In mathematics, the Mellin transform is an integral transform that may be regarded as the multiplicative version of the two-sided Laplace transform. This integral transform is closely connected to the theory of Dirichlet series, and is often used in number theory, mathematical statistics, and the theory of asymptotic expansions; it is closely related to the Laplace transform and the Fourier transform, and the theory of the gamma function and allied special functions. The Mellin transform of a function ''f'' is : The inverse transform is : The notation implies this is a line integral taken over a vertical line in the complex plane. Conditions under which this inversion is valid are given in the Mellin inversion theorem. The transform is named after the Finnish mathematician Hjalmar Mellin. ==Relationship to other transforms== The two-sided Laplace transform may be defined in terms of the Mellin transform by : and conversely we can get the Mellin transform from the two-sided Laplace transform by : The Mellin transform may be thought of as integrating using a kernel ''x''''s'' with respect to the multiplicative Haar measure, , which is invariant under dilation , so that the two-sided Laplace transform integrates with respect to the additive Haar measure , which is translation invariant, so that . We also may define the Fourier transform in terms of the Mellin transform and vice versa; if we define the two-sided Laplace transform as above, then : We may also reverse the process and obtain : The Mellin transform also connects the Newton series or binomial transform together with the Poisson generating function, by means of the Poisson–Mellin–Newton cycle. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Mellin transform」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
