The sampling theorem, Dirichlet series and Hankel transforms (Q1208559)

Several interesting relations between fundamental theorems and formulas of signal analysis, of analytic number theory and of applied analysis are presented. Using the theory of Dirichlet series with functional equations, from a new summation formula for Hankel transform, the author deduces the generalized forms of the Whittaker-Kotelnikov-Shannon sampling theorem as well as the Brown-Butzer-Splettstößer approximate sampling expansion for non-band limited signal functions. It is also shown that the counterpart to Poisson's summation formula is essentially ``equivalent'' to the well-known functional equation of Riemann's zeta function, to the ``modular relation'' of the theta- function, to the Nielsen-Doetsch summation formula for Bessel functions and to the partial expansion of the periodic Hilbert kernel.
