1 Introduction (the idea of co-Poisson)
Weexplaintheunderlyingframeworkandthegeneralcontoursofthiswork. Throughoutthepaper,
we have tried to formulate the theorems in such a form that one can, for most of them, read their
statements without having studied the preceeding material in its entirety, so a sufficiently clear
idea of the results and methods is easily accessible. Setting up here all notations and necessary
preliminaries for stating the results would have taken up too much space.
The Riemann zeta function ζ(s) = 1 + 1 + 1 +... is a meromorphic function in the entire
1s 2s 3s
complex plane with a simple pole at s = 1, residue 1. Its functional equation is usually written in
one of the following two forms:

The latter form of the functional equation is related to the expression of ζ(s) as the right Mellin
transform of a tempered distribution with support in [0,+ ), which is self-reciprocal under the

Weinberger[13]. Inoneoftheapproachestothisidentity,westartwithafunctiong onthepositive

it has allowed the definition of some novel Hilbert spaces [3] of entire functions in relation with
the Riemann zeta function and Dirichlet L-functions (the co-Poisson idea is in [4] on the adeles of
an arbitrary algebraic number field K; then, the study of the related Hilbert spaces was begun for
K =Q. Further results were obtained in [7].)

We mentioned the Riemann zeta function and how it relates to χ0(s)=πs−12ΓΓ(1(−s2s)) and to the

cosine transform. Let us now briefly consider the Dedekind zeta function of the Gaussian number
field Q(i) and how it relates to χ(s)= Γ(1−s) and to the transform. The transform is

De Branges and V. Rovnyak have obtained [1, 28] rather complete results in the study of the
Hankel transform of order zero f(x) 7→ g(y) = 0∞√xyJ0(xy)f(x)dx from the point of view of
understanding the support property of being zeroRand with transformagainzero in a giveninterval
(0,b). They obtained an isometric expansion (Theorem 1 of section 2) and also the detailed de-
scription of the related spaces of entire functions ([1]). The more complicated case of the Hankel
transforms of non-zero integer orders was treated by J. and V. Rovnyak [29, 30]. These, rather
complete, results are an indication that the Hankel transform of order zero or of integer order is
easier to understand than the cosine or sine transforms, and that doing so thoroughly could be
useful to better understand how to try to understand the cosine and sine transforms.

Itisanoteworthyfactthatthesupportcondition,initiallyconsideredbydeBrangesandV.Rovnyak,
andwhich, nowadays,is alsoseen to be in relationwith the co-Poissonidentities, has turnedout to
be related to the relativistic causality governing the propagation of solutions to the Klein-Gordon
equation. This has been established in [9] where we obtained as an application of this idea the
isometric expansion of [1, 28] in a novel manner. It was furthermore proven in [9] that the
H
transform is indeed an (absolute) scattering, in fact the scattering from the past boundary to the
future boundary of the Rindler wedge 0 < t < x for solutions of a first order, two-component

(“Dirac”), form of the KG equation.
In the present paper, which is completely independent from [9], we shall again study the -
H
transform and show in particular how to recover in yet a different way the earlier results of [1, 28]
and also we shall extend them. This will be based on the methods from [5, 6], and uses the
techniques motivated by the study of the co-Poisson idea [8]. Our exposition will thus give a fully
detailed account of the material available in summarized form in [5, 6]. Then we proceed with a
development of these methods to provide the elucidation of the (two dimensions bigger) spaces of
functions constant in (0,a) and with -transforms constant in (0,a).
H
Theuseoftempereddistributionsisanimportantpointofourapproach5; alsoonemayenvision
the co-Poisson idea as asking not to completely identify a distribution with the linear functional
it “is”. In this regard it is of note that the distributions which arise following the method of [5]
are seen in the present case of the study of the -transform to have a very natural formulation as
H
differences of boundary values of analytic functions, that is, as hyperfunctions [23]. We do not use
the theory of hyperfunctions as such, but could not see how not to mention that this is what these
distributions seem to be in a natural manner.
The paper contains no number theory. And, the reader will need no prior knowledge of [2];
some familiarity with the m-function of Hermann Weyl [10, 21, 26] is necessary at one stage of
the discussion (there is much common ground, in fact, between the properties of the m-function
and the axioms of [2]). The reproducing kernel in any space with the axioms of [2] has a specific
appearance (equation (109) below) which has been used as a guide to what we should be looking
for. The validity of the formula is re-proven in the specific instance considered here6. Regarding
the differential equations governing the deformation, with respect to the parameter a >0 7, of the
5at the bottom of page 456 of [1] the formulas given for A(a,z) and B(a,z) as completed Mellintransforms are
lacking terms which would correspond to Dirac distributions; possibly related to this, the isometric expansion as
presentedinTheoremIIof[1]islackingcorrespondingterms. Theexactisometricexpansionappearsin[28]andthe

to the reproducing kernel, equation (109)) which are obtained by the method of [5] turn out not
to be normalized according to the rule in general use in [2]. Each rule of normalization has its
own advantages; here the equations are obtained in the Schro¨dinger and Dirac forms familiar from
the spectral theory of linear second order differential equations [10, 21, 26]. This allows to make
reference to the well-knownWeyl-Stone-Titchmarsh-Kodairatheory [10,21, 26], and to understand
as a scattering. Regarding spaces with the axioms of [2], the articles of Dym [14] and Remling

The author has been confronted with a dilemma: a substantial portion of the paper (most of
chapters 5, 6, 8) has a general validity for operators having a kernel of the multiplicative type
k(xy) possessing certain properties in common with the cosine, sine or transforms. But on the
H
other hand the (essentially) unique example where all quantities arising may be computed is the
transform (and transforms derived from it, or closely related to it, as the Hankel transforms of
H
integer orders). We have tried to give proofs whose generality is obvious, but we also made full use
of distributions, as this allows to give to the quantities arising very natural expressions. Also we
never hesitate using arguments of analyticity although for some topics (for example, some aspects
involvingcertainintegralequations andFredholm determinants)this is certainly not reallyneeded.
