley-Wiener space of L -functions with FourierBessel transform supported in [0, b], then we show that the restriction map f → f |Ω is essentially invertible on PWα(b) if and only if Ω...

with respect to the Gaussian measure. Macdonald extended it from An−1 to other root systems and verified his conjecture for classical ones by means of the Selberg integrals [M1]. It was established by Opdam in [O1] in full generality using the shift operators. The integral is an important normalization constant for a k-deformation of the Hankel transform introduced by Dunkl [D]. The generalized...

In this paper we apply a method of spectral theory of linear operators [10] to establish relations between the support of a function f on R with properties of its image Tf under a linear operator T : R → R. The classical approach uses analytic continuation of the image Tf into some complex domain (theorems of Paley-Wiener type [4, 5, 6, 7]), and therefore, could not apply to functions whose ima...

In this paper we present an explicit (rank one) function transform which contains several Jacobi-type function transforms and Hankel-type transforms as degenerate cases. The kernel of the transform, which is given explicitly in terms of basic hypergeometric series, thus generalizes the Jacobi function as well as the Bessel function. The kernel is named the Askey-Wilson function, since it provid...
