Abstract: For fixed real numbers c>0, alpha>frac12, the finite Hankel transform operator, denoted by mathcalHcalpha is given by the integral operator defined on L2(0,1) with kernel Kalpha(x,y)=sqrtcxyJalpha(cxy). To the operator mathcalHcalpha, we associate a positive, self-adjoint compact integral operator mathcalQcalpha=c,mathcalHcalpha,mathcalHcalpha. Note that the integral operators mathcalHcalpha and mathcalQcalpha commute with a Sturm-Liouville differential operator mathcalDcalpha. In this paper, we first give some useful estimates and bounds of the eigenfunctions vp of mathcalHcalpha or mathcalQcalpha. These estimates and bounds are obtained by using some special techniques from the theory of Sturm-Liouville operators, that we apply to the differential operator mathcalDcalpha. If (mun,alpha(c))n and lambdan,alpha(c)=c,|mun,alpha(c)|2 denote the infinite and countable sequence of the eigenvalues of the operators mathcalHc(alpha) and mathcalQcalpha, arranged in the decreasing order of their magnitude, then we show an unexpected result that for a given integer ngeq0, lambdan,alpha(c) is decreasing with respect to the parameter alpha. As a consequence, we show that for alphageqfrac12, the lambdan,alpha(c) and the mun,alpha(c) have a super-exponential decay rate. Also, we give a lower decay rate of these eigenvalues. As it will be seen, the previous results are essential tools for the analysis of a spectral approximation scheme based on the eigenfunctions of the finite Hankel transform operator. Some numerical examples will be provided to illustrate the results of this work.
