BARYCENTRIC TRANSFORMATIONS
Let \(\omega_j\) denote the \(p\)-th roots of \(-1\). By a barycentric transformation of order \(p\geq 1\) of a holomorphic function \(f\) defined on a domain \(D\) with circular symmetry about the origin the author means the transformation \[ f(z)\to M\bigl(p,f(z)\bigr)={2\over p}\sum^{p-1}_{j=0} \omega_j (\omega_j-1)^{-1} f(\omega_jz). \] More generally he considers compositions of transformations of the above type. He discusses the solution of linear equations involving barycentric transforms of an unknown function and also uses Laplace transforms to solve differential equations of the type \[ u^{(n)} (x)=\sum^m_{k=1} a_kM_{p(k)} u(x)+f(x), \] where \(f\) is a given function, \(a_k\) are constants and \(p(k)\) integers.
