de la Vallée Poussin means for the Hankel transform. (Q4421603)

This paper deals with the construction of summability methods for the Hankel transform defined by \[ \widehat{f}(y)=\int_0^\infty f(x)(yx)^{-\nu}J_\nu (yx) \,d\mu _\nu (x), \] \(J_\nu\) being the Bessel function of first kind and order \(\nu >-1/2\) and \(d\mu _\nu (x)=(2^\nu \Gamma (\nu +1))^{-1}x^{2\nu +1}\,dx\). Specifically, the authors construct a de la Vallée Poussin kernel for this transform by means of the Hankel convolution and derive explicit representations for it and for its Hankel transform. Asymptotic estimates allow them to conclude that this kernel generates an approximate identity for the Hankel transform. For the entire collection see [Zbl 1007.00035].
